Step7:Drain the boiled chicken. Sprinkle some salt and rice wine. Add ginger slices. Mix well and marinate for 20 minutes. The amount of salt can be more, because the soup condensed in the steam pot will dilute the salty taste.

The soup in the steam pot is completely formed by the water evaporated from the soup pot and condensed into the steam pot through the air hole at the bottom of the steam pot. That is to say, the soup in the steam pot is made by condensation of water vapor. It keeps the original taste of the food to the maximum extent. It is very delicious.
