人参鸡汤/Ginseng chicken soup/삼계탕


人参鸡汤/Ginseng chicken soup/삼계탕
Dear friends, this coming Monday is the Chobok (초복) in Korea, is the day that Koreans enjoy the Ginseng Chicken Soup/ Samgyetang.
Samgyetang is a hot soup for hot summer days. It is especially popular to eat this chicken soup on sambok (삼복) days, which are three distinct days of the lunar calendar — Chobok (초복), Jungbok (중복), and Malbok (말복) - which are commonly among the hottest and most sultry days in Korea.[ It is believed to eat the soup thr...eetimes in this period is good for your health.
Samgyetang (Korean pronunciation: [sʰamɡjetʰaŋ]) means ginseng (kor. insam) - chicken (kor. gye) - soup (kor. tang). It consists primarily of a whole young chicken (poussin) - filled with garlic and rice -, scallion and spices, among them jujube and Korean ginseng (source:wikipedia)
亲爱的朋友们,在这来临的星期一是“初伏”Chobok (초복),是韩国人家家户户都会准备享用人参鸡汤的日子。
但在韓國是在炎炎夏日食用、因為韓國人認爲只有在很熱的天氣吃、體內不好的東西隨汗水排出、讓人蔘雞這樣滋補的東西墊底、才有益身體健康。
根据农历,一年之中,有三天是最热的日子,被称为“三伏”;初伏Chobok (초복), 中伏Jungbok (중복), 末伏Malbok (말복) 。
韓式蔘雞湯(朝鮮漢字:蔘鷄湯;諺文:삼계탕)韓國的傳統名菜之一。以全隻嫩雞、腹中塞入糯米、佐以紅棗、薑、蒜和人蔘长时间炖煮製成。食用時配以蔥、鹽和胡椒。
