Shanghai-style Chicken Soup is a comforting and nourishing dish in Shanghai cuisine. It is made by simmering chicken with various herbs and spices to create a flavorful broth. The chicken is usually cooked with ginger, garlic, green onions, and Chinese herbs like goji berries and dried shiitake mushrooms. The slow simmering process allows the flavors to meld together, resulting in a rich and aromatic soup. This soup is often served as a starter or as a main course with steamed rice. It is believed to have health benefits and is especially popular during the colder months.
