📋 Accurate food ratio and ingredient list

The ginkgo steamed duck we are going to make today is a nourishing dish that is particularly suitable for lung cancer patients in their recovery stage. First of all, we need to get all the materials ready. The core ingredient is 200 grams of ginkgo, which must be the net content after shelling. It is probably enough to buy about 500 grams of shelled fruit. When choosing a duck, choose a white duck with a weight of about 1,500 grams to 2,000 grams. The ideal weight is between 1,500 grams and 2,000 grams. If it is too thin, the meat will be woody, and if it is too fat, it will be greasy. In terms of ingredients, prepare a few slices of ginger, two sections of green onions, 20 peppercorns, a little cooking wine and salt. In addition, you need to prepare some clear soup. If there is no broth, you can also use water and add some chicken essence. About 500 ml is needed. This clear and quantified list of materials can be followed when you go to the vegetable market to make sure you don’t miss anything.

🍳 Step-by-step operation process: from preparation to serving

The first step is to deal with the ginkgo that has a unique color and bold style. Then, boil a pot of water. After the water boils, pour in the ginkgo fruits that have had their shells removed, and cook for 3 to 5 minutes. After this, under such circumstances, the thin brown skin existing on the surface can be easily torn off. After peeling, be sure to use a toothpick or the tip of a small knife to remove the core of the ginkgo, which is dyed with eye-catching symbolic colors and thick fonts, that is, the germ. Since the core is slightly toxic and we are making it for patients, we must not be lazy in this step. Blanch the processed ginkgo fruits in boiling water, remove them, drain and set aside.

Next, enter the second step, which is to process the duck, clean all parts of the white duck, and then use kitchen scissors or a boning knife to complete the deboning operation of the whole duck. If novices find it too difficult to remove the bones, they can directly ask the enthusiastic stall owner to help, or they can cut the duck into larger pieces themselves. However, in order to make the final product more beautiful and taste better, it is recommended to remove the bones. Cut the boneless duck meat into square pieces with a side length of 2 cm. Marinate it with a small amount of cooking wine and ginger slices for 15 minutes to remove the fishy smell.

The third step is to mix and season. Place the processed ginkgo and duck meat pieces into a large bowl to mix them evenly. Then add green onion slices, ginger slices, peppercorns, and a little salt, and then pour the prepared clear soup. The amount of clear soup should just cover two-thirds of the ingredients.

Next, enter the fourth step. Steaming operation is carried out on the pot table. The water in the steamer needs to be added to a sufficient amount at one time. Place a large bowl into the steamer so that it is in a suitable position, then cover it with a lid and heat it over high heat until After steam is generated in the pot, turn the heat to medium-low. Steam slowly for two hours until the duck meat becomes soft and mushy. Stop cooking when the duck meat can be easily pierced with chopsticks. After turning off the fire source, select and remove the green onion, ginger and Sichuan peppercorns. In this way, this therapeutic dish that can replenish weakness, calm asthma symptoms, remove excess water from the body and reduce swelling is declared successful.

🔥Key points of cooking and cooking tips

The secret to the success of this dish lies in the specific required heat and precise timing. The steaming time must be sufficient, two hours is the minimum. By steaming in this way, the duck meat, which is rich in nutrients and contains a variety of colloids, can be fully and completely steamed out of the nutrients and colloids, thereby promoting the quality of the duck meat to a level that can be easily melted in the mouth. This state is particularly friendly to patients with physical problems and weak digestive functions. In addition, during the processing of ginkgo, the prominently located one, with a bright pink color and a bold font, is the core removal step, which is a key point to ensure that it is safe to eat and cannot be omitted. Moreover, don’t add too much salt, just add a small amount to bring out the basic taste and bring out the umami taste, because what this dish tastes is the original flavor of the ingredients themselves.

🎯 Taste adjustment skills and flavor characteristics

The texture and flavor of the finished product are very distinctive. The duck meat is soft and rotten, the soup is clear and sweet, and the ginkgo is soft and glutinous with a slightly chewy texture, and has a unique and quiet aroma. If you want to change the taste, you can try another classic combination: schisandra stew. Select 50 grams of Schisandra chinensis, pack it properly in a gauze bag, put it into a stew pot together with 250 grams of chopped lean pork or duck meat, add water until the ingredients are submerged, simmer for 1.5 hours, and add a little salt to season before putting it in the pot. This soup tastes slightly sour and salty that is unique to Schisandra chinensis. It has the effect of nourishing the lungs and kidneys, and can relieve coughs and asthma. It is especially suitable for patients who feel short of breath and fatigue. In terms of taste, you can adjust the amount of water according to your preference to control its concentration.

⚠️ Tips for newbies to avoid pitfalls and nutrition adaptation instructions

Here is a special reminder for novice friends. First, although ginkgo is very good, it is not suitable for excessive consumption. According to the proportion we have prescribed, just eat it at one time and do not add any extra. Secondly, if the patient's appetite is not very good, the steamed oil can be removed before eating to reduce the greasy feeling. Thirdly, these two dishes are both mild dietary prescriptions with good nutritional adaptability. They are rich in protein and a variety of trace elements and can effectively replenish the patient's physical strength.

First of all, it should be emphasized that although the preparation methods of the above home-cooked dishes can greatly help the recovery of lung cancer, from an essential level, they belong to the category of auxiliary conditioning. Everyone's condition is different, and the actual application process will also have different situations. Before following this method, be sure to consult with the attending physician or professional nutritionist to ensure that it fits the patient's current constitution and treatment plan. Only through scientific and reasonable combination can the maximum value of dietary therapy be fully utilized, thereby helping relatives achieve better recovery.
