Chestnut and water chestnut chicken soup

Overview

Although it is already the winter solstice, the weather here is still crisp and clear in autumn, so it is not advisable to take a large amount of tonic. It is more suitable to nourish yin, moisturize dryness, and tonify the body with soups. In autumn and winter, we like to make soup with chestnuts, paired with chicken soup made with water chestnuts and corn. The soup is sweet and delicious.
