The head chef teaches you not to use mud to make "called flower chicken", which is fragrant and enjoyable to eat with your hands


Generally, the production of flower chickens is wrapped with lotus leaves, and then wrapped in mud, which is easier to find for people in the countryside, but it is not very convenient for people in the city.
