Tips:
1. If you are out of the pot, you will chop the chicken and the chicken will fall apart.
2. The amount of pepper salt can be adjusted according to the length of the pickling time, if the pickling time is short, wipe a little more, so as to facilitate the flavor as soon as possible, if the pickling time is more sufficient, wipe a little less, otherwise it will be very salty.
