Samgyetang is a traditional Korean soup made with a whole young chicken stuffed with glutinous rice, ginseng, garlic, jujube (Korean dates), and sometimes chestnuts and ginkgo nuts.
The chicken is simmered until tender, resulting in a nutritious and restorative soup.
Samgyetang is often eaten during the hot summer months, as it is believed to help replenish energy and improve stamina.
