The reporters of 皇冠体育app Tibet Online came to a village in the Nyingchi prefecture, where there is a famous Tibetan cuisine, Lunang Stone Pot Chicken cooked in a special stone pot.
The cuisine uses local Tibetan chicken, which lives on the plateau at an elevation of 3,200 to 4, 000 meters. This kind of chicken is good at flying because of the small figure. The chicken meat tastes chewy.

Moreover, the auxiliary ingredients are also specific and important, including gymnadnia conopsear broyn, codonopsis pilosula and Tibetan fritillaria thun-bergli.

The gymnadnia conopsear broyn, also as a Tibetan medicine, is effective in nourishing yin and kidney.
