Oyster sauce is a seasoning made by boiling fresh oysters for a long time. At present, the main raw material for producing oyster sauce is silk oyster, but the cost of edible oil is relatively low, and the price is relatively high when it is sold in the market. However, the oyster sauce we usually buy is not pure. Sugar, salt, monosodium glutamate and mushrooms are added in the processing. Although it can be fresh, the fresh effect is worse than the real oyster sauce.

First, how is the authentic oyster sauce made?

Authentic oyster sauce is actually not real oil, but the soup left over from oyster processing. After a long time of concentration, you will get thicker oyster sauce, which has high nutritional value and delicious taste, and plays an important role in improving the taste and increasing the umami flavor. However, the mass-produced oyster sauce is not pure, and many ingredients will be added during the processing. This processing method will slightly reduce the preservation ability of oyster sauce.

Second, the use of oyster sauce

Oyster sauce can have many different uses. It can be used for cooking, making cold dishes and making various sauces. But when eating oyster sauce, we must pay attention to adding oyster sauce before the dishes are hot, which will make its refreshing effect more excellent and the taste of the dishes more attractive. When using oyster sauce as sauce, mix well with the broth. When the dish is almost cooked, put the sauce into the pot, so that oyster sauce can play a good role. Never put oyster sauce directly in the pot.

Third, the benefits of eating oyster sauce

Usually, when cooking dishes, people will put in a proper amount of oyster sauce, which can enhance the taste and fragrance and make the cooked dishes more attractive. Eating proper amount of oyster sauce can also make the human body absorb rich trace elements and minerals, as well as some plant proteins and taurine, which can meet people's needs for various nutrients during normal work, promote human intelligence development and relieve brain fatigue.
