Dry pot dish is a popular dish in recent years. It was first popular in Hunan, Hubei and Jiangxi provinces, and then it was introduced and promoted by Sichuan chefs, forming a series of dry pot dishes, such as dry pot chicken miscellaneous, dry pot chicken, dry pot rabbit, dry pot frog, tube bamboo shoot chicken and so on.
Dry pot dishes are named after hot pot. There are many hot pot soups to adapt to scalding all kinds of raw materials; However, the dry pot vegetable soup juice is relatively small, and it is generally eaten directly as a dish. The first form of dry cooking is to fry the dishes in the kitchen, put them into a pig iron pot and serve them on the table. In order to prevent the dishes from affecting the taste after cooling, heat them with a small fire and move them with a wooden shovel to prevent them from sticking to the pot. Later, the dry pot dishes gradually evolved into eating the main ingredients, then using the dregs of the soup (or adding soup) to scald the rest of the raw materials or adding the rest of the raw materials by the chef for processing. This is something like a hot pot.
When making dry pot dishes, the main ingredients are generally not thick, and the finished dishes are not thick, and the soup is less, the oil is more and the flavor is rich. The flavor types of dry pot dishes generally include sour and spicy flavor, pickled pepper flavor, spicy flavor, cumin spicy flavor, fish flavor and so on. Dry-pot dishes can be matched with different auxiliary materials according to different main materials, which play a complementary role in taste, such as chicken offal with Xiaoqing red pepper, rabbit meat with potatoes, chicken with tube bamboo shoots and so on. According to the nature of the main ingredients, you can make crispy and fresh-smelling dry-cooked dishes (dry-cooked chicken offal), dry-cooked and moist dry-cooked dishes (dry-cooked rabbit), and soft-flavored dry-cooked dishes (bamboo shoots and chicken). Below, I will tell the public about three popular methods and key techniques.
