The invention of fried rice has nothing to do with Li Hongzhang. Li Hongzhang was from the late Qing Dynasty, and fried rice has a longer history. For example, the famous Yangzhou fried rice in China was formed in the Sui Dynasty. Yangzhou fried rice was born out of broken golden rice, that is, fried rice with eggs. According to legend, it originated from the broken golden rice that Su Yang, the king of Yue in Sui Dynasty, loved to eat, further indicating that the fried rice period appeared earlier.
Fried rice is a common food, which is made of cooked rice, some vegetables and eggs. There are many kinds of fried rice, such as Yangzhou fried rice, sausage fried rice, tomato fried rice, curry fried rice, bacon fried rice and so on. There are unique styles everywhere, and the general public regards fried rice as breakfast or dinner. Because fried rice is simple to make, takes less time and is rich in nutrition, it is very sought after by the public.
Precautions for fried rice:
1, be sure to use overnight meals.
The freshly cooked rice is sticky and moist, and if it is directly used for fried rice, it will make the taste sticky. Frozen overnight rice will consume some water, and its taste is hard, which is suitable for secondary cooking. Before the fried rice, the overnight rice will be slightly loosened, so that the fried rice will not agglomerate.
2. Add rice wine to the egg mixture.
Add a spoonful of rice wine to the beaten egg liquid. Alcohol can help protein in eggs to solidify faster when heated, and eggs are not easy to get old and dry. After the egg liquid is beaten, you can add some seasonings such as salt and pepper, and then pour it into the rice and stir well.
3, the fire quickly stir fry
From the beginning of cooking to the end of cooking, fire must be fired, so that rice will not stick to the pot easily. But you can't fry it for too long, the rice will dry and hard, and the nutrition of the eggs will lose faster. It takes at least three minutes to quickly fry an egg fried rice, so as to ensure that the nutrition and taste of fried rice are not destroyed.
