But in order to install this B, I decided to introduce my favorite food since childhood! ! ! ! There are many kinds of bacon, and our bacon in Xiangxi, Hunan Province belongs to smoked bacon. It's not a snack, but I can cook this dish, so I forced A B.
Every household kills pigs every year, except some fresh pork. Excess meat will be used to cure bacon. As early as when killing pigs, the butcher would cut the pork into strips, then make a hole in the cut pork, then tie a knot with the prepared leaves through the meat hole, and then put the fresh meat in a big jar and marinate it with salt for a period of time.
After fresh pork is salted, the meat will hang in the fire hall, and then the tea tree will wither (that is, the residue after the oil is pressed from the tea tree fruit, which is particularly fragrant and can also be used for fishing, with good results. ) smoldering for three days. After smoking for three days, the water was basically dry, and there was a faint tea smell on the bacon.
In fact, the bacon is already a semi-finished product at this time, and nothing needs to be done for the rest of the time. Just cook normally in the fireplace room and let the bacon slowly smoke into dried meat. Besides bacon, we can also make bacon, duck, chicken and beef patties. Anyway, we can do this as long as it is meat.
Next, it's time to talk about how to eat. Bacon may not be known to everyone, but how to cook bacon can be found by everyone in our village, even a primary school student! ! !
Cook the cured bacon once until the soup turns yellow, and then wash the bacon. In fact, this process is mainly to clean the bacon and dilute the salt in the bacon.
Put the cleaned bacon on the chopping block and cut it into thin and even pieces (we like to cut it into 6×3× 1 cm). Boil these diced pieces in water until they are half cooked. Then change the soup. This soup is delicious to stay here. This time, in addition to the sliced meat, we will also put some dried bamboo shoots and dried tea tree mushrooms in a semi-full state.
Even after adding water twice, the soup is still a little salty (yes, there is too much salt. If the bacon you bought is not salty twice, it must be fake). At this time, dried bamboo shoots and Agrocybe aegerita will absorb excess salt.
The salt in the thick soup will fill the stem cells of Agrocybe aegerita and dried bamboo shoots, repel the soaked water, and make the soup taste not salty, just right. (The principle refers to high school biology knowledge, the role of cell wall! ! ! )
I found this photo online. In fact, there will be a lot of soup in my dish.
When the dried bamboo shoots and Agrocybe aegerita are completely full, this dish is almost ready. At this time, the bacon has become soft and hard after several times of cooking, and it is fragrant and delicious, while the dried bamboo shoots and Agrocybe aegerita have a fresh smell of bacon besides being crisp and refreshing. In fact, half the effort and taste of this dish are on dried bamboo shoots and Agrocybe aegerita. That's what the so-called "unfortunate job" means. Only by giving full play to the taste of the material itself is the real meaning of cooking, which is both nutritious and delicious.
