4 Precautions
edit
1. Pig bone drowning is also the process of flying water. Flying water is to boil the main ingredients in water, which can not only remove the fishy smell, but also completely remove the impurities on the surface of pig bones. Don't use cold water when flying water, because meat has experienced the process of water from cold to open, and its nutrition loss is serious. If boiled in water, the meat will solidify protein when heated, which will affect the taste. It is best to boil water for about 7 ~ 8 minutes. 2. Boil the pork bones in cold water, so that the raw materials can release all the nutrients with the increase of water temperature. Therefore, after flying over the water, you must immediately shower the pork bones with cold water, and when cooking in the pot again, the meat quality will not shrink due to cold. 3. When boiling the pork bone soup, you should use large fire 15 minutes before turning to slow fire, and be careful not to open the lid to avoid the loss of umami flavor. 4. Adding a few fennel seeds can not only dispel the fishy smell of pig bones, but also enhance the taste of soup, but be careful not to put more, otherwise it will cover up the umami taste of pig bones. 5. Adding a little vinegar to the pork bone soup can not only remove fishy smell, but also promote the dissolution of nutrients, especially make calcium more soluble in the soup and more easily absorbed by the human body. 6. Yam and walnut kernels must be put after the pig bones are cooked. Don't put them too early and don't cook them for a long time. Otherwise, the color of walnut skin will gradually fade during the cooking process, and it will affect the color of the soup when it is dissolved in the soup. 7. When putting salt, put it after the soup has been cooked. Don't put it at the beginning or when it is half cooked, because if the salt is cooked for too long, it will react chemically with the meat, so that the protein in the meat will be solidified and the soup will become weak. 8. After adding the salt, cover and turn to high heat and cook for a while, which will make the salt taste blend into the meat, and the soup will be thicker and fresher. 9. Don't add too much salt, as long as it has a little taste, and the soup should be light, which is more conducive to your health.
Apple and Sydney ribs soup
In the summer, the weather is hot, and even the appetite becomes worse. It is inevitable to eat some frozen cold drinks to help cool off the heat, and there is also polarization on the table: light or strong dishes that stimulate the taste buds.
After eating so casually for a few days, my digestive function also declined, and my daughter began to have mild diarrhea. I remember that there seemed to be a parenting magazine that said that cooked apples could stop diarrhea, which was simple and effective without any side effects.
So I cooked a big apple and handed it to her. My daughter tasted it twice and refused to open her mouth again, saying it was the worst thing she had ever eaten.
What should we do?
Apple porridge doesn't seem to be very delicious either. Look at several pears under the coffee table, then stew the soup and make it into the sparerib soup that my daughter likes:
1, materials: apple 1 piece, Sydney 1 piece, moderate amount of ribs, a little ginger and salt.
2. Wash apples and pears, remove the core and cut into pieces for later use.
2. Blanch the ribs in boiling water and remove the blood.
3, add the right amount of water to the pot, pat a large piece of ginger, add ribs, apples and pears, and use the electric pressure cooker to "cook soup".
4. Add salt after cooking.
Relatively speaking, this soup is relatively light, and the taste of fruit is all melted into the soup, so it tastes sweet and fruity, and it combines the delicious ribs, which is quite good.
