In fact, marinated vegetables are very easy to cook. As long as there is a pot of fragrant brine, it is ok to cook the materials until the heat is over. It is really convenient. Friends who have cooked marinated vegetables know that the bittern is more fragrant, and if it is properly preserved, it will be heavier and more fragrant.
Many friends think it is troublesome to make their own brine at home, and they are willing to use the finished brine sold in the supermarket. I have also used Lee Kum Kee's brine, which tastes really good, but making their own brine will be more suitable for their own taste, and the cost is super low ~ ~: P
So, how can we make a pot of fragrant brine?
Materials for making brine:
(Calculated by 10 bowl of water)
3 pieces of star anise (aniseed), fennel 1 teaspoon (5ml), pepper 1 teaspoon (5ml), 3 pieces of licorice, cinnamon 1 piece, tsaoko 1 piece, dried tangerine peel 1 piece, and soy sauce/kloc.
Making method of brine:
1, all spices are packed in gauze or disposable medicine bags or boxes.
2, put water in the pot, put all the ingredients, and boil.
3, turn to low heat and cook for about 40 minutes. It is better to put it for one night and the taste is more intense.
4, remove the spice residue and use it. Brine can be used repeatedly, and the older it is, the more fragrant it will be. According to the situation, the flavoring will be added continuously. When it is not used for a long time, it will be filtered and stored in the refrigerator or freezer.
Tips for making brine:
1, spices in brine can be increased or decreased according to your own preferences, but I think star anise (aniseed) and cinnamon are indispensable. If you like spicy taste, you can add dried pepper and pepper. For specific production methods, please refer to spicy duck neck.
2. Adding a small piece of fat pork to the brine is to make the brine more fragrant. If the brine is prepared for braised pork, then there is no need to put meat in advance. If you prepare braised peanuts and the like, there is no need to put meat, otherwise it will make peanut oil whimper. If it is braised eggs, adding a piece of meat can make the eggs more fragrant.
3. Brine can be used repeatedly, and the older it gets, the more fragrant it is. When it is not used for a long time, it can be filtered and stored in the refrigerator or freezer. It can be stored in the refrigerator for 7 days and frozen for 3 months.
The marinated eggs made with this brine are very fragrant and delicious. You can make more at one time and eat them slowly. The more marinated the eggs, the more delicious they are. Please see:
