Wash the jar first and pour in cold water. Pour half a water into the jar, probably to the belly of the jar, not too much, because there will still be water in the vegetables soaked in the future. To make kimchi, it should be clean from beginning to end without any oil. Our hands, all the vegetables used, all the ingredients, condiments and jars must not be stained with any oil, otherwise the pickles will grow bacteria and the salt water in the jar will go bad. We should use a separate bag of salt instead of taking it out of the original seasoning box, because those salts may touch the oil spoon, so we must wash our hands and get a new pair of chopsticks separately. Cover the jar and keep it in the shade. Start preparing raw materials for raising jars.
1. Raw materials for making cans:
Red pepper, garlic, ginger (all main ingredients should be as fresh as possible)
Braised pork seasoning can be used as a seasoning for raising jars.
2. Lifting jars and condiments:
Dried capsicum, star anise, pepper, cinnamon, fragrant leaves, Amomum tsaoko, hawthorn, kaempferia kaempferia, Amomum villosum and Amomum villosum.
Salt and wine
The most important things are dried peppers, star anise, pepper and kaempferia. Later, it was found that most of the gravy in the supermarket contained these. I suggest that it is easier to buy bagged marinade.
1) Wash the mud with ginger.
2) Soak vegetables in water (remove pesticides) and wash all the main ingredients and condiments.
The root of pepper can't be cut off, otherwise the pepper is easy to soften and rot, and the seeds inside are easy to come out, so its spicy taste and fragrance can't slowly penetrate into the brine.
3) Then put it in a ventilated place to dry the steam.
All vegetables and condiments used in kimchi should be dried in a ventilated place to remove water vapor.
One is to prevent unclean things in the water from entering the jar;
Second, such dishes will be crisp when soaked.
4) In order to make the spicy taste of pepper quickly enter the altar salt water, use toothpicks to prick many small eyes on the pepper. In this way, peppers with small eyes will not rot in the jar, but will be delicious. Friends who like spicy food, this sour and crisp little red pepper is the material for raising jars, but it is also a rare delicacy.
Although the materials for raising jars are mainly used for raising jars, they will actually be delicious in the future. For example, ginger here is the main seasoning for fried chicken offal, and small peppers are also delicious. Just add more after each fish comes out.
5) Put the salt into the cold boiled water in the jar and gently stir it to make it even. Salt is according to your own taste, but the water in the jar should be salty. Should not be too much, you can continue to add salt in the future.
6) Put the main ingredients and auxiliary materials of the jar into the jar.
7) Pour in white wine
Liquor is the key here, and its function is
-disinfection and sterilization, so that the brine in the altar will not grow flowers and mildew.
-Taste, the slight wine smell in kimchi is very fragrant.
8) Cover the jar, pour water into the jar edge, seal it and put it in a cool place.
9) Wait quietly. . .
In order to fully melt the salt water, we should carefully open the jar cover every day, gently stir the salt water with clean chopsticks, and open the jar cover by rotating it so that the water along the jar will not enter the jar. The water near the altar is easy to get dirty, so it should be cleaned frequently. If it enters the altar, the salt water in the altar will grow flowers.
