Flowers can really answer this question. One reason is that my family is often a gathering place for friends. At this kind of family gathering with many people, I can patiently make a list at first, then do shopping, and start preparing all kinds of semi-finished products one day in advance. Waiting for more times, a person preparing a table of dishes, not only is not enough, but also slowly loses patience.
what should I do? Prepare some appetizing and refreshing side dishes, or some attractive and delicious snacks, which can not only be prepared in advance, but also be preserved for a long time after sealed preservation. These delicacies are easy to carry except for family gatherings, short trips with family and friends, and outings. Moreover, flowers have been made many times, and they are quite popular with friends.
I'll share it with you here:
1. Chicken feet with pickled peppers in lime
When it comes to appetizers, chicken feet with pickled peppers are the first thing to do.
some friends will say that you can buy several bags of chicken feet with pickled peppers of a certain brand, and you can eat them when your friends come. But in fact, flowers want to say that what they make is delicious. Because I have bought chicken feet with pickled peppers from a well-known brand several times, and there is only the raw and spicy taste of pickled peppers, and some of them are gelatinous. In short, the taste is really average. But if you make it yourself, you can make the chicken feet taste smooth with Q-bomb, and you can also taste the faint scent, so that the chicken feet will become more and more addictive.
Need to prepare:
14 chicken feet
3 chilies; Pickled peppers (including pickled pepper water) 15g
Spices: star anise, ginger slices, pepper, fragrant leaves
white vinegar, cooking wine, salt
lime; Appropriate amount of ice cubes
Practice:
1. The flowers are prepared with 14 chicken feet, which is about 4-5 people for a picnic. Cut off your nails first.
2. Cut into small pieces.
3. After the water is boiled, add these spices: 6-7 pieces of ginger, a handful of pepper, 4 pieces of fragrant leaves and 2 star anise.
4. Pour 1 tablespoon of cooking wine and a little white vinegar before adding chicken feet. Cooking wine is to remove fishy smell and refresh, and the function of a little white vinegar is beneficial to whitening chicken feet after cooking, otherwise the cooked chicken feet are generally gray.
5. how long is the appropriate cooking time? Boil the water for 7-8 minutes. At this cooking time, the taste of chicken feet is the most crisp.
6. After that, the key step is reached. How to ensure that the chicken feet are crispy and white? Let's make it ourselves. Of course, we won't put additives. The chicken feet that have just been fished out are immediately put into cold water for 2-3 times. This step can not only quickly cool the chicken feet, but also remove the grease and floating foam.
7. Then put the chicken feet into the ice, put a layer of chicken feet and spread a layer of ice. This step can make the chicken feet more elastic and taste better. Its function is completely different from just using water for several times. You will know it after trying it.
8. We prepared 15g pickled peppers (including pickled pepper water) by using ice cubes. I tried two kinds of lemons, namely yellow lemon and lime, and felt that the taste of lime was not too sour but more fragrant. Slice and remove seeds for later use, and cut 2-3 millet peppers into oblique sections for later use.
