As for the steps of soup noodles, I will share them with you in detail. Friends who are interested, please watch and learn patiently! The first step of the Zunyi mutton noodles recipe: select materials
How delicious a food is, In many cases, it is also affected by the ingredients, and delicacies such as mutton powder require good ingredients to enhance the deliciousness and taste.
To make Zunyi mutton powder, the main ingredients we use are mutton/mutton offal and mutton bones. The mutton is used as toppings and the mutton bones are used to make soup. The mutton must taste and the mutton bones must be delicious. In terms of material selection, , these two are also more particular.
First of all, let’s talk about making soup:
The main ingredient used to make soup is basically lamb bones. However, in order to make a pot of exquisite soup, in addition to lamb bones, many shops also Lamb's trotters and sheep intestines will be used. Lamb's trotters are rich in collagen, and sheep intestines are rich in suet, so adding these two types of ingredients will make the soup more delicious and thicker.
Secondly, let’s talk about mutton/haggis:
There are no special requirements for toppings such as mutton and haggis, but they must be fresh, and generally many businesses use them. The black goats that are naturally raised in Guizhou are mostly fed with grass and no edible feed, so the mutton meat is more delicious and firm.

The second step of Zunyi mutton powder recipe: processing ingredients
As we all know, mutton has its own mutton smell. Of course, the taste of fresh sheep is definitely lower, but in order to make the food more delicious, no matter Whether it is for making soup or making toppings, you need to carefully handle it when you buy it, such as sheep bones, sheep hooves, sheep intestines, mutton, haggis, etc. Before buying it, you must soak it in running water for 4-5 hours. After soaking, Also handle it carefully.
Key points for processing sheep bones, sheep hooves, and sheep intestines:
Buy the sheep bones and smash them in half, which is more conducive to cooking. During the cooking process, the bone marrow contains The essence is easier to boil out and fuse with the soup. Then the sheep's trotters are processed to clean up the impurities on the surface. We also need to open the sheep's hooves one by one, preferably to expose the tendons, which is more conducive to the development of collagen, and then the sheep intestines, and finally The important thing is to clean it up, and you can turn it over or cut it after cleaning.
Key points for processing mutton, haggis, etc.:
Fresh mutton basically has a relatively low odor, so in order to ensure the deliciousness of the mutton, there will basically not be too much The processing action is almost as long as soaking and cleaning. The various internal organs of the haggis need to be cleaned and processed carefully. First of all, after buying them, the unknown impurities on the haggis must be removed, and then they are washed repeatedly. The best purpose of cleaning all kinds of haggis is to Let the blood in the haggis completely separate, so that the bloody smell of the haggis can be removed more cleanly.

First prepare the ingredients for making soup: mutton, mutton bones, 250 grams of ginger, 20 grams of white wine, 20 grams of thyme, 20 grams of cumin, 20 grams of cumin, 20 grams of pepper, 10 grams of star anise, 10 grams of cinnamon, 10 grams of galangal, 15 grams of Amomum villosum, and 15 grams of white cardamom. After the ingredients are prepared, process them briefly, crush the ginger, wrap various spices in gauze, soak them in water for about 10 minutes, remove and control the water, and set aside. 2. After three steps of soaking, rinsing and processing, we put the clean mutton bones and mutton aside and drain the water for later use. The dosage here is in accordance with the standards for opening a store. The mutton bones are 7500 grams and the mutton is about 10 kilograms.
