The mysterious smell of mutton mainly comes from volatile fatty acids in fats such as sheep sebaceous glands, sheep tail fat, and subcutaneous fat. If we remove the fatty fascia between the muscles when initially processing the mutton, this can alleviate the odor to a certain extent.

Hello, I am Lanchan Shiji, a winner of the Qingyun Plan in the field of food. I am here to answer your questions.

Personally, I still like mutton with a bit of mutton flavor. In many areas in the north, there is also a saying that eating mutton means eating mutton. The mutton is fresh, so why eat mutton without the smell of mutton?

(My personal favorite is the Tarim kid, and of course the price is very beautiful)

The size of the mutton smell of sheep is mainly determined by three factors related. The breed of sheep, how they are raised, and how they are handled. For example, there are some high-quality sheep breeds in Inner Mongolia, Xinjiang, and Ningxia: Tarim goats, Bashbai sheep, Ujimqin sheep, Tan sheep, etc. The mutton smell of these sheep breeds is very light or even non-smell.

Therefore, the best way to cook these high-quality sheep is to boil them directly in water and sprinkle them with salt when eating. No need for any extra seasoning at all. The mutton is tender and crispy, with absolutely no smell.

(Black goats can be seen everywhere across the country)

But leaving these places, except for some small local excellent breeds, such as Jianyang big-eared sheep . Most of them are goats and Hu sheep with a smell of mutton. These muttons have a relatively strong smell due to the way they are fed and their own reasons. Wanting to remove it is related to the next two points.

(The mutton smell of grain-fed sheep is very light, the oil is evenly distributed, and it is delicious and tender)

If you want to remove the mutton smell as much as possible, you must Eliminate forage completely and feed only grain feed two months before sale. This is called grain-fed livestock abroad. The rich starch in grains can decompose the mutton smell in sheep. But why isn’t this done in our country? Quite simply, the reason is cost.

First of all, most of the various miscellaneous grains in our country need to be imported, among which soybeans, which are used as livestock rations, are the most imported. The cost of fodder is already very high, and now we have to feed grain directly, causing the cost to increase dramatically.

(Sheep are mammals, they cannot grow without limit)

Secondly, during the two or three months when livestock eat grain feed, their weight will change. It doesn't look very obvious. In other words, the cost of food you spent for two or three months is not much more than the money you make by selling it directly. At the same time, I have to bear the risk of breeding for these two months. So since the supply of mutton on the market exceeds demand, why do I need to raise it for two more months? This results in the mutton having a relatively strong mutton smell.

There are also some reasons that are not the main ones. For example, the smell of old sheep is much heavier than that of lambs; the smell of rams is much heavier than that of ewes. Big rams have a much stronger odor than castrated sheep. These are natural laws and there is no way to avoid them. So the best thing is of course lamb. Finally, let’s talk about how to remove the mutton smell.

First of all, if the mutton you buy has a smell of mutton. Don't put it in the pot and cook it immediately when you come back. First let it soak in clean water for three or four hours to completely pull out the blood. If you don't mind the stewed appearance being bad, you can cut it into small pieces and soak it in the blood water most thoroughly.

The mutton smell mainly comes from two aspects: body fluids and fat. The blood is his humor, and the fat is his fat. So if you are afraid of the smell, you not only need to soak the blood of the mutton, but also completely cut off the fat. But I personally don’t recommend doing this. The fat sheep is the essence of mutton. You have already cut it off, and you are still eating it.

Of course, if you are still worried, you can blanch the mutton in cold water and add peppercorns, ginger slices and white wine. The heat of the steam removes part of the odor. It's just that this will lose the flavor of the mutton. This is all based on personal preference.

Secondly, we can use spices to resolve the mutton smell. There is a house here that is specially used to treat the smell of mutton. The master calls it three white, one red and one green medicine to remove the mutton. The so-called three whites refer to white cardamom, angelica angelica, and sand ginger, one red refers to Dahongpao Zanthoxylum bungeanum, and one green can use bay leaves or fennel. The dosage for each kilogram of mutton is: 5 grams of white cardamom, 5 grams of angelica, 8 grams of sand ginger, 10 grams of Dahongpao, 10 grams of fennel (8 grams of bay leaves), and do not add any other spices. If you are interested, you can try it and see how it works.

Finally, we can also use heavy seasonings to suppress the mutton smell. There are no tricks to this approach. It's nothing more than making the mutton heavy with spicy and spicy, or using curry, satay and other methods. Curry and satay are both compound spice condiments, which naturally contain aromatic spices. However, the deliciousness of the mutton itself was also obscured. So unless the quality of the mutton is too poor, this method is not recommended.

When stewing mutton, adding this "1 flavor" ingredient can remove the fishy smell! Many people don't know. It is "radish". You can poke holes into white radish and put them into soup with mutton. Radish can not only remove the mutton smell, but also can be used as a raw material to go with mutton and meat, which is delicious, nutritious and healthy. Eating mutton in winter is sweet but not greasy, warm in nature but not dry. It can warm the heart and dispel cold, warm and replenish qi and blood, appetizer and strengthen the spleen. This Chongqing home-style mutton and radish roast, eating more of it can not only resist the cold, but also nourish the body. It can be said to kill two birds with one stone! What are you waiting for? Start learning now.

Three tips for cooking mutton: save time, effort, and avoid getting mutton

1) No need to blanch the mutton. Wash the mutton and put it into the pot with cold water. After boiling, the blood and dirt that cannot be washed away will be removed. The stuff turns into foam and is skimmed off. It has the same properties as blanching, but the nutrients are not lost.

2) To eliminate the smell of mutton, add white radish and mutton and cook together. There will be no smell of mutton at all, and one thing will reduce the other.

3) To save time, it is highly recommended to use an electromagnetic purple clay pot to cook mutton. The mutton or beef cooked by this baby will have a thick soup.

The meat is so tender that it cannot be compared to ordinary pots.

There are two ways to remove the mutton smell. One is the blanching method and the other is the spice removal method.

1. Blanching method. Soak the mutton in water for more than an hour until the water becomes clear, then put it into a pot and add water to cover the mutton. Bring to a boil over high heat and blanch the water for about ten minutes. The time can be increased or decreased depending on the size of the meat. When the foam stops increasing, take it out and put it into clean water again to clean. This is how to remove the smell by blanch water.

2. Spice removal method. The main purpose of spices is to suppress the mutton smell rather than remove it. Commonly used spices to remove the mutton smell include Sannai, Alpinia galangal, Angelica dahurica, Cao Kou, Koxiang, Hongkou, Baikou, etc.

3. Add flavor to mutton.

After removing the mutton smell, the ultimate goal is the fragrance of the mutton. We often use star anise, cinnamon bark, tangerine peel, fennel, bay leaves, Amomum villosum, thyme, grass fruit, fragrant fruit, cinnamon, cloves, etc. to enhance the aroma.

In order to achieve an endless aftertaste after eating, you should also choose spices that retain fragrance.

It is not difficult to remove the mutton smell.

The first step after buying fresh mutton is to remove the grease and soak it in clean water.

The water must be changed several times during this period to soak away as much blood as possible. Because most of the mutton smell comes from blood. Soak until the mutton is white (relative to the color when not soaked).

Add water to the soaked mutton to further remove blood stains.

After this treatment, the mutton meat has a rich aroma and the fishy smell is very small. Whether it is stewed, boiled, braised in braised sauce, or pot roasted, it is acceptable to the general population. On the contrary, for people like me who particularly prefer mutton's mutton smell, I need to add some mutton fat to increase the mutton flavor after cooking.

If you are particularly disgusted with the smell of mutton, you can do further processing.

When stewing, boiling, or making soup

Add white radish as an auxiliary ingredient. Mutton + radish is the perfect combination to remove the smell.

When braised in braise or making pot

When adding onions, ginger, and cooking wine, be sure to add a spice: cumin. It can remove the smell of mutton and make the finished dish rich in aroma.

If I have curry powder at home, I can add an appropriate amount to make a mutton curry without the smell.

If you add a little hawthorn or orange peel when firing, it will also have a strong effect of removing the smell.
