How to cook braised dishes? Detective Gourmet Guo will answer. Braised dishes are called boiled dishes in our Hebei dialect, also called cauldron dishes.

It is still very simple for people in Hebei to cook cauldron dishes, such as cabbage and wax gourd, but some cooking skills are needed to cook well. Starting from the choice of ingredients

Chinese cabbage stew, generally choose fresh cabbage with big leaves, and Hebei people's home-cooked stew. The main ingredients are tofu, vermicelli, pork belly, kelp and meatballs.

the ingredients are simple, 2 star anise, a few pepper, onion, ginger, garlic, 2 dried peppers, or a small spoon of Pixian bean paste. More attention should be paid to cooking details

First of all, if the braised dishes are delicious, you need to add more oil, which is usually a little vegetable oil, and then consume some lard from the fat of pork. When consuming lard, don't simmer too much, consume it gently and slowly. When the fat turns brown and dry, stir-fry onion, ginger, garlic, pepper and star anise in the oil pan.

after the fragrance comes out, put Pixian watercress or pepper in the oil pan and stir-fry for several times, then pour the pork belly into the pan and continue to stir-fry.

after the pork belly is fried to 6% maturity, put the cabbage, soaked vermicelli and washed kelp into the pot.

Then add some very fresh flavor, or a little soy sauce, and the salt will start to stew. At this time, don't add too much water, just put some water in. Cover the pot and stir fry for 3-5 minutes.

At this time, according to the size of the soup, the water should be properly stored, and generally the water is one third of the vegetable. At this time, the basic serving is softer and easier to roll. After mixing well, try whether the taste is appropriate. If it is weak, add some edible salt. If it is not very fresh, add a little delicious or chicken essence.

especially, don't put too much salt at the beginning, and try to taste salty or light after adding water.

At this time, the heat is also very important. Turn it to medium heat to continue stewing. Don't cover the pot on medium heat. If it is low heat and there is a lot of soup, you can cover it.

wait for 3-5 minutes, put the tofu in, and then continue to stew. Remember to stir it every 3 minutes to prevent the pot from pasting. When the vermicelli is soft and the tofu is delicious, even if it is cooked, you can order a few drops of sesame oil and put a little white vinegar at this time, which will make the taste more delicious.
