The method of frying hemp leaves to be introduced today may be different from peacetime. Add some special ingredients to make the taste and taste more pleasing.
Before that, let me introduce what this dish is. After all, it is rarely heard in some areas in the south. I don't know what it looks like or what it tastes like.
-"Fried hemp leaves" is a traditional snack in Chongqing, Hubei, Anhui, Henan and other places, or a snack! Snacks are mainly made of flour, water, sesame seeds or eggs. They are crisp and fragrant.
Because it looks like hemp leaves after frying, it is called "fried hemp leaves". Of course, this is just a scientific name. The names of these snacks are different in local dialects, such as Paicha and Jiaoye.
The following analysis of specific practices, key points and skills to explain.
Innovative method of frying hemp leaves
Ingredients: 300g of flour.
Ingredients: 2 eggs,10g white sesame and10g black sesame.
Seasoning:10g lard and 4g salt.
-Operating procedures-
1. Pour the flour into a large bowl, first add the edible salt and mix well. Then add lard, beat eggs, and add raw white sesame seeds and black sesame seeds soaked in hot water-(why should sesame seeds be soaked in hot water and why should lard be added? Explain later).
2. Then use chopsticks to stir in one direction, stir the flour into a flocculent shape, and then knead it into dough. Note that the dough is hard, this effect is very important, and no water is needed.
3. After the dough is kneaded, seal it with plastic wrap or cover it with a big pot. After kneading the dough for half an hour, the dough will be softer and the subsequent steps will be easy to operate.
4. Sprinkle a thin layer of flour on the chopping board, put the baked dough on the table, flatten it with the palm of your hand, and then roll it evenly with a rolling pin. It is very difficult in this process, so you must press it with some force or with a noodle machine. In short, the thinner the better, the crisper the fried product.
5. After rolling thin, sprinkle a thin layer of flour, cut into strips about 5 cm wide, then fold each strip together and cut into diamond blocks about 4 cm, or cut into your favorite shape, which has little effect, but be careful not to cut it too big, otherwise it will not be easy to fry.
After cutting, shake the raw embryo of "hemp leaf" to prevent adhesion.
6. Bring the pot to a boil, add wide oil and try a little more. Then raise the oil temperature to 50% heat, turn to medium-low heat, and then add hemp leaves in turn for embryo formation. Pay attention to turning it frequently when frying, so that both sides of hemp leaves can be heated evenly, and there will be no phenomenon that one side is burnt and the other side is half cooked.
7. When the hemp leaves are fried until floating and slightly Huang Shi, you can remove the dry oil for later use. Then raise the oil temperature to 60% again, add hemp leaves and fry again. This process takes about 20~30 seconds, and the color turns light yellow. Turn off the fire and take it out at once.
Remember not to wait until the hemp leaves turn golden, or they will become old and ugly. The point is that they are burnt and not delicious. Because hemp leaves still have a high residual temperature when they are taken out, they continue to evaporate water and become mature, which is similar to the principle of fried peanuts. Therefore, we must seize the opportunity to take out the drained oil when it is light yellow and spread it on a plate.
A fried hemp leaf with golden color, crisp taste and salty fragrance is completed.
FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
1. Why should sesame be soaked in hot water?
(1), cleaning to sesame impurities.
When making this snack, most people ignore a step for convenience, that is, sesame seeds are directly added to flour. Then in the subsequent frying process, sesame seeds are easy to fall off because they are not deeply embedded, which affects the taste and appearance. In addition, oil is not easy to handle, and sesame seeds have to be fished out, so sesame seeds are soaked in hot water first, and then fished out and put into flour, which greatly improves the adsorption and has better effect.
2. What is the purpose of adding lard?
Adding lard can make flour cake more easily, and then it can block gluten, and fried hemp leaves are more brittle.
Secondly, lard has a special flavor, which can enrich the flavor of fried hemp leaves.
3. Why do you want to blow it up again?
The principle is the same as fried crispy meat. The first frying is shaping and soaking, and the oil inside will be squeezed out during the second frying, which is more crisp, non-greasy and looks better.
4. Why is there a lot of foam when cooking?
This phenomenon occurs when rapeseed is fried or when there are too many eggs. It is recommended to use soybean oil or blended oil to avoid this situation.
5. The green embryo of hemp leaves swelled during frying. What is the reason?
(1), First of all, the raw embryo of hemp leaves is rolled too thick and has a large internal structural space, which will swell when it is fried again. The solution is to roll it as thin as possible, or cut a knife in the middle of the raw embryo of hemp leaves, so that it will not bulge.
2. When the oil temperature is too high for the first time, it expands instantly.
Tips for frying marijuana leaves
1, stir-fry the flour with hemp leaves, and choose medium gluten, which is ordinary flour.
Sesame should be soaked in hot water for a while first, instead of directly adding it to flour without any operation. Secondly, sesame seeds don't need to be fried, otherwise they will be burnt easily in the subsequent frying.
3. The purpose of adding eggs to the dough is that the fried taste is not hard, the second is to bring a faint egg fragrance, and the third is that the finished product looks good. But it also has a disadvantage, that is, it should be eaten in one day, otherwise it will easily regain its moisture and become soft. Without eggs, hemp leaves fried with water and flour can be preserved for a long time, even for a week, it is crisp, but the disadvantage is that it is hard.
Both have their own advantages, and which one to choose should be based on the actual situation.
