The method of frying hemp leaves to be introduced today may be different from the usual practice. Some special ingredients are added to make the taste and taste more attractive.

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 and what it tastes like.

-"fried sesame 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 crispy and fragrant.

After frying, it looks like hemp leaves, so it is named "fried hemp leaves". Of course, this is just a scientific name, and the names of this snack are different in local dialects, such as Paicha, burnt leaves and so on.

the following is an analysis of the specific methods, and the key points and skills are explained. Innovative method of frying hemp leaves

Ingredients: 3g of flour.

ingredients: 2 eggs, 1g white sesame and 1g black sesame.

seasoning: 1g of lard and 4g of salt.

-operation process-

1. Pour the flour into a large basin, 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 do sesame seeds soak in hot water and why do you add lard? Explain later).

2. Then use chopsticks to stir in one direction, stir the flour into a flocculent shape, and then knead it into dough. Pay attention to the fact that the dough is hard, and this is the effect that is important, without adding water.

3. After the dough is kneaded, seal it with plastic wrap, or cover it with a big basin and cover it 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 thin and evenly with a rolling pin. The process is laborious, so you must use some force or use a noodle machine to press it. In short, the thinner the better, the crisper the fried product.

5. After rolling thin, sprinkle a thin layer of flour again, cut it into long strips about 5 cm wide, then stack each strip together and cut it into diamond blocks about 4 cm, or cut it 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 "Ma Ye" to prevent adhesion.

6. Heat the pan, and add as much wide oil as possible. Then raise the oil temperature to 5% heat, turn to medium and small, and then add hemp leaves in turn for green embryo. Note that when frying, it is necessary to turn it frequently, 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 still half cooked.

7. When the hemp leaves are fried to float and turn yellow slightly, you can take out the oil for later use. Then raise the oil temperature to 6% heat again, add hemp leaves and fry it again. The process takes about 2~3 seconds, and the color turns light yellow. Turn off the fire and take it out immediately.

remember not to wait until the hemp leaves turn golden, otherwise they will get old and ugly. The key is that they taste burnt and are not delicious. Because the hemp leaves still have a high residual temperature when they are fished out, they continue to evaporate water and become mature, which is similar to the principle of fried peanuts. Therefore, we must seize the opportunity, remove the drained oil when it is light yellow, and spread it on a plate.

a fried sesame leaf with golden color, crisp taste and salty taste is finished. Frequently asked questions

1. Why does sesame soak in hot water?

① clean sesame seeds to remove impurities.

② When making this snack, most people ignore one step for convenience, that is, adding sesame seeds directly into 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 dough more easily, and secondly, it can block gluten, and fried hemp leaves are more crisp.

Secondly, lard has a special flavor, which can enrich the flavor of fried hemp leaves.

3. Why do you want to bomb again?

The principle is the same as that of frying crispy meat. The first frying is shaped and soaked, and the oil inside is forced out during the second frying, which makes it more crispy, not greasy and looks better.

4. Why is there a lot of foam when frying?

this phenomenon will happen when you fry rapeseed, or it will happen when you lay too many eggs. It is recommended to use soybean oil or blended oil to avoid this situation.

5. The raw embryo of hemp leaves bulged during frying. What is the reason?

① firstly, the raw embryo of hemp leaves is rolled too thick, and the internal structure space is large, so when it is fried again, it will bulge when heated. The solution is to roll as thin as possible, or cut a knife in the middle of the raw embryo of hemp leaves, so it won't bulge.

② When frying for the first time, the oil temperature was too high, and it expanded instantly. Tips for frying hemp leaves

1. Choose medium gluten flour for frying hemp leaves, that is, ordinary flour.

2. Soak sesame seeds in hot water for a while first, instead of adding them directly to flour without any operation. Secondly, sesame seeds do not need to be fried, otherwise they will be easily burnt in the subsequent frying.

3. The purpose of adding eggs to the dough is: firstly, the fried taste is not hard; secondly, it brings a faint egg fragrance; thirdly, the color of the finished product is beautiful. But it also has disadvantages, that is, it should be eaten in one day, otherwise it will be easy to regain its moisture and become soft. Without eggs, fried hemp leaves with water and flour can be kept for a long time, even if it is a week, it is crisp, but the disadvantage is that it is hard.

both have their own advantages and disadvantages, so choose which one to choose according to the actual situation.

4. There are two flavors of fried hemp leaves. This article introduces the salty version, and the other is the sweet and crisp version, which uses white sugar instead of salt. As for how much to add, it is based on personal taste. Conclusion

If fried hemp leaves are delicious, it depends on the handling of details. As long as the steps are followed, the taste and taste of the finished products will be not bad.
