"Baiyun Zhushou" is a famous historical dish in Guangdong. According to legend, in ancient times, there was a temple on Baiyun Mountain. One day, the elder who presided over the hospital went down the mountain to beg for alms. A young monk in the temple took the opportunity to get a pig's hand and wanted to taste it. Outside the mountain gate, he found a earthen jar and cooked it on the basement stove. The pig's hand was just cooked, but unfortunately the elder had returned from alms. The young monk was afraid of being seen by the elders and breaking the Buddhist precepts, so he hurriedly threw the pig's hand into the stream at the foot of the mountain. The next day, a woodcutter went up the mountain to collect firewood and passed by the mountain stream. When he found this pig's hand, he picked it up at home and seasoned it with sugar, salt and vinegar. Its skin was crisp and fleshy, and it was sweet and sour. Soon, the method of processing pig's hands spread in the local area. Because it originated at the foot of Baiyun Mountain, people later called it "Baiyun Pig Hand".
Now the "Baiyun Pig's Hand" in Guangzhou is well-made, and the original indigenous cooking has been changed into five processes, such as burning, scraping, chopping and boiling, soaking and pickling. It is said that the most exquisite "Baiyun Pig's Hand" is soaked in water from Jiulong Spring on Baiyun Mountain.
? The weather is getting hotter, the taste is weak, and the appetite is not good. It is best to eat something sweet and sour. The day before yesterday, on the first day of the Dragon Boat Festival holiday, I bought three pig hands and brewed "Baiyun pig hands" at home.
what is a pig's hand? According to Lao Guang, the front hoof is a pig's hand and the back hoof is a pig's foot. It is said that pig's trotters are rich in collagen protein, which can prevent skin dryness and wrinkling, enhance skin elasticity and toughness, and delay aging. It is an excellent "beauty food" for women. Whether the real situation is so remains to be studied. Anyway, it is also an excellent thing to have a bite of Baiyun pig's hand in the sultry weather around the Dragon Boat Festival.
get to the point. The step of buying pig hands and burning them has greatly reduced the difficulty. The boss who sells pork has burned all the pig hair with a spray gun. Just rinse it, boil it in water and scrape it.
Boil it a little, pour it out, scrape it clean, put it in the pot again, add water to boil it, boil it for a minute, and then pour it out. If it is three times, there is no blood foam in the pot. Then add cooking wine, ginger slices and salt and cook for 1 minutes to make the pig's hands smell a little bit. After the pig's hands were cooked, I soaked them in water for ten minutes. The purpose of this was to make the pig's hands white and sell well. Baiyun pig's hands in the restaurant are all snow-white, and it is estimated that chemicals are used. Anyway, I have never been able to make the effect of the restaurant after cooking for more than 2 years.
here, this is the effect after the final rinse.
I forgot to explain clearly that the vinegar soaked in pig's feet should be kept in the refrigerator to keep it cold. I use apple vinegar and white vinegar, which I personally think tastes better. It doesn't matter if it's just a kind of vinegar. The vinegar that has been chilled in advance will make the pig's hand shrink its pores when it is cold, and it will be more refreshing to eat.
I used three bottles of vinegar and 5 ml of cold boiled water to make soaked vinegar. Add more than 1 grams of rock sugar. Apple vinegar is sweet, so I'll cut down on sugar. This depends on personal taste.
side dishes: ginger in season, crisp and tender, an excellent partner for pig hands. Marinate the slices with salt for a while, drain them, and soak them in vinegar later.
put pig's hand and ginger together in vinegar. For better taste, add a little green and red pepper.
exclusive secret recipe: in order to make the taste fresh and natural, I also add lemon juice. There is also a warm reminder: don't soak the lemon slices. I have tried it before and found that it will have a little bitter taste of lemon peel after soaking for a long time.
soak in the refrigerator for 24 hours. Do not eat it secretly during these 24 hours! Otherwise, it's irresponsible of me not to taste enough. After a long wait, we can finally eat! Bite a pig's hand, it's refreshing, and it's sour and sweet with a bit of spicy taste, which makes people feel refreshed. Taste the ginger, it is crisp and full of saliva. At present, the complicated working procedure and long waiting for food have all become so insignificant!
I don't care much about the effect of beauty beauty's trotters. I just like the taste, the taste, and I just like it. The feeling of eating is like a cool breeze blowing in hot weather. Also, in fact, more often than not, I only eat ginger and don't eat meat, because the growing fat pile around my waist reminds me all the time: shut up and take your legs!
A friend who has owned a restaurant can give me some advice!
