Food preparation
Ingredients: trotters 1 ginger 1 large scallion 1 root garlic 3 petals.
Seasoning: star anise (aniseed), 4 prickly ash, 40 dried tangerines 1 block (about 2 pieces 1 yuan coin size) and 2 tsaoko.
Cinnamon 1 root (about the size of middle finger), fragrant leaves, 2 pieces of dried red pepper, 3 pieces of cooking wine, 2 tablespoons (30ml) of soy sauce, 3 tablespoons (45ml) of soy sauce, sugar, kloc-0/teaspoon (5g) of rock sugar, kloc-0/teaspoon (about 30g) of salt.
Production step
1, wash the trotters. Pour water into the pot, boil over high fire, blanch pig's trotters for 5 minutes, remove, rinse and drain for later use. (If there is hair on the pig's trotters, you can burn the pig's hair on the surface of the pig's trotters at this time. But usually we buy pig's trotters in the supermarket, and the hair has been removed very cleanly)
2. Peel the ginger and cut it into pieces. Cut the green onion into 5cm long sections. Peel the garlic and pat it with a knife, but don't break it.
3. Pour oil into a non-stick pan. When the oil is heated to 50% heat by high fire, pour onion, ginger, garlic, star anise, pepper, dried tangerine peel, Amomum tsaoko, cinnamon, fragrant leaves and dried Chili, stir-fry until fragrant, then add pig's trotters, and then cook cooking wine.
4. Pour in soy sauce and soy sauce, and turn the trotters with a shovel to make the color of soy sauce evenly cover the pigs.
Hands. Pour boiling water, add white sugar, cover and simmer 1 hour and a half.
5, then open the lid, add rock sugar and salt, stir well, then change to high fire and cook for 10 minutes. When the rock sugar is completely melted, the soup can be slowly dried.
matters need attention
1, before making, be sure to blanch the trotters, blanch the trotters' water, and don't use it again.
2. There are more spices and ingredients for sauce trotters, especially cinnamon, pepper, ginger and green onions, which are more than other meats we usually cook. In addition, don't forget to put garlic.
3. In step (3), cooking wine is cooked immediately after the trotters are put in, which can more effectively remove the odor of the trotters. In step (4), white sugar is added to add flavor to the trotters during the stewing process. Adding crystal sugar in step (5) can make the finished pig's trotters more beautiful in color.
4. The trotters need to be stewed for a long time. After the pigskin becomes soft and sticky, it is easy to stick to the bottom of the pot. If it is made in a non-stick pot, it will keep the skin of the trotters intact better than that made in an iron pot.
