in the process of making pigskin jelly, the ratio of water to pigskin is mastered according to experience. Generally, the operation is as follows:
First, the pigskin is processed. Wash the pigskin, remove the pighair (it takes a lot of brains to deal with pighair, which can be scraped with a razor or burned with fire), then scrape it clean with a kitchen knife after soaking, and it is best to scrape off the fat inside the pigskin.
step two, boiling. Wrap the prepared spices, onion ginger and other condiments in gauze and put them into the pot. At the same time, add cooking wine, salt and other condiments (according to your own taste), code the pigskin and add water into the pot. When adding water, add water according to the amount of pigskin, and add water at one time to start boiling.
third step, reprocessing. The heat is very important in the process of boiling pigskin. When the fire is big, it is easy to dry the pot, and the fire should be smaller. There is still a lot of water in the pot until the pigskin is cooked. Re-processing is divided into the following processes: 1. Take out the material package after cooking, and take out the pigskin and put it in a large basin for cooling. 2. Remove the fat and fatter parts from the cooled pigskin for later use. 3. Slowly take out the cooled white lard in the pot. 4. Look at the hardness of pigskin juice in the pot. If it is soft, there is more water, and vice versa. 5. Add the pigskin to be processed and then boil it (the details are figured out by yourself). When it is cooked, cooled and the lard is scraped off, it is finished.
In fact, the cost of pigskin jelly is not high, but it is troublesome to make. Some people like to put some peanuts, pig's head meat, hooves and so on in it, and mix it with vinegar or dip it in other condiments according to their own tastes, which is delicious.
