Crispy cucumbers, sweet and sour, try it and see if it suits your taste, especially in such a hot and humid rainy season. The climate has really changed in recent years. Being in the north, there will also be sticky hot and humid weather for a few days in early summer. In such weather, I feel uncomfortable at home and uncomfortable when going out. I don’t want to eat and have no appetite. What should I do?

Let’s try what I made. See if this crispy cucumber awakens your palate.

Recently, a large number of cucumbers are on the market. Their roots are green and straight. It is a good time to make crispy cucumbers. Buy 10 cucumbers and two lettuces at a time. Before pickling, you need to remove the water from the cucumbers and lettuce. There are two methods, one is to dry them, and the other is to use salt water. I prefer to use salt and sand water directly to save trouble and time. Cut the cucumber into quarters from the middle, cut off the flesh and set aside

Cut the lettuce into strips about the same thickness as the cucumber

Find a larger basin and pour the cucumber and lettuce into it

Sprinkle in salt. The amount of salt increases or decreases according to the amount of vegetables. Just the right amount is enough. Then mix evenly. It will take an hour for the sand and water to mix.

During this period, start preparing the marinade, three ounces of rock sugar, a handful of spicy millet, a pinch of Sichuan peppercorns, three or four star anise, four or five slices of ginger, half a bowl of balsamic vinegar, and the amount of light soy sauce is half of the balsamic vinegar.

Add water to the pot. After the water boils, pour all the marinades into it.

After boiling, cook for another five minutes.

Next, wait for the marinade to be completely cooked. Get cooler.

After an hour, the vegetables will have been completely sanded and watered. Pick them up and bend them completely before marinating. Pour out the sanded water first, and then discard the green water. It is not suitable for consumption. Too salty.

Pour the cooled pickled juice into the well-watered cucumbers, cover with plastic wrap and put it in the refrigerator.

It can be eaten the next morning, so that the pickled ones are crispy. There is no problem in keeping cucumbers for two weeks, and you can continue to lick the vegetables into them after eating, so there is no waste at all.

When you have no appetite and don’t want to eat, take some out and serve it with porridge. I don’t believe you have no appetite yet.

I hope my sweet and sour crispy cucumber can bring you a refreshing feeling during the rainy season.

"Food with a story" is presented with all your heart.

Hello, I am happy to answer this question.

We are currently experiencing the sticky rainy season. To talk about the most appetizing snacks, let me share a dish that I often make in the past few days. Sweet and sour lotus root slices. It is sour and sweet and very appetizing. .

Lotus root itself is a good nutritional supplement. And this season is when lotus roots begin to be on the market. The lotus root I bought was said by the vegetable stall owner to be local lotus root. Each section is very short, but it is chubby and very cute.

Usually I only need one lotus root, just a small pot. Wash the lotus root, cut off the two ends of the lotus root, then peel off the lotus root skin, and then cut it into thin slices. The sliced ??lotus root slices are like flowers, very beautiful.

Sweet and sour lotus root slices are easy to make. Add a little oil to the pot, stir-fry the lotus root slices, add water, add light soy sauce, rock sugar, and vinegar. After simmering for a while, it is ready to serve. I personally think that the soup should be a little more, because the crispy lotus root slices cannot absorb the flavor for a while. If there is more soup, soak it for a while, and the flavor will be absorbed, sour, sweet and sour. The crunchy ones are very appetizing in this season!

Of course, fresh lotus root is delicious when eaten raw. It has a slightly sweet texture and is crispy and crunchy. However, I always feel that raw lotus root has a slight astringent taste, and it is still sweet and sour lotus root. More suitable for me.

The above is my personal opinion, I hope you all like it!

Thank you! Summer seems to have come suddenly. I didn't feel comfortable wearing long pants two days ago, but today I still feel hot when I wear shorts.
