1, add hawthorn
Add some hawthorn when stewing pig's trotters, and add 50 grams of hawthorn according to 1000 grams of pig's trotters, which can make pig's trotters rotten and delicious. Because hawthorn contains a certain amount of lipase and maslinic acid. Lipase in hawthorn can promote lipolysis; Maslinic acid, etc. can improve the activity of proteolytic enzymes, and because the main components of meat are protein and fat, it helps to make the stew worse and easier to cook. Note that when adding hawthorn to stewed pig's trotters, rinse the dried hawthorn and soak it in cold water first.
2. Add vinegar
When stewing pig's trotters, adding proper amount of vinegar can not only make the colloid in bones decompose more calcium and phosphorus, improve its nutritional value, but also facilitate the human body to absorb the decomposed protein. Vinegar makes it easier for calcium ions in bones to be integrated into soup, which is more conducive to the absorption of calcium ions. Moreover, vinegar accelerates the decomposition of fat in pig's trotters and ensures the transformation of saturated fatty acids into unsaturated fatty acids, which is not only beneficial to human health, but also makes pig's trotters fresh and tender. Vinegar can remove the fishy smell of pig's trotters; Vinegar can make trotters stew quickly.
Note that when stewing pig's trotters, vinegar should be put at the beginning of stewing. If it is put late, the vinegar will not volatilize completely, and the meat may be sour and unpalatable, which will affect the taste.
3. Add papaya
Pig's trotters and pawpaw are easy to be crisp and rotten when cooked together. Because pawpaw contains substances that can decompose protein in pig's feet, the pig's feet are easy to rot, and the soup has a special flavor, so the nutrients in the pig's feet are easy to absorb.
4. Temperature
When stewing, you must turn on the minimum fire, stew in a cast iron pot for two hours, and stew in an ordinary pot for about three hours. A small fire is the key to ensure the softness of pig's trotters, and a big fire will stew pig's trotters.
5. Stew in warm water
In order to ensure that the pig's feet are soft and rotten, the water should not be cold again after blanching, and it is easy to rot when boiled with enough warm water.
6. Use a pressure cooker
It is recommended to stew in a pressure cooker. Stewing trotters in a pressure cooker is convenient and fast, and you can enjoy delicious food without spending too much time and energy. Nutrition will not be lost, which is very beneficial for the body to absorb. Pressure cooker, also known as pressure cooker, can heat the cooked food to above 100℃, which is cooked quickly and rotten thoroughly. Ordinary pot, the highest boiling point is100, which can only be stewed for a long time.
