Bacon is salted and dried by air-blowing. Some friends say that fried bacon is too hard, especially the skin can't chew. This is because you didn't use water before frying bacon. Although bacon is delicious, it often contains more nitrite, so pay attention to the correct cooking methods before eating. Boiling can make some nitrite lose with water. When cooking preserved foods such as bacon, sausage and salted fish, it is best to cook these ingredients with boiling water, and try to avoid frying, frying and baking.
Correct treatment of bacon before eating:
1, alkaline surface cleaning method
The cleaning of bacon is troublesome, so it must be carefully cleaned. First, wet the bacon with hot water, then apply an appropriate amount of edible alkaline noodles and scrub it carefully.
2, soaking method and boiling method
Wash the bacon and soak it in warm water until soft, or put it in boiling water for more than 5 minutes, then take out the slices and fry it into dishes.
Although the above two methods are also commonly used, they are not the best way to treat bacon, because soaking in water or boiling water will lead to the serious loss of flavor and nutrition of bacon, and the final fried bacon tastes not so good.
3. Soak the cleaned bacon in a large basin of water for half a day, which effectively removes the salty taste.
4. Cook the bacon, and put more water when cooking, so as to further remove the salty taste, and cook it for a little longer. The bacon is not suitable for direct frying, and it should be cooked before frying.
5. If the fat meat and the lean meat are together, generally speaking, they should be cut separately, and they can be fried together without being cut separately. That is, if the fat meat is to be dried, the lean meat will be particularly dry.
6. If the fat and lean meat are cut separately, first stir-fry the fat meat to get extra oil, then add the material to be fried, add the salt and stir-fry, and then add the bacon and lean meat.
Steaming method
Numerous practices have proved that steaming is the best method to treat bacon, and the flavor and nutrition of bacon will not be lost too much, and the fried dishes are fragrant and palatable.
Wash the bacon and put it in a steaming bowl, pour in a proper amount of yellow wine, clear water, onion and ginger slices, steam it in a steamer for 40 minutes to 1 hour, and then take out the slices and fry them into dishes. If your bacon is salty, you can soak it in warm water for a while to reduce the salty taste and then steam it thoroughly in the pot.
7. Bacon is generally fried with garlic shoots, garlic sprouts and onions, which makes it delicious.
