How long to soak the fish glue
How long to soak depends on the thickness of the fish glue, thicker soaking time is longer, thinner soaking time is shorter, in general, soaking time is 5 to 10 hours, the following is a detailed description of the soaking method of several kinds of fish glue.
Flower gum oil hair
1, if the flower gum is dirty, it is recommended to soak, wash and dry before use (because the oil hair after the flower gum is honeycomb, it is difficult to clean the impurities inside). Flowering gum does not have to be in the sun to dry, there is a north wind if you clip the gum and blow a night on it.
2, for the oil hair of the flower glue and the pot do not have moisture, otherwise it will cause the oil in the pot splash.
3, the fire should not be too strong, control in about medium-low heat. Have a pair of chopsticks ready.
4. Put in the mollusks, one by one is recommended. When you put them into the frying pan, they will immediately shrink into a ball, and then they will rapidly increase in size in a short time. The color of the flower bulbs will be different from the previous ones. At this time, with the help of chopsticks, press on some unenlarged parts of the mackerel (such as the middle part), so that it can be fully immersed in the hot oil, and the unenlarged parts will gradually make the mackerel grow up under the action of the hot oil.
5, after the good hair of the flower gum fishing, try to rinse off the surface of the oil, and then soaked in water. After a few hours, the flower gums will fully absorb the water and stretch out.
6, according to the need, cut the flower glue into cubes or strips, spare. Put it in the refrigerator to freeze sharply if you can't finish it.
7, the texture of the oil and evaporation of the gelatin is different from that of the water, crispy, and with a little bit of "fish flavor", a little bit similar to that of pork rinds.
8, the biggest advantage of the oil hair is that it allows ordinary gum to play the effect of the ordinary! For example, after the oil is generally more "crisp", so that the original elasticity of the rubber becomes elastic, and originally some fishy rubber after the oil will be significantly reduced after the fishy flavor.
Vaporized mollusks
1, mollusks first soaked in water until soft, depending on the size of the mollusks. In general to a few hours or soak overnight, more than 1 two flower glue is best to soak more than 1 day. (Summer soaking process should be placed in the refrigerator fresh room)
2, will be washed, remove grease (yellow, with the hand touching the oily ones is). If the grease is not clean, there will be a little fishy flavor. Remove the grease can be scraped with the help of a knife, scissors and other tools, if some can not be removed, cut off a little bit is also possible.
3, add water to the pot, the water boiled until rolling will be placed on the steam rack, high heat evaporation. (Mother glue can be added to the appropriate ginger to go fishy, flower glue rolled up is normal)
4, steamed after taking the flower glue with water constantly rinsed, cooled down and immediately placed in ice water soak, or directly soak the water into the refrigerator fresh room.
After the weight of the hair is about 3-4 times the weight of the hair before, that is, hair good. If it is not yet done, you can continue to soak it.
Flower Gums soaked in boiling water
1, flower gums first soaked in water until soft, small flower gums in general, 3 hours can be. (Summer soaking process to be placed in the refrigerator fresh room)
2, boil the water, (can be appropriate to add ginger to deodorize) poured into the gelatin, 3 minutes after pouring off the water, and then immediately put into the ice water to soak for a few hours can be.
Flower gums in the pot to cook
1, flower gums first soaked in water until soft, time depending on the size of the flower gums. In general to a few hours or soak overnight, more than 1 two of the best flower glue to soak for more than 1 day. (Summer soaking process to be put in the refrigerator fresh room)
2, pot of water boiling (can be appropriate to add ginger to go fishy), gelatin put into the pot to cook. The lid does not need to be covered, you can always pay attention to the changes in the gelatine. Cooking time refer to the above "evaporation" way.
3, after cooking the hair of the flower glue out of the water, cooled down and immediately placed in ice water, or directly soak in the refrigerator room. The weight of the hair is about 3-4 times the weight of the hair before the hair, that is, the hair is good. If it is not yet done, you can continue to soak it in water. Note: This method is not suitable for too thin and too small flower glue, because the flower glue is too small, once put into the boiling water can easily lead to hair over, time is not good control.
