ingredients: 1 piece of bitter gourd, 5g of white shellfish, 1 piece of ginger, appropriate amount of pepper, and appropriate amount of sesame oil
1. First, put Bai Bei into a container, then add three spoonfuls of salt, and then knead by hand. There are many dirty things on Bai Bei's shell that are difficult to clean. We can use salt to increase the friction between white shells, and then clean the dirty things on white shells. In addition, Bai Bei's shell may be slippery, which is the mucus secreted by it in water, and salt also has a very good effect of removing and deodorizing.
2. After kneading for a period of time, add clean water and wash it twice. We can see that the water is dirty, and it is clear that the shell of shellfish is dirty. Many people think that Bai Bei looks white and needs no cleaning, but it is beyond many people's imagination.
3. Then cut the bitter gourd in two, then remove the bitter gourd seeds and gourd ladle with a spoon, and then cut into small strips. If it is cleaned clean enough, the bitter taste of bitter gourd will be much reduced.
4. after the ingredients are processed, you can start cooking formally.
5. Add a proper amount of water to the pot, then add ginger slices to the water, and cook for 5 minutes to make the water full of ginger flavor, then pour Bai Bei into the pot, at this time, the water temperature in the pot will be lowered and it will be boiled again.
6. After boiling, a layer of white foam will float on the noodle soup, which is a little black. We should remove this layer of foam.
7. After all the white shellfish are opened, we will put them into another container.
