Hello everyone. Sea cucumber is one of our indispensable winter tonic, which has a good effect on improving immunity for both the elderly and children. Starting from winter solstice every year, eating sea cucumber continuously for 3 months has a lot of benefits to the body, which can improve one's immunity and make the body healthier. With the improvement of people's living standard, more and more people, begin to pay attention to the health of the body. A balanced diet and the right amount of supplements have also become the goal of many people.
I have to buy some sea cucumbers for soaking every year, and some years ago, I bought Liao Sen, and many merchants boasted that their sea cucumbers were wild, but the soaking was bare, not sinewy and not chewy, and the thorn feet were thin and sparse. Later on, a friend introduced Russian wild sea cucumber to me, and after soaking it for several times, I obviously felt very good. The following is a summary of the main points of sea cucumber soaking with Russian sea cucumber as an example.
1. Rinse the sea cucumber one by one with clean water, take a basin without oil and water, put in the sea cucumber, add pure water, soak for 24 hours, and change the water once.
2. 24 hours later, the sea cucumber has been softened, we hand and scissors are cleaned with detergent, and then prepare a basin without oil and water, soak the softened sea cucumber from the middle of the stomach to cut, take out the head of the sand beak, and then cleaned.

If you want the sea cucumber to rise a little bit, you can cut the inner tendons horizontally into three sections, and then put the cleaned sea cucumber into a steamer with no oil and no water, plus a little bit more pure water, and the amount of water should be no more than the sea cucumber.
3. Steamer on the heat, high heat boil, turn the heat down to simmer for 30 minutes, each sea cucumber can be held in the middle with chopsticks when the sides can hang down, it is basically cooked, then turn off the heat, natural cooling.

4. When the sea cucumber is completely cooled down, take out the prepared pot, add pure water into it, the amount of water should be no more than the sea cucumber, and then add an ice bottle or ice cubes, cover with a layer of plastic wrap, put it into the refrigerator, soak it for 24 hours.
5. This is the first day after 24 hours of soaking, see how much bigger it is? This sea cucumber's thorns are very full and sharp, and the quality is good.
6. Then change the water once and continue to soak for 24 hours.
7. This is the second day of soaking, look at the Russian two red has risen and fat, this 6 rows of thorns is very thick, very strong Oh.
After three days and three nights of soaking, stewing and soaking, our Russian wild sea cucumber is ready.
We sealed each sea cucumber with a plastic bag and put it in the freezer. When you want to eat it, take it out in advance to thaw it and steam it or make sea cucumber millet porridge, which is very good. After steaming, pour a little soy sauce, the taste is very good, the entrance is smooth and delicate, memorable.

Notes are as follows:
1. When the sea cucumber is soaking, all the things in contact with it must be guaranteed to be free of oil and water, that is, the natural secretion of the skin grease on our hands, we have to use detergent to wash it;
2. When you put it into the refrigerator, make sure to add ice cubes, to ensure that the soaking in the low temperature, so that the effect is better;
3. In order to ensure that the soaking effect, the whole process should use pure water Oh.
Recently I soaked again, because I did not put ice, but also because the refrigerator temperature is not low, resulting in the soaking effect is not as good as in the past, but the same taste gluten, smooth and delicious.
