When I was a child, some snacks could only be eaten during the Chinese New Year. In this memory full of gluttons, the taste of the New Year also seems more intense, especially the taste of fish skin and peanuts, which is still fresh in my memory. Crispy skin, full of peanut flavor when you bite into it, crunchy and crunchy. It’s often hard to stop. When I have time, I will also make some, so that the children can taste our childhood delicacies. If you want to eat fish skin and peanuts, you don’t have to buy them. I will teach you how to make them at home. They are crispy on the outside and fragrant on the inside. Every bite is crunchy.
I have always wondered why fish-skin peanuts don’t have fish skin. When I grew up, I learned that fish-skin peanuts originated from a Japanese specialty snack. The earliest preparation method was to mix the flour on the surface with Isinglass, hence the name. After people improved it, fish skin peanuts have nothing to do with isinglass, but whenever this name is mentioned, it is full of the taste of childhood. Fish skin peanuts can be made into various flavors, including sweet, salty and spicy. You can also add seaweed, matcha, etc. to create a variety of different flavors. Today I will share the most traditional sweet recipe and teach you how to make your favorite snack when you were a child, fish skin peanuts, which are crispy, delicious and irresistibly delicious.
Ingredients preparation: flour, starch, edible salt, sugar, baking soda, honey, edible oil, etc.
Specific steps:
First step, come first Kneading the dough, that is, making the fish skin, add 150 grams of flour and 150 grams of cornstarch to the plate, add 8 grams of salt to increase the gluten of the flour, then add 8 grams of white sugar, and add two grams of baking soda. Add 75 grams of honey and fry the fish skin peanuts with honey. The color will be more beautiful and crispy. Then add 80 grams of water in small portions. Use chopsticks to stir evenly. Start kneading into a slightly soft dough. Knead until the surface is smooth, cover and set aside to rest for about 20 minutes.
The second step is to prepare a small bowl of peanuts and clean them. Put it into a pot without water and oil and stir-fry to dry up the surface moisture and set aside.
In the third step, continue to knead the risen dough evenly and smooth, sprinkle a little dry flour on the chopping board to prevent sticking, move the dough to the chopping board, roll into thin strips, and cut into pieces. Use a small dose, just big enough to wrap the peanuts.
Flatten each small portion, wrap each peanut, pinch it tightly, then round it with your hands, and cook all the peanuts in sequence. You need to be patient in this step, but It's worth it for the delicious taste. It took me about an hour to make this small plate.
Step 4: Heat oil in a pot. The oil temperature does not need to be too hot. Pour in the wrapped peanuts and fry them slowly over low heat. Do not stir them first and wait until the surface is set. When the peanuts float, stir them properly to ensure that all sides are heated evenly and are fried thoroughly. Fry the skin until it turns brown, then control the oil and take it out.
A few more words:
① The cleaned peanuts must be drained of surface water, otherwise they may crackle and injure people during the frying process.
② Note that the whole process must be fried over low heat. Do not turn too much at the beginning to avoid breaking the skin. After the fish skin and peanuts float on the surface and are set, keep turning to prevent it from burning.
The home-cooked version of fish skin peanuts is ready. How about it? Isn’t it particularly simple? Peanuts are rich in minerals and vitamins. Eating more for children can promote growth and intellectual development. As a home-made snack for children, it is nutritious, healthy and hygienic. It is also a good drink for dads to drink tea and wine. It tastes sweet, salty, crispy and delicious. I don’t know what to do with peanuts.
