Mussel shells and meat eating
Mussels, in medicine, there is a cough, eyesight effects. The Materia Medica also says that it quenches thirst and removes heat, quenches the poison of wine, and removes the redness of the eyes. And in the Jianghan Plain will also be divided into lake mussels, mussels and weir mussels, it seems to live in different waters and get the name, but its function is not a big difference. Generally speaking, living in the lake and river mussels, both its size and its meat quality, are better than the weir and field mussels. And the best meat quality is the river mussels. The best mussels are the long mussels that live along the Yangtze River. Even in winter, if you use these mussels in a hot pot, no matter how hot it is, there is no heat coming out of the hot pot. This is the beauty of eating mussel hot pot.
And the most competitive mussels is that it can produce real pearls, the best of the large particles, color crystal, is a treasure, often ancient laborers to the royalty tribute to one of the must-have items. Even now, natural pearls, large and round and colorful, but also very rare. But after raising the precious spider after the mussels, is the precious spider after taking out and get, so this kind of mussel meat is poor, old and tough, suitable for the production of old soup, than the mussel meat to be a lot worse than the mussel meat, after all, because of its production of the precious spider baby!
Another use of the pearl is, not only when the child produces fever, there is an immediate effect, and can be a soul, stop seminal emission of white cloudy, antidote pox and boils, the main difficult to give birth to and under the stillbirth cytotoxic.
Mussel shells are also rare good things, do not throw away. In addition to the use of shells for carving and medicinal herbs, more in the farmhouse and is the most widespread use, that is, used as a tool for Luang Tofu. Every Lunar New Year's Eve, in the Jianghan Plain, including the Dongting Lake area around the farmhouse will be busy, in addition to killing the New Year's Eve pig, and then is to play patties and Lang tofu. Tofu is made by grinding mung beans and rice into a paste and then kanging them one by one in a pot at night. In order to make a good bean curd, a good and sharp mussel shell is the first choice of the farmers! The general rule is that the mussel shells should be large and shallow, so that when they are used to scoop up the bean curd paste, there is neither too much nor too little rice paste. More, the tofu skin is thick and greasy; less, there are holes in the skin, not beautiful not to mention, but also affects the interest of the lively. Generally speaking, before using mussel shells Luang Doupi Zi, it should first be processed. Processing, the shell on the texture should be ground smooth, especially the opening of the sharp edges should be smoothed. The point of smoothing is the sharp edge can not be too sharp, but to be smooth, so that in the Luang tofu if there are seen at the bottom of the pot of the cavity generated, it is used to encrypt a little bit, until the soybean skin is completely closed until. Generally do bean skin masters can grind a handful of good clamshells! This time the clam shells have a new term, Luang Doupi scoop, colloquialisms and vernacular is called "lake scraping". And "lake scraping" selection of materials, generally to the old mussels as the best.
In the rivers and lakes of the southern part of the country, there were a lot of mussels. But now, in this era of eating everything, mussels are not a lot. If there are not many of them, they will be more expensive than they are rare. The good thing is that now everything can be raised, mussels are no exception. But after raising them, how to eat them, many people still do not know. Here I will introduce.
In winter, mussels hot pot is the best way to eat. In the spring to a fried mussels, is also good. When the weather gets hot, a hot chowder is not too bad.
The most basic way to cook mussels is to flavor them spicy, put vinegar in them, and clean them. But before you start all that, you have to separate the shells from the meat of the mussels. This time it is necessary to use a knife to dig the mussel meat out of the shell, it is necessary to pay attention to be careful, so as not to hurt your hands, the sharpness of its shell, all have eyes **** witnessed.
After the separation of its shell meat, the meat is used to eat, which is delicious people know the thing, which I have no need to say, to say is how to cook.
Mussels must be washed before the pot, but there is no technique to achieve the effect of eating clean mussels. Wash mussel meat and wash snail meat is the same, in addition to repeated kneading and washing with water, but also put in boiling water over, and then wash again, so that it is clean. Otherwise the sand particles on the meat will bruise themselves. Never pay attention to is, with boiling water over, can not over too very much, so as not to meat aging, not delicious not to mention, but also hurt their teeth....
After the mussels are cleaned, they should be cut into thin strips of silk, and the water should be rolled on the stove, put in a large number of sharp chili peppers, and add vinegar to remove their waking flavor, and all kinds of ingredients should be indispensable, and stewed in the hot pot, and the meat should be tender and tasty.
When frying braised mussels, the previous process is the same, only when frying can not be overcooked, otherwise it will not bite Oh!
These days, the market is the time when the mussels are the most abundant, the price is cheap, you can try.
