There is a question. Are Zanthoxylum oil and sesame oil the same oil?

Actually, they are not. They are similar, but they are different. What are the differences? Let's share their homemade methods respectively. By making them, we can distinguish their differences.

2. The method of homemade pepper oil

Pepper oil is sold in supermarkets, but chefs and rural aunts still like to make pepper oil. First, it costs less, and second, it tastes better, which is hygienic and healthy, which makes people feel at ease.

There are many methods to make Zanthoxylum bungeanum oil, such as oil dissolving method, oil soaking method, oil spraying method, physical pressing method and so on.

Today, we share two common methods of making Zanthoxylum bungeanum oil:

The first method: the method of making Zanthoxylum bungeanum oil which is fragrant and hemp

Material: dried Zanthoxylum bungeanum seeds

Step 1: Prepare 5 grams of dried Zanthoxylum bungeanum seeds, which are bright in color and full and uniform in particles, so that the Zanthoxylum bungeanum oil made from these Zanthoxylum bungeanum seeds is tasty, hemp and fragrant. Wash the pepper seeds first, and then dry them in the sun.

prepare 2ml of cooked oil. What is cooked oil? It is boiled oil, or it can be fried fish and fried chicken wings.

Prepare a bowl, pour in pepper seeds, then pour in cooked oil, and fasten a plate on it to prevent steam from flowing in, and at the same time, prevent aroma from losing. Put cold water on the pot, and steam for 3 minutes after the water is boiled.

taken out after p>3 minutes, the steamed pepper oil is full of hemp flavor, but the fragrance is obviously not enough, because it lacks the fragrance that is only available at high temperature. At this time, the second step is to filter the pepper oil and separate the oil from the pepper.

Step 3: Heat the pan, pour the filtered Zanthoxylum bungeanum seeds and a little hot oil into the pan, and turn on a small fire to fry slowly.

After the Zanthoxylum bungeanum seeds are fried to a thick fragrance, pour the Zanthoxylum bungeanum seeds into the Zanthoxylum bungeanum oil again. At this time, the fragrance of Zanthoxylum bungeanum oil will come out, and cover it again to reduce the volatilization of the fragrance. After cooling, filter and put it into a glass bottle, and seal it for a long time. Don't put it in a plastic bottle, it will taste bad after a long time.

the fragrant and hemp pepper oil is ready.

3. Self-made method of sesame oil:

Raw materials: 2 grams of pepper and 2 grams of pepper

Step 1: Put pepper and pepper into a bowl and soak them in warm water for 1 minutes.

clean a handful of parsley,

cut half an onion into rings,

slice ginger

Step 2: heat the pot, add three spoonfuls of farm rapeseed oil, burn the rapeseed oil until it is old, and then turn off the fire. When the oil temperature is about 5%, put ginger, onion and parsley in, stir-fry with low fire, and turn it over with a spoon to make the spices evenly heated and excite the fragrance inside. Be sure to clean up the remaining impurities, so that the pepper oil will be clear, beautiful in appearance and better in taste.

drain the soaked pepper and pepper for later use.

fire, raise the oil temperature to 4% heat, the oil temperature will be calm and there will be no smoke, pour the pepper and pepper, stir constantly, fry for 1 minute,

turn off the fire after the pepper and pepper change color, and take out the oil. The purpose of this step is to effectively remove the water from the pepper.

pepper with pepper, green and red, isn't it beautiful? Sichuanese also call it Longfeng pepper.

fire, raise the oil temperature to 6% heat, and when the smoke starts to emit, turn on a small fire and fry the pepper once more. The purpose of this step is to fry them dry, which is convenient for releasing fragrance. Turn off the fire after frying for about 2 minutes. The surface of pepper and pepper has become brittle, and take out the oil under control.

fire again, raise the oil temperature to 5% heat, and the surface of the oil smokes slightly. Put the pepper and pepper into the pot again and fry for about 3 minutes. At this time, the strong fragrance will come to the nose, and we can turn off the fire. Add a few lids of high-alcohol liquor, which can stimulate the fragrance of pepper and pepper. Pour the fried pepper into a basin to cool.

the fragrant and hemp pepper oil is ready. Then filter with a strainer and bottle the pepper oil.

To sum up:

1. Zanthoxylum bungeanum oil and sesame oil are different. Zanthoxylum bungeanum oil is made of only one raw material, while sesame oil is made of pepper and pepper.
