In winter, the weather is cold, and everyone likes to cook some stews. When cooking stew, vermicelli is essential, especially when stewed with pork. Q bomb is smoother than meat.
The production process of vermicelli is complex, and the process varies from place to place, so there are many colors of vermicelli, such as gray, yellow or tan. The best vermicelli is sweet potato vermicelli, which can be cooked in many ways, such as cold salad, stir-frying, soup making and hot pot rinsing. No matter how you eat it, it is delicious.
With the increasing demand of fans, there are some fake sweet potato fans in the market, which taste much worse, so pay attention when buying.
How to distinguish the true and false sweet potato vermicelli? Many people don't buy vermicelli. Let me share with you the skills of picking vermicelli. An aunt of my hometown vermicelli workshop told me that you can tell the truth of sweet potato vermicelli by looking at these four points. Learn from me.
Skills of choosing fans
1, color
There are two shapes of vermicelli in the market, one is a strip and the other is a ring. No matter what shape, just look at the color. Sweet potato vermicelli has two colors, gray and yellow are sweet potato vermicelli, but it should be noted that the purer the color, there is no impurity, which may be a fake.
Sweet potato vermicelli will have some impurities more or less, and it can't be so pure, so vermicelli with different shades of color is good.
2. Toughness
Vermicelli is a dry product, which can be judged by its toughness. If other things (such as edible gum) are added, it has strong toughness and is not easy to break. If the vermicelli is broken gently, it means that it is really sweet potato powder made of starch.
If the vermicelli is bent many times without breaking, glue must be added. This is a fake sweet potato vermicelli.
Step 3 taste
Sweet potato vermicelli is made of starch in sweet potato. If it is a real vermicelli, it will definitely have a faint sweet potato starch flavor. If there is no smell, it is probably fake vermicelli. If there is pungent smell, sour taste, fishy smell and other odors, this vermicelli is either fake or bad, so don't buy it.
Step 4 burn it
All the vermicelli sold outside are loaded. The average boss can prove that his vermicelli is good by burning it. Burn vermicelli. If you can smell the burning and twist the ashes with your hands very delicately, there are no particles, which means it is true.
If it is a fake vermicelli with other substances added, it will have a pungent smell or unpleasant smell after burning, and there are many small particles in the ash. This is because gelatin cannot be fully burned, while sweet potato starch can be fully burned.
Through these four aspects, we can quickly judge the authenticity of vermicelli. Fake vermicelli not only tastes bad, but also has no nutrition. Eating it is not good for your health, so stay away from fake vermicelli when buying it.
