What should I do if the dried abalone shrinks after being boiled in hot water?

First prepare a pot of hot water, put the abalone into the pot, simmer for 30 minutes, and then cool naturally. Then cover and store for a day and night. Repeat this process 3 times.

The next day, take out the abalone soaked overnight and clean it. After changing the water, put the abalone in the pot and cook. Remember to put a bamboo divider at the bottom of the pot to prevent sticking. (This is the second time to cook abalone) Simmer for 30 minutes and then cool naturally. Keep covered until the third day.

On the third day, repeat yesterday’s production process.

On the fourth day, the abalone has become very thick. But the inside is not soft yet. Next, the abalone needs to be cleaned to remove the sand bladder from the abalone. This is how it tastes.

Use a brush to gently scrub around the abalone. After cleaning, prepare to unload.

The water for soaking abalone needs to be reserved this time. Then put the abalone into clean water and put it in the refrigerator. Let it sit for about half a day.

Take out the abalone and steam it for 3 hours before it becomes soft and tender. The abalone with sweet heart will be delicious. Add water during this period to prevent it from drying out. This soaking water needs to be retained. It is needed when simmering abalone.

After 3 hours, it cools down naturally. Prepare the ribs and pork belly (the abalone must be fat and oily enough to cook), cut the chicken into large pieces, and blanch them all.

Boil water and add ginger cubes. Add pork ribs, large pieces of pork belly, chicken nuggets, and chicken feet and blanch them.

Put the clean abalone to the bottom of the pot. Then place the abalone on the ribs.

Then place the chicken pieces, chicken feet, and pork belly reasonably and evenly on top of the abalone. Put clean abalone water into the pot.

Put enough water in and do not change the water midway. Put 2 pieces of ginger. Remember to use bamboo separators at the bottom. After boiling, skim off any foam floating on top and simmer for 3 hours.

Repeat the previous step until the bamboo skewer can penetrate the center of the abalone.

After it settles naturally, take the abalone out of the pot. After continuing to cook the abalone alone for 3 hours, the abalone will be soaked. You can then add mushrooms and vegetables according to your taste.

When cooking dried abalone, remember to put a bamboo partition at the bottom of the pot to prevent it from sticking.

The gizzards of abalone need to be removed to make it delicious.

Cooking abalone requires patience in order to enjoy the original flavor.
