Tips on braised pig's trotters
Secrets of making bright and attractive braised dishes:
1. When you want to fry the sugar color, the sugar color doesn't need to be as red as caramel, in fact, as I said, it is easier to master, that is, the color is all brown, there is no white crystal sugar, and then when you start to bubble, you can pour it. At this time, you have five seconds to judge. Will not suffer.
2. Delicious meat and vegetables are not obtained by opportunism, but must be simmered slowly. I find that rice cookers are all very good! Then be sure to collect the juice.
3. Last time, a children's shoe said that the stew was always hard. I asked her how long it had been stewed. She said it was half an hour ... one and a half to two hours. It was neither soft nor hard. It happened that some people like to eat soft and rotten meat like paste, but I don't like it. I like to chew the meat with a little strength.
4, add salt, don't add it at the beginning, as the meat will be old and hard, and mix water with boiling water, whether it is boiling water or hot water. Never pour cold water. Cold water tends to smell fishy.
5. As for spices, grass fruits, fragrant leaves, and stewed meat are essential. There are all kinds of dry goods in supermarkets or vegetable markets. Store them at home, and stewed meat will be fragrant, which is especially delicious. The addition of pepper is also a bright spot.
