---Content production? Questions and answers?---
①: Why do potato slices need to be soaked multiple times?
We know that any ingredient with high starch content will be soft and glutinous when made into cooked food, without any crispiness.
Potatoes are such an ingredient. They have a high starch content. After being cut, the starch liquid will seep out. Soaking them multiple times will precipitate excess starch, and the starch content will be less, so the potato slices will taste crisper. In addition, soaking potato slices can also prevent the potato slices from oxidizing and turning black. If the potato slices are cut thinner, the starch precipitation effect will be better
②: What is the role of adding vinegar when blanching potato slices?
We know that immature potatoes contain a large amount of solanine, which can easily lead to poisoning if eaten in excess. There is also solanine in ripe potatoes. The acidic substances in vinegar can neutralize this alkaline substance, making it healthier to eat. In addition, the acetic acid in vinegar can protect the cell walls of potato slices so that they do not lose water, ensuring that the potato slices do not become soft and have a crisp texture. This is the effect of adding vinegar to fried shredded potatoes.
