The practice of cold cucumber

1.

Wash all the materials. Cut the cucumber in the middle and gently crush it with the back of a knife. Pay attention to this step: you can't break the cucumber with the back of a knife. The broken cucumber doesn't produce juice, and it is too brittle to taste. Be sure to crush it gently and mix it with cold dishes to taste good.

2.

Chop the green part of green onion (green onion is easier to taste than green onion, and there is a lot of gum in the green part of green onion, which can improve the taste and appearance of cucumber), mix fine garlic powder with coarse garlic powder (fine garlic powder can improve the taste and appearance), and chop ginger powder for later use. Leave a short green part of the onion and cut it into small circles for the last step.

3.

Put the cucumber in a big bowl, dry or chop the pepper, add it (mainly for ornament and fragrance enhancement), and then add soy sauce, white vinegar, aged vinegar, apricot vinegar (there is no apricot vinegar, but apricot vinegar contains a small amount of natural fermented alcohol, which can improve the cool feeling of cucumber and reduce the stale taste of aged vinegar), Chili powder, sesame paste (white), white sesame seeds and white sugar.

4.

Cover the mixed cucumber with plastic wrap and put it in the refrigerator for more than half an hour. After taking it out, it will precipitate and need to be stirred again, and then put it on a plate. You can sprinkle a little pepper powder to improve the color after serving. Finally, put the green onion rings reserved in the first step on the ornaments, and it is finished.

Cooking tips

1, the best choice for cucumber is small, tender, crisp and slightly sweet.

2. Cucumber will lose its refreshing taste if it is pressed too much. When pressing, you can press two kinds, so that there are both pieces (very broken but still connected) and small pieces, which are delicious and crisp.

3. The proportion of seasoning can be adjusted according to your own taste.

4, too much salt will mask the aroma of cucumber, soy sauce contains salt, and then add a small amount of salt to refresh.

5. Sesame paste has a strong fragrance. Too much is boring. There are all other flavors, as long as they are suitable.

6, eat cold, be sure to have a matching food to eat together.
