Operation essentials:
1. The brine must be kept well, and condiments must be added according to the quantity of dishes each time to ensure the consistency of the taste of the dishes.
2. When braised vegetables, the fire should not be too high. Use a low fire. If the fire is too high, it will easily dry out the brine, and the brine will easily turn black and black.
3. Don't add too much salt when mixing, because it will taste salty when it is marinated, but you must add a little salt so that the sauce of the mixed vegetables will have a salty taste. Otherwise, the seasoning of the mixed vegetables will be too salty if it lacks salt. Unpalatable.
4. The fried peanuts should be added last, as they will become soft and not crispy if added too early.
