Steps for Chinese cucumber salad
1
Prepare 2 straight cucumbers and wash them for later use.
2
Cut cucumbers at a 45-degree angle and cut coir coat with a knife.
3
If you don't have a good grasp at first, you can put a chopstick on both sides of the cucumber, so that the knife will not cut the cucumber when it falls.
4
Cut from head to tail
5
After cutting one side, cut the other side in the same way.
6
It will become much longer after cutting it apart.
7
Both sides are connected but not disconnected. It's like pulling flowers, huh?
8
Cut and place in a container and sprinkle with salt.
9
Wrap the salt evenly on the cucumber with your hands.
10
Wrap and marinate for a few minutes.
11
After a few minutes, some cucumber water will be marinated in the container. At this time, squeeze it dry with your hands slightly harder to squeeze out the water.
12
Put the squeezed cucumber into a container, add 2 tablespoons of soy sauce, 3 tablespoons of mature vinegar, 2 tablespoons of white sugar, and appropriate amount of MSG, as long as the cucumber is not eaten. Sweet and sour taste can be added or subtracted according to your preferences.
13
Cut the garlic into minced garlic and place it on the cucumber.
14
Add 2 spoonfuls of chili powder, add more if you like spicy.
15
Pour the oil into the pan, cool the oil, add appropriate amount of pepper and 1 star anise, stir-fry 70% of the oil until fragrant, and turn off the heat.
16
Pour the oil over the garlic and chili powder.
17
Stir well while the oil is hot.
18
After cooling, place it in the refrigerator and soak for half a day. But the taste will be better the next day! It tastes better if it takes longer to marinate.Chinese cucumber salad Make Tips
1. Cucumbers should be slender and straight, so that they will be easy to cut.
2. Those who are not very good at coir coat knives can place a chopstick on both sides of the cucumber, so that the cucumber will not be cut when the knife falls.
3. The ratio of mature vinegar to white sugar is almost 1:1. As long as you have not eaten cucumber, you can add more vinegar if you like to eat sour.
4. The oil can be 70% hot. If the oil temperature is too high, the chili powder will burn out. Hot oil must be poured on the garlic and paprika powder to remove the spicy taste of the garlic and make the aroma of the garlic and paprika powder more perfect.
5. The longer the soak time in the juice, the better the taste will be.
