At noon, I pushed open the glass door of the balcony. A strong smell of marinated meat came. My son and I took a deep breath. They both called - wow. It's delicious. Then make a drooling expression... Unable to resist the temptation. We rushed to the supermarket. We bought back the materials we needed. We started a pot of new brine. The pig's hooves were marinated overnight. Although it's new brine, it's delicious.
Step1:Prepare the spices you need - cilantro, white pepper, licorice, cinnamon, star anise, clove, fennel, Xiangguo, Amomum, cardamom, Gansong. Clean the scallion, tie the knot, clean the ginger and beat it. Put all spices except scallion into the gauze bag. Fasten the bag mout
Step2:Put the ice sugar on the fire first, or burn it with a torch
Step3:Stir fry sugar - heat rapeseed oil. Add crushed rock candy. Stir slowly over low heat. Stir until rock candy melts. Caramel color appears
Step4:Pour 500ml boiling water into the scrambled ice sugar. The sugar color will be ready
Step5:The pig's hooves should be cleaned. The streaky pork should be cleaned. The blood should be removed. The floating foam on the surface should be cleaned
Step6:Add 5 liters of high soup or water, green onion, pepper, dry pepper, cooking wine, raw soy sauce, old soy sauce and spice bag to the meat. Boil it in high heat. Slow brine in low heat. Marinate until it is colored and tasty
Step7:The time of stewed pork is shorter. The time of pig's hoof is longer. The time of stewed pork is so long that it can be easily pierced with chopsticks. Start the pot and let it cool thoroughly before cutting
Cooking tips:You can't fry too much sugar. Otherwise, there will be a strange smell of burnt brine that can be frozen and stored for the next time. You have to filter it once. Filter out the small slag inside. If there is too much oil on the surface, you have to remove the skill of cooking.
