Asparagus Fermented Pork Knuckle
1.
First, prepare the ingredients and ingredients for making asparagus fermented pork knuckle. Spring is the period when asparagus grows vigorously. Now the asparagus purchased in this season will be thicker and crisper. When preparing, you only need to cut off the harder part of the tail. Cut ginger into slices. Take out the pork knuckle and put it in a large bowl.
2.
I bought pork knuckle of black pig. The meat is firmer, the muscle texture is clear, and there is very little fat. This kind of pork knuckle will be more fragrant. Sometimes there may be some uncleaned pig hair on the epidermis, which will affect the taste and vision. It is necessary to clean the uncleaned pigs.
3.
Pour clean water into the bowl and soak for half an hour to remove the blood and make the pork taste better.
4.
At this time, the asparagus can be blanched. Add water to the pot and bring it to a boil. Add a teaspoon of table salt. The blanched asparagus will be crisp and green without turning yellow. Pour the asparagus into the pot and blanch it for 15 seconds.
5.
Remove the pork knuckle that has been soaked in blood, and use kitchen paper to absorb the moisture on the surface. In order to avoid scalding and scalding during the frying process.
6.
Pour a little oil into the pot, put the pork knuckles in the pot one by one, and start frying on medium heat.
7.
Fry one side until golden, then fry the other side.
8.
When both sides are fried until golden, add the light soy sauce, cooking wine, sugar, and fermented bean curd to the pot, then add water and ginger slices. As long as you add water to the stew, you need to add enough water at one time. Do not add water in the middle, so as not to affect the taste of the stew. The production process of fermented bean curd is high in salt, so you don't need to add salt, or you can add a little according to your taste.
9.
Bring to a boil on high heat, turn to low heat and simmer for about 1 hour. Although there will be some blood foam after being soaked in blood water and boiled, all the foam needs to be skimmed off.
10.
Cover, turn to low heat, and simmer for 30-40 minutes.
11.
When the skin is simmered until it can be moved with chopsticks, you can turn on the heat to collect the soup. When the soup is thick and the meat pastry is rotten, you can turn off the heat.
12.
Drain the asparagus from the cold water and place it neatly on a plate. Take out the stewed fermented bean curd knuckles and place them on the asparagus, and pour the soup in the pot. The pork knuckle is crispy and glutinous, and it is fused with fermented bean curd, which is delicious and unique.
Tips:
When collecting the juice on a high fire, pay attention to pushing and pushing the pork knuckle to prevent bottoming or muddy bottom.
