The canned XO sauce should be placed at room temperature for 3 or 5 days before opening the bottle for use. After opening the bottle, it needs to be refrigerated for storage.
Tips:
1. When preparing the ingredients, try to cut all the ingredients to the same size so that they can be cooked consistently when they are fried.
2. If you are not sure about the oil temperature and the time sequence of cooking the ingredients, you can fry each ingredient separately, using medium and small heat throughout the process to prevent frying.
3. Onions can be replaced with shallots (Shallot) for a stronger fragrance.
4. If you like spicy food, you can put chili, adjust according to personal taste.
5. If the amount of oil in the finished product is not enough, you can burn a little more oil and pour it in after heating to ensure that all the ingredients are immersed in the oil, which can extend the storage time.
6. Leave the prepared XO sauce for a few days and wait for the ingredients to fuse with each other and taste better.
7. Refrigerate after opening the bottle, and use clean utensils every time you take it. It can be stored for at least 1-2 months.
