The homemade "tamarind and pickled peppers" are more delicious and hygienic than those bought outside, and do not add preservatives and sorbic acid.
"Tamarind" can make many dishes, such as "fried tamarind with minced meat, tamarind fish with chopped pepper, tamarind with spicy tofu" and so on.
"Pickled peppers" can be made into chopped peppers and used to stir-fry fish-flavored dishes, as well as "chopped pepper fish head, chopped pepper fried beef, chopped pepper spicy fried cuttlefish" and so on. They are all very delicious.
Making "tamarind and pickled peppers" at home is very simple. The easiest way is just to soak in cold water, salt and white wine. It's a little more complicated, you can put some spices, etc., that will taste better. The key is to use qualified kimchi jars to make. Only use the kimchi jars to soak vegetables in order to ensure that they will not deteriorate. The old soup soaked in vegetables is also very delicious. You can use it to make "sour soup fish". It is absolutely appetizing and delicious. It will make you eat it forever, hehe!
Making "tamarind and pickled peppers" is the same method as making kimchi, and the most taboo thing about making kimchi is that there are bacteria in it. After entering the miscellaneous bacteria, it will deteriorate, and the deteriorated kimchi can no longer be eaten! The "Kimchi Jar" is a well-sealed container. The infused vegetables are sealed with water at the mouth of the jar. As long as there is no shortage of water in the groove of the seal, no bacteria can enter. During the fermentation of soaked vegetables, a large number of lactic acid bacteria that are beneficial to the human body will be produced. The lactic acid bacteria will produce carbon dioxide during the fermentation and expansion process. Due to the expansion pressure, the carbon dioxide with acid gas will be continuously discharged from the mouth of the jar. Because the groove of the mouth of the altar is sealed by water, the water is a flowing liquid, and the excess gas inside can be discharged out of the altar by the water, and the unclean air outside cannot enter the altar because there is no back pressure. Therefore, It can maintain the high purity of the strains in the jar, and all the beneficial substances such as lactic acid bacteria and vitamins will remain intact, which will make it taste pure and delicious, and will not be easily contaminated by bacteria.
It is recommended to use the water for soaking vegetables, be sure to use the boiled water after high temperature sterilization and let it cool, or use pure water or mineral water to keep the kimchi highly pure and hygienic. Put a proper amount of high-quality liquor inside to increase the aroma and prevent deterioration due to your negligence. The containers and utensils used must not be oily, and special chopsticks, spoons or clamps should be used for feeding. These small objects should be disinfected frequently to ensure that the kimchi is not contaminated by foreign bacteria.
The clean water used to seal the mouth of the jar is recommended to use cold water as well. Normal clean water will contain bacteria, which will quickly cause a layer of sticky substance to appear in the groove of the mouth of the jar. This is the water impurity. Caused. In addition, wipe the sealed sink every three to four days. Use a towel dipped in 1% 200 sodium hypochlorite water to wipe. When wiping, do not splash the water into the altar. Wring out the towel before wiping. After wiping, cover the lid and then Pour in fresh cold water to seal it.

Tamarind characteristics; salty, fresh and slightly sour, with a fragrant smell, can be mixed with chili oil and pepper oil, and can also be fried or cooked.

Stir-fried tamarind with minced meat; salty, fresh and slightly spicy, strong black bean fragrant, fragrant taste, very good for drinking and serving.



Tips;

1. Choose fresh cowpeas for brewing. After washing the cowpeas, dry the water or wipe off the water before brewing.

2. The spices can be matched according to your own taste. The flavor of the spices is better to be lighter, and the spices such as star anise and cumin should be used less, just add a little taste. You can put more tender ginger chili, and use it for cooking after soaking.

3. When using pickled peppers to make chopped peppers, it is better to soak them for more than 20 days to have a strong flavor and can be used to fry fish-flavored dishes. When using it, you can chop the pickled peppers into puree, or use a food processor to beat them into hot sauce, and use it with Pixian hot sauce to taste even better! The fried dishes taste more authentic!

4. If kimchi is brewed more than three times, it can be replaced with a new soup, otherwise it will be brewed too fast, and the taste will be too strong and the crispness of fresh vegetables will be lost. When you don’t need to replace the new soup, you should boil the old soup before making new dishes and let it cool before making a second time. This can keep the food clean and hygienic, especially when making kimchi in summer. The purpose of replacing the old soup after brewing a few times is to keep the kimchi fresh and crispy without making the taste too sour. Lactic acid bacteria must be replaced after repeated fermentation, and food hygiene and safety can only be ensured by eating frequently.

5. The old kimchi soup can be used to make delicious dishes such as "sour soup fish".
