Pickled Lentils
1.
Today’s steps start with picking lentils!
2.
Separate the two types of lentils: purple lentils have thick flesh, small pods, inconvenient to shred, and difficult to pickle. Choose the green one.
3.
Look at the light to see if the veins inside are clear, whether there are worms, and the worms break and throw away the parts that have been eaten by the worms.
4.
Break and tear off the ribs on both sides along the sharp corners.
5.
The processed lentils were selected, and Mickey's head was placed to tease the baby.
6.
Rinse with running water, rub gently while washing, until it is clean.
7.
Drain the water.
8.
I picked four red peppers and sliced them in random shapes, as long as the lupines match.
9.
Cut the lentils diagonally into shredded lentils with a width of nearly one centimeter. If you cut them too finely, the marinade will taste a little rough.
10.
Pour the chopped lentil shreds into a large basin, add coarse salt, and knead it with your hands until the lentils are all transparent. I don’t remember the time and it feels quite long.
11.
Add some shredded red pepper and ginger, mix well and marinate for a while.
12.
Put it in a fresh-keeping bag and take it home, ready to transfer it into a jar.
13.
Prepare a clean jar without water and oil.
14.
Pour the lentils directly in.
15.
Use a bag to wrap your hands and press the lentil shreds tightly. (Chili is hot, since I added red pepper shreds, I have been protecting my hands)
