Every winter in the north, we always make pigskin jelly, the Q bombs are refreshing, and it relieves the greasy. Every time it is served, it will be robbed.

The history of pigskin jelly dates back to the Qing Dynasty and is a major invention of the Manchus. It first removes the pig hair from the pig skin, cuts it into small pieces and simmers with water until the pig skin is integrated with the water and becomes fluid, then puts it in a container, freezes and solidifies at a low temperature and cuts it into small pieces, and eats it with garlic sauce. It is very refreshing and delicious. This dish must go through a process, which is low temperature freezing. In the natural cold climate in the north, it is very suitable for making pig skin jelly. Cut the pig skin into thin strips, boil it and put it in a basin, and bring it to the outside window sill or yard. It can form a gel-like pigskin jelly at night. The warm climate in the south is not conducive to the solidification of pigskin jelly. Southern friends who love pigskin jelly need the help of the refrigerator to make pigskin jelly.
