Bacon and winter melon soup is a traditional home-cooked dish here. The bacon is marinated during the twelfth lunar month last year and kept in the refrigerator to make winter melon soup in the summer without too much bacon. Sometimes it is just sliced into thin slices and added to suspend its salty flavor. It is just right to drink in summer. It is full of salty flavor and is very appetizing.

Ingredients

600g Winter Melon
400g Salty Ribs
2 tbsp Rice Wine
a little Shallots
a little Sliced Ginger

Salty Ribs and Winter Melon Soup

1. Peel the winter melon, slice and wash, chop the salty ribs into pieces, and wash with warm water

2. Prepare ginger slices, rice wine and shallots

3. Bring the salty ribs to a boil in a pot under cold water and then cook for 5 minutes to pick up and wash. This step can remove the greasy and salty taste

4. Then add the ribs to the electric pressure cooker, pour in water, add the rice wine, ginger slices, and shallots together

5. After powering on, select the ribs stall, when the time is up to open the lid, pick up the green onions inside

6. Pour the winter melon

7. Press for another 5 minutes to burn until the winter melon is transparent

8. Sprinkle with chopped green onion after serving

Tips:
1. The ribs I marinated are not salty ones. If they are salty, we need to soak some of the saltiness in clear water before cooking, so as not to be too salty.

2. After adding the winter melon, don't press it. The winter melon is easy to ripen, and it will affect the taste.
