Recently, the temperature has dropped a bit sharply. It's super cold, so I want to have a hot pot in the winter.
Suddenly I wanted to eat sheep scorpion. I went to the supermarket to buy it. The supermarket was so frozen and hard that it cost 20 yuan a catty. Then I went to the vegetable market in the residential area to buy it. I thought it was out of stock. I had to book it one day in advance. 15 yuan a catty, is it really impossible to eat it in the end?
For the sake of food, I had to be a little persistent, put my things home, and went to the nearby fresh wholesale market. Wow! Unexpectedly, the sheep scorpion here is the cheapest, the freshly picked sheep scorpion is only 12 yuan a catty! I bought the ingredients I wanted, and when I got home, I simmered it for a full afternoon. The meat was crispy and fragrant. I enjoyed a hearty hot pot meal with my family. It was enjoyable and delicious. It's comfortable and super affordable, and it saves more money than in a restaurant.
This pot is really too big. I boiled three catties of sheep and scorpions. There is not a lot of froze in the pot. Let’s have a vegetable together. It’s really enjoyable!

Sheep Scorpion Hot Pot

1. Sheep scorpion is a complete sheep spine with tenderloin and spinal cord. Because its shape is similar to that of scorpion, it is commonly called sheep scorpion.
Cut the sheep scorpion into small pieces, put two slices of ginger in a pot under cold water, boil until the water boils, remove and set aside.

2. Pour oil into the pot, add green onions, ginger, garlic, bay leaves, cinnamon, angelica, pepper, aniseed, dried chili, and fry until fragrant.

3. Put the lamb scorpion in the pot and stir fry.

4. Add cooking wine and light soy sauce.

5. Put the other green onions, ginger, garlic, ginger, dried chili, pepper, aniseed, bay leaves, cinnamon, and Angelica dahurica into the matching drain box in the pot.

6. Suction the material box on the bottom of the pot, and put the fried lamb scorpion into the soup pot.
There is an oil hole at the bottom of the material box and there is an iron absorption, which can be firmly adhered to the center of the soup pot, so that when the pot is cooking, you don’t have to worry about eating peppercorns when you eat, and the meat slices that are easy to find are cooked in the material box. Not afraid to find it.

7. Put salt in the pot and use the soup function of the induction cooker to simmer the lamb scorpion for 2 hours or 4 hours.
When eating hot pot, you can add vegetables, seafood, fish balls and other cooking together.

Tips:
1. The sheep scorpion must be splashed with water to boil off the dirty blood foam, so that the stewed soup will be clear.
2. If you eat sheep scorpion hot pot outside, you will smell a strong spice, a bit of Chinese medicine. This thing is ginger, which is generally available in pharmacies or places selling dry seasonings. It is very cheap.
