Every fall is the season when radishes are on the market in large numbers. The price of radishes on the market is much cheaper than usual. Every year, I take advantage of this season to dry some dried radishes by myself and save them for winter stew and stir-fry. This method comes from my mother’s taste. When I was a child, I watched my mother every year. In autumn, some dried radishes are dried, and dried radishes will be pickled for a while. In winter, dried vegetables and side dishes are all dried radishes. Therefore, after this habit of making dried vegetables, I started to learn how my mother did. Passed down. Not only dried radishes, but also some dried beans and other dried vegetables. It's especially good to make stews in winter.

Different places have different drying methods for dried radishes. In some places, the radishes can be dried before they are dried. I have not tried this method. Many people say that after such dried radishes are dried, they will regain moisture. This is especially true in humid areas. In some places, the radishes can be dried, and the radishes can be dried after blanching in advance. I have experimented with this method. The main reason is that the time for blanching the radishes should be mastered. The taste of the vegetables, the taste is not good, and some radishes are cut and dried directly. This method is particularly important for choosing radishes. You can’t use radishes with more moisture to dry. If you want green radishes with less moisture, I’m just Dried radishes are dried in this way every year, and the taste is super good.

Sun-dried dried radish can be used to make many dishes. In my previous recipes, I just made dried radish recipes. There are roasted and stewed meats. If you like, you can check it out. This time there is no pork belly in Coco's family. Besides, the pork is really unaffordable now, and the price is ridiculously high. So I made "Dried Radish Braised Pork". Although there is no fat to increase the taste, I added chicken fat and braised it together. The aroma of chicken fat is not worse than that of fat. It is really rich and mellow. Dried radishes are more oily. In the process of making it, it is best to add some animal fats to increase the aroma and mellowness, so that you can eat the true essence of dried radishes!

Tips:

1. Dried radishes must be soaked well, it is best to soak overnight, so that the soaking is soft and delicious
2. The best meat is pork belly, which is more fat and thin, which is more delicious, because dried radishes are more oily. Use more fat and lean to taste delicious and mellow.
3. If there is no pork belly, you can add some lard or chicken fat to taste better.
