How to make delicious boiled vegetables

Vegetables are rich in vitamins and dietary fiber, so eating more vegetables can not only enhance the body's immunity, but also supplement the vitamins needed by the body. People who eat more vegetables and drink more water generally rarely get sick. However, vegetables are not delicious when eaten raw. There are some techniques required to cook vegetables. Only when vegetables are cooked well will people like to eat them. Here we will teach you how to make delicious boiled vegetables.

1 Rinse the dried mushrooms and soak them in hot water

2. Cut the lean meat into slices and wash them with hot water 1-2 times to remove the blood.

3 Put the sliced ​​meat into the casserole, add the soaked mushrooms and the water used to soak the mushrooms, add the scallion and ginger slices to enhance the flavor, then add appropriate amount of water, bring to a boil over high heat, skim off the foam, add pepper powder and white pepper powder to season, add appropriate amount of light soy sauce and salt, and cook over medium-low heat for 5-10 minutes.

Tips

1. Dried shiitake mushrooms have a very mellow and rich aroma, which is incomparable to fresh shiitake mushrooms. The water used to soak the shiitake mushrooms will also greatly enhance the flavor of the soup in this dish, so don't throw it away and waste it. (Of course, the premise is that you don’t hate the taste of mushrooms and the mushrooms you buy are of good quality)

2. Meat does not necessarily have to be lean meat. In fact, chicken is also a good choice. You can chop a chicken leg into several pieces. It is easier and quicker to cook. Of course, it is best to discard the chicken skin. Chicken breast is not recommended because it tastes too dry after cooking. If you don't mind the trouble, you can marinate the meat with some cooking wine for a while after cutting it, which will make it more flavorful. But this dish is quick, so I won’t be too particular.

3. The reason why the meat and mushrooms need to be cooked over medium-low heat for a while is to allow the protein to be better hydrolyzed so that the soup will be more delicious. Therefore, it is better to cook the meat first and then clean and wash the vegetables, which saves time and makes the food more delicious.

4. It is best to choose dishes that have no taste, unless you really like that taste, otherwise the soup will not taste good. I usually blanch the tofu in water first, so that there will be no beany smell in the soup; enoki mushrooms will make the soup have an alkaline taste, so I usually blanch them in water in advance as well.
