If you take stock of the best dishes in summer, a plate of salted peanuts and edamame will definitely rank first. Whether going to a restaurant or a food stall, a plate of peanuts and edamame is not only a delicious dish, but also a refreshing dish. But friends who like to eat peanuts and edamame will find a problem? Why are the peanuts and edamame sold outside so appetizing, green and delicious? The edamame cooked at home is yellow in color and the peanuts are soft, waxy and tasteless.
I specially consulted a friend who is a chef in a restaurant. It turns out that the super simple peanut edamame still has many tricks in cooking. As my friend did, I tried again. If so, the boiled peanut edamame will be delicious soon, and it will not change color at all, and its taste will be crisp. To sum up, we only need to remember three tricks to make edamame.
Ingredients: peanuts, edamame, salt, edible oil, pepper, star anise, cinnamon, fragrant leaves and fennel.
Specific practices
1. Wash the bought edamame and peanuts with salt, cut off both ends of edamame, and pinch a small bite of peanuts, so that it is easier to taste quickly when cooking.
2. Pour water into the pot, add pepper, star anise, cinnamon, fragrant leaves and fennel to boil, and cook the aroma of aniseed. You can add a few dried peppers if you can eat spicy food.
3. Pour in edamame and peanuts. If there are more peanuts than edamame, you can first pour peanuts and cook for two minutes, and then pour edamame to continue cooking.
4. Add a spoonful of cooking oil to ensure the green of edamame.
5. Add edible salt, stir quickly and evenly, and continue to cook for 5-8 minutes.
6. Take out the cooked peanut edamame immediately, stir and cool quickly, and don't soak it in the soup while it is hot, the edamame will still turn yellow. After the soup is cold, you can put the cooled peanut edamame into the soup again and soak it in cold storage, which will be more delicious.
Cooked peanuts and edamame, it's so enjoyable to have a plate on a hot summer day! Usually, I buy a dish outside for 12 yuan, but make a big pot at home for 12 yuan!
First, peanuts are small and edamame is fried at both ends. Cook the aniseed first, and then cook the peanuts and edamame, which can make edamame taste quickly;
2. Boiling peanut edamame and pouring a spoonful of edible oil is the key to keep edamame green;
Third, don't cook peanuts and edamame for too long. Don't cover the pot all the time, so the edamame won't turn yellow.
