Delicious radish balls, tender and fragrant, simple to eat, eat once and never forget
In the ancient city, the world is full of countless stories of food. And these stories often unfold from one food after another. Today, I would like to share with you a mouth-watering delicacy – radish balls.
In the distant past, there is a time-honored restaurant called "100-year-old radish balls". Legend has it that this restaurant has been in business since the Qing Dynasty and has a history of 100 years. And the signature dish of this restaurant is the tender and soft radish balls. As a traditional dish, it has always been loved by diners.
Walking into this restaurant, a strong aroma of rice wine comes to your face. I was fortunate enough to be personally received by the owner, and after sitting down, he calmly introduced me to the uniqueness of this signature dish. The owner told me that their restaurant uses local specialty fresh carrots as the main ingredient, with fresh minced pork and a variety of Chinese herbs, with a little secret seasoning, and deep-fried until golden brown and crispy. The uniqueness of this dish lies in the fact that the meatballs are tender inside and out, the taste is delicate, and the unique aroma is endless.
Because of the special way this dish is cooked, I decided to take it upon myself and try to make a plate of delicious radish balls. In order to learn more about cooking skills, I also went to an online celebrity store "Sweet and Sour Chen Yi Paper". Here, I was fortunate enough to be invited to the kitchen and witnessed the process of making radish balls. The traditional cooking method is to chop the carrots, then stir them into a puree, then add minced pork and various condiments, stir well, and knead them into balls by hand. The meatballs are fried in the pan until golden brown, and then dipped in sweet and sour sauce, which is full of color and flavor.
However, in the process of experimenting with production, I realized that there are some things that can be optimized in this traditional method. First of all, the appearance of the radish balls is not beautiful enough, so I tried to make heart-shaped balls with eco-friendly ingredients, which are even more attractive when fried. Secondly, in the combination of seasonings, I added a little green onion, ginger, garlic and coriander to add the flavor of the meatballs. Finally, I tried steaming and boiling and found that the steamed meatballs were more tender and full, and the taste was better.
After a lot of hard work, I managed to make a plate of beautiful and fragrant radish balls. These little balls exude the warmth and happiness of home. Whether enjoyed at home or with friends and family, in this dish, we can feel the taste of home and the atmosphere of happiness.
As the owner said, "Gastronomy is a culture, a heritage." And radish balls are a gastronomic tradition in our city. "With its unique flavor and variety of preparation methods, radish meatballs have become an indispensable delicacy, which has a century-old heritage and incorporates innovative elements of modern cooking.
