The vegetarian delicacy of cold celery and peanuts is simple to make, delicious and delicious, and I want to eat it after eating it once
One day, on a whim, I decided to set myself a sumptuous dinner at home. Walking into the refrigerator, my eyes were drawn to a bouquet of bright green celery. Through the transparent crisper bag, those delicate celery leaves seemed to beckon to me. Open the cabinet and find a packet of crispy peanuts. Decide on celery and peanut rice, this plate of fresh and appetizing cold dishes is undoubtedly the perfect choice.
After eating countless cold dishes, I became obsessed with the taste of celery and peanuts. A classic version of this dish, from celebrities to roadside stalls, served in almost every Chinese restaurant. Among them, the time-honored restaurant "Four Seasons Pictures" is particularly famous. It is said that the celery peanut rice salad made in the "Four Seasons Picture" was originally evolved from an ancestral secret recipe. Every day at noon, people come from far and wide to wait in line to taste this mouth-watering dish. When I spoke with the owner, she shared one of the unique features of this dish – it takes nearly half an hour to cook the celery with the steam of boiling water, which can keep the celery crisp and original flavor.
In order to better restore this dish, I decided to learn from the practice of "Four Seasons Pictures" and make an improvement and innovation in the way of a home-based chef. First of all, I blanch the celery with salt water to preserve its fresh color and texture. This stretches the celery's fibers and makes them more crispy. Next, I use hot steam to heat the celery evenly on both sides to ensure consistent doneness. By this time, the unique aroma has permeated the entire kitchen. Cooked celery is immediately soaked in cold water to achieve a crisp and refreshing taste.
Place the cooked celery and crispy peanuts in a large bowl and add the appropriate amount of chopped shallots, minced garlic, balsamic vinegar, soy sauce, sugar and a pinch of salt. Mix gently with chopsticks and let the seasonings soak into each celery and peanut. Finally, I sprinkle some cilantro and sautéed sesame seeds as a garnish.
After improvement, this cold celery peanut rice dish has a different flavor in the hands of the chef at home. It is the steam cooking that makes the celery more tender and blends perfectly with the crispiness of the peanuts. The overall taste is crisp, and the slightly sweet and slightly spicy seasoning adds a flavor and surprise. This salad with celery and peanuts can be served both as an appetizer and as a side dish for a main course. Whether it's a meal for one person or a dinner with friends, it's definitely a great choice.
Cold celery and peanuts are like a beautiful note, playing among the taste buds. Crisp celery and crispy peanuts release a wonderful harmony between chews.
