When the SARS epidemic spread in 2003, the "miracle" of "zero infection" in Guizhou shocked the whole country. This year, the "new crown" epidemic spread throughout the country, and although there are also confirmed cases in Guizhou, the number is very small. Many people joke that this is all due to the fact that Guizhou people eat houttuynia and have "folded ear root protectors". Although it is just a joke, the medicinal value of the folded ear root is indeed very high. However, today we first talk about how Guizhou people use folded ear roots to make food.
First, cold mix fold ear roots
As an appetizer, I believe that many Guizhou people are particularly familiar with it, and the method is particularly simple. Wash the root of the folded ear and choose a short and even section, with Guizhou special paste pepper, soy sauce, monosodium glutamate, salt, vinegar and chives mixed well to eat, if you add bitter garlic (mountain garlic) taste even more wonderful. This cold dish, with a crisp taste and a strong sense of layering, is an indispensable dish on the table of Guizhou people.
2. Fry the ear roots
The fried folded ear root is crispy in texture and has a lot less fishy taste, but still retains its fragrance. This dish is simple, it is also after washing the folded ear root, selecting the short and evenly grown sections, frying until golden brown, draining the oil, and then sprinkling with Guizhou characteristic spicy pepper noodles. Friends who can't eat spicy can also replace chili noodles with cumin noodles, pepper noodles and other condiments, this fried folded ear root as a snack, under the wine dish is simply addictive, delicious can not stop.
3. Stir-fry bacon with folded ear roots
Folded ear root stir-fried bacon is a characteristic traditional dish in Guizhou, the tenderness of folded ear root, the salty aroma of bacon, can be called a match made in heaven. Here's how to do it: wash and cut the bacon into thin slices, set aside in water, wash and cut the ear roots into 3 cm knots, marinate in salt water for 2 minutes, rinse and drain. Start the pot to burn the oil, dried peppers, garlic slices under the pot to fry, and then the folded ear root, bacon together under the pot of stir-fry, add chicken essence, sugar, a little soy sauce to enhance the taste, this dish do not put salt, and finally add garlic seedlings after stir-frying evenly can be out of the pot. This dish has a unique taste, crispy on the outside and crisp on the inside, rich in high protein and rich in nutrients.
There is an old saying in Guizhou, "Guizhou eight monsters, grassroots as a good dish." This is enough to show the importance of the folded ear root for every Guizhou people's table, of course, there are many people who can't accept its taste, but it does not affect the Guizhou people's love for it.
