Working in a foreign country, eating a variety of dishes, is there a moment, a phone call, a sudden, from somewhere in the kitchen of the smell wafting out, let you stagnate, as if he met the old acquaintance, remembering the dishes made by your mother!
For me, the squeezed peppers in my hometown must be ranked first!
I remember when I was a child, adults were busy in the fields, and we would quietly open the cupboards at home and grab a handful to eat.
Also known as squeezed pepper in Hubei, it is a farmhouse specialty made from corn flour and started in October every year. It's a very ordinary home-cooked dish.
Press the pepper to prepare
Squeezing pepper is simple, first chop the pepper, remember when I was a child, every household would chop the pepper, put a large basin, adults with knives, hand knife drop red pepper chopped, that kind of nose spicy mixed in the air, far can smell.
In the farmhouse, basically everyone knows these special handicraft dishes, especially the daughter-in-law who marries into the door, in the case of lack of materials in the countryside, can only make some home-cooked dishes to fill the appetite of the family. Now it's different, the conditions are good, you can buy any condiment you need, and now the older generation of people who make fried peppers are still insisting on doing it, and the more they do this, the more precious it is.
Add cornmeal, rice noodles, then put salt, put into the jar to seal and ferment, after 2 weeks, open the opening, special fragrant Oh.

Store the jar of squeezed peppers upside down
Sealed in the jar, placed upside down, some erected, with straw at the mouth of the altar. It doesn't have much impact on the taste, and there's no problem with putting it for a year, so take a little out when you eat it.
Squeezed peppers are fried and appetizing, especially popular. When I was a child, every time I went out, my mother would fry it in a bag for me to take away, and a bowl of fried peppers could eat several bowls of rice. No matter where you are, the dishes of your hometown are so evocative!
If you make the peppers alone, first put them in the pot and stir-fry them evenly, and then add the rapeseed oil from the farmhouse, which will be more fragrant than other oils. Add a little water to make the squeezed peppers easy to form into lumps, not too thin, so that it is not easy to eat with chopsticks.
Slag pepper is more suitable for pairing with bacon, delicious food! First, the pepper is sautéed in rapeseed oil, then the cut bacon is added and stir-fried together to taste.
Simple ingredients, no tall ingredients. They are all grown and made by farmers deep in the mountains. Eating is the most exquisite tradition of Chinese, flying in the sky, running on the ground, and even some people eat the pursuit of different from ordinary people, this year's epidemic, is the result of eating, eating, not let us eat without moderation, the disaster comes out of the mouth, control their mouth.
