Xuzhou characteristic snack -- Crystal frog fish

Introduction:

"Frog fish is a summer delicacy loved by Xuzhou people in Jiangsu Province. Because it looks like a tadpole and sinks in the water, it is called "frog fish". Beijing's "Pink Fish" is a bit similar to it, but its shape and taste can hardly be compared with Xuzhou's characteristic snack frog fish. Every hot summer, in the streets of Xuzhou, you can see frog fish snack stands everywhere. They are usually sold together with cold skin, fried string and bean curd. These four kinds of Xuzhou snacks seem to have infinite magic power, tempting the adults, children, men and women in the streets of Xuzhou. Everyone is keen to sit on a small bench around a small table and enjoy the journey The traffic is listening to the noise of the street, and eating the Sweet Chili Sauce Fried String and crystal frog fish. This is the unique scenery of Xuzhou

Production steps:

Step 1: 100g sweet potato starch (the taste of the finished product will be better if it is yam starch).

Step 2: 500 grams of water.

Step 3: only a small amount of alum can be taken.

Step 4: soak and mix the sweet potato starch with water until it is precipitated.

Step 5: wait for the starch to precipitate, grind the garlic into minced garlic, and wait for a while to make garlic juice.

Step 6: shredded mustard slices (no Xuzhou specialty radish mustard, only Sichuan mustard slices to replace, but the taste is far less than the unique sweet and spicy taste of radish mustard).

Step 7: because there is no sauce made of the kind of chili sauce ground in Xuzhou, we have to use bottled chopped peppers to make spicy flavor.

Step 8: wait for a while, after starch precipitation, skim the surface impurities with a spoon, leave a little water, take a small amount of alum and add it to the starch to mix well.

Step 9: prepare a sieve pot with large mesh and put a basin of cold boiled water under it (it's better to put some ice cubes in the cold water to make the frog fish take shape quickly).

Step 10: bring half a pot of water to a boil.

Step 11: pour the precipitated starch into the boiling water and stir in one direction with a large spoon. Because of the expansion of starch heated, instant gelatinization into starch paste.

Step 12: continue to stir the starch paste with a spoon continuously, open the medium heat to avoid the bottom of the paste.

Step 13: until the starch paste becomes translucent gel like, it's a little hard to stir, then you can turn off the fire.

Step 14: quickly pour the hot starch paste into the large mesh sieve pot, and press it down with a big spoon, so that the starch paste will flow out of the mesh and fall into the cold boiled water. After cooling, it looks like a tadpole, that is, a frog fish.

Step 15: This is the finished product of crystal frog fish. Is it like little tadpole fish?

Step 16: finally, to mix the sauce, mainly for the production of Xuzhou characteristic sweet vinegar. The ratio of rice vinegar, water and sugar is 1:1:2 (adding sweet vinegar to frog fish will make the taste sour and sweet, more palatable and more flavorful). In addition, prepare a small bowl of vinegar, add some MSG.

Step 17: ha ha, the super attractive crystal frog fish is on the table! I believe that will bloom your taste buds, from now on you can't stop, and forever aftertaste!
