[purple sweet potato and snow ear soup] - the first course of 2012 New Year's Eve dinner (sweet soup)
Introduction:
"Spring Festival is the sweetest and happiest day in our year. This year's new year's Eve dinner, like last year's, is at home. After eating, watch the Spring Festival Gala and wait until midnight to light the fireworks to welcome the new year. I didn't prepare much meat for the new year's Eve dinner, because it's not the same now as before. I usually don't eat less of what I should eat, and I have to take care of their intestines and stomach. But it's not to say that I want to do something different for such an important reunion dinner. I want to be more popular with my family. Like a restaurant, one dish at a time, you can cook a table full of love for your family with your hands. This year's new year's Eve dinner, I prepared 12 dishes, representing 12 months of the year, the first and last, I intend to serve dessert, meaning sweet, sweet from beginning to end. Among the 10 dishes, I update them one by one according to the menu sequence I expected. This is the first dessert on the table - purple sweet potato and snow ear soup, which means the new year's red and purple with color. Purple potatoes, tremella, and quail eggs are all nutritious foods, and they are suitable for both the elderly and children. "
Production steps:
Step 1: prepare a Tremella.
Step 2: prepare some quail eggs, raisins and 1 purple potato. (in the picture, I cut the purple potato)
Step 3: prepare the right amount of rock sugar. (the amount of sugar depends on what you like, but for the sake of health, it is not recommended to be too sweet.)
Step 4: soak Tremella in water in advance.
Step 5: remove the yellow root on the back and tear it into small flowers.
Step 6: cook the quail eggs and peel off the shell. Steam the purple potatoes in the pan and set aside.
Step 7: add tremella and enough water to the casserole.
Step 8: cover and bring to a boil over high heat. Turn to low heat and simmer for about 1 hour.
Step 9: cook until the tremella is soft and glutinous, and the soup is sticky with silk.
Step 10: add the steamed purple potato, mix it gently, and continue to cook for about 10 minutes.
Step 11: this time tremella soup will turn purple, add rock sugar, quail eggs and raisins, mix well.
Step 12: continue to cook for about 5 minutes.
Materials required:
1 Tremella: appropriate amount
1 purple potato: appropriate amount
Quail eggs: moderate
Raisins: moderate
Rock sugar: right amount
Note: poem heart phrase: 1: purple potato first cut and then steamed, if steamed and then cut, so easy to break, not into pieces. 2: The amount of purple potato is related to the deep purple of the soup. If there are many purple potatoes, the soup will be purple. I used a medium-sized purple potato. The color is like that in the finished product picture. Because the sun is on the stove when cooking, it doesn't look so purple. 3: In fact, it takes time to cook in casserole. You can put it in a pressure cooker and cook it for about 30 minutes. It's very viscous. I've cooked it. 4: This kind of sweet soup must be cooked until the tremella is soft and glutinous, the soup is thick, and the taste is very good. 5: The amount of rock sugar depends on your preference, but it is not recommended to be too sweet. 6: Don't add dates in this sweet soup, so as not to cover up the taste of purple potato. In addition, it is suggested to add quail eggs, but not raisins.
