I went back to my hometown after work last night, and as soon as I entered the door, my mother mysteriously pulled me to the side room, pointed to a bulging black bag, and smiled and asked me to guess what was inside. I casually guessed a few things, but my mother said it was wrong, and then opened the bag for me to see, and it turned out to be a bag full of "elm money".
Yuqian is one of my favorite wild vegetables, when I was a child, I often naughtily climbed the tree to pick and eat, one by one, I took off the elm money, put it in my mouth and chewed it slowly, you will be impressed by its sweet and sticky taste. At that time, elm money was a life-saving food, when you were tired of eating the corn flour wotou with a throat, come to a plate of green steamed elm money, or drink a bowl of elm money soup with a few silk egg flowers, it was really delicious in the world!
I didn't expect that after so many years, my mother still remembers that I love to eat elm money, and when I heard that I was going home, she prepared it for me early, which is really pitiful for my parents in the world! Although it was very late after I went home last night, I still couldn't wait to steam a plate of elm money overnight to eat, and the long-lost taste memory was opened in an instant, I wanted to only taste a few chopsticks, but the result was that I couldn't stop my mouth after eating a bite, and I ate a plate of steamed elm money! It's really enjoyable!
Because elm money does not contain oxalic acid, it can be eaten raw directly, and it tastes smooth, tender and sweet; In fact, Yuqian is not only delicious to eat raw and steamed, but also delicious to wrap dumplings with it, let me share the practice of my Yuqian dumplings, which are tender and juicy, and one bite is too fragrant!
【Yuqian dumplings home-cooked practice】:
1. Pick the elm money first, take off the black stem, and carefully pick out impurities and insects in the process of picking. Elm money is naturally grown, because there is no pesticide, so it is inevitable that there will be small insects, don't worry and be afraid, just pick up the insects and throw them away.
Put the picked elm money in clean water and rinse it carefully several times, wash until the water becomes clear, and drain the washed elm money for later use. Because elm money does not contain oxalic acid, there is no need to blanch, and the dumplings will taste more delicious without blanching.
20. Prepare a piece of pork with three parts fat and seven points lean cut into small cubes and put it in a large bowl, then add an appropriate amount of salt, light soy sauce, oyster sauce, pepper, sesame oil and a little dark soy sauce, stir well with chopsticks, marinate for 0 minutes to give the meat flavor and remove the fish.
3. Then take another handful of black fungus and soak it in hot water, blanch it in boiling water, take out the fungus after about a minute to cool, and then chop it and set aside.
4. Take two or three eggs into a bowl, beat them with chopsticks, then pour hot oil into the beaten egg liquid and fry them, fry them until they are evenly sized eggs, turn off the heat, and put them on a plate for later use.
5. Finally, put the elm money, pork filling, fungus, and broken eggs together, then add some chopped green onions and minced ginger, then add a little more cooked oil, a little salt, an appropriate amount of chicken essence, and stir with chopsticks for a while to let the flavors of various fillings blend with each other, so that the juicy yuqian dumpling filling is well adjusted, and it smells fragrant!
Yuqian is the only wild vegetable that does not contain oxalic acid, it is fresh and nutritious, and it is eaten in season, and the dumplings are too fragrant! Now that Yuqian is in season, hurry up and wrap a meal of Yuqian dumplings for your family to try, if you miss it, you will have to wait until next year.
