I believe that both young and old people have their own reasons for the definition of this delicacy.
[Name of food]: Tiger skin chicken feet.
[Prepare raw materials]: 10 pairs of fresh chicken feet, 15 grams of Sichuan pepper, 8 dried chilies, garlic slices, ginger slices, a little green onion, three star anise, two cinnamon.
[Preparation of auxiliary ingredients]: oyster sauce, cooking wine, light soy sauce, dark soy sauce, sugar, salt, chicken essence can be.
Step 1: First chop off the front of the toe of the fresh chicken feet, then put them directly into a 350ml pot of clear water, add a few slices of ginger, prepared Sichuan peppercorns, two spoons of cooking wine, stir a few times, turn on high heat and boil, then turn to low heat and simmer for six minutes, remove the chicken feet and control dry.
Step 2: Prepare a little more oil in the pot, turn the temperature of the oil to low heat, put all the chicken feet that control the dry moisture into the oil pot, fry until the skin is slightly yellow, turn off the heat, and proceed directly to the next step. Relative to this step, after the chicken feet are boiled, the surface skin has been cooked, and then after high temperature frying, the skin of the chicken feet can form a preliminary compartment, which makes the subsequent "tiger skin" form, which has the prerequisites; This step is also one of the most crucial steps in making tiger skin chicken feet.
Step 3: After that, prepare a bowl of 350ml of ice water (preferably with ice cubes), and quickly put the fried chicken feet into the ice water to cool down, about 15-20 minutes to soak; If you can see the tiger skin-like lines on the skin of the chicken feet, you can take them out and control the dryness. Relative to this step, the principle of thermal expansion and cold contraction should be very familiar to everyone, from high temperature to freezing point, is the second layer of mystery of the important step of tiger skin chicken feet.
Step 4: Add an appropriate amount of oil to the pot, add an appropriate amount of garlic slices, ginger slices, green onions, dried chilies, star anise, cinnamon, stir-fry over high heat until fragrant, pour in the prepared tiger skin chicken feet, stir-fry for one minute, add two spoons of cooking wine, a spoonful of light soy sauce, two spoons of oyster sauce, a spoonful of dark soy sauce, 5g of white sugar, 1g of salt and chicken essence, and stir-fry again for one minute.
Step 5: Finally, add water that is flush with the ingredients, stir a few times, boil over high heat, then turn to low heat and simmer until the soup is dry, and you can taste it.
