1. Chicken powder
Chicken powder is a common condiment, whether it is a hotel chef stir-fry or a home-cooked stir-fry, we like to add some chicken powder to taste, which can increase the umami and aroma of the dish.
Is chicken powder the same as chicken bouillon? Many people think that chicken powder and chicken essence are the same condiment, in fact, chicken powder and chicken essence are different, chicken essence is a compound umami agent, it contains chicken powder, egg powder, but also adds understanding protein, flavor nucleic acid, and has a certain amount of refined salt and chicken fat. The main raw material of chicken powder is fresh chicken, which is made with some seasonings, and in this regard, chicken powder is more natural and healthy than chicken essence.
Generally speaking, chicken powder is not harmful and can be eaten with confidence.
2. Homemade method of chicken powder
Earlier I introduced a condiment instead of chicken powder, which is made with shiitake mushrooms and shrimp as the main ingredients, although this method of "chicken powder" is simple and the seasoning is good, but it cannot be called a real "chicken powder" because it does not contain chicken ingredients.
Today we are going to share the homemade method of family chicken powder, this kind of chicken powder is more fragrant and healthier than what you buy in the supermarket, and there are no additives, and the method is very simple, let's see how it is done.
Ingredients: 600 grams of chicken breast, 100 grams of dried shiitake mushrooms (soaked in advance), 50 grams of shrimp skin,
Ingredients: Ginger,
Step 1: Prepare two pieces of fresh chicken breast, the price of chicken breast supermarket is very cheap, almost 10 yuan per catty, and two pieces of chicken breast are almost more than 10 yuan.
Ginger slices,
Clean the chicken breast, then put it in a pot under cold water, add an appropriate amount of cooking wine to remove the smell, and put the ginger slices in.
Bring the water to a boil, skim off the foam with a spoon when the water is boiling, then reduce the heat to low and cook for 20 minutes. After 20 minutes, remove the chicken breasts, then put them in cool boiled water and wash them again. Control the water and let it cool, and tear the chicken into shreds with your hands after the chicken is cooled.
Line the baking tray with tin foil, spread the shredded chicken on the tin pan, preheat the oven for 5 minutes in advance, put the shredded chicken into the middle layer of the oven, the upper and lower tubes are at a temperature of 200 degrees, and bake for 20 minutes.
After 20 minutes, take it out, break the chicken strips with your hands, and break them as soon as you break them.
Let the shredded chicken cool and set aside.
Clean the soaked shiitake mushrooms, then squeeze out the water, cut them into thin strips with a knife, also line the baking tray with tin foil, spread the mushroom strips into the baking tray, put them in the middle of the oven, and bake them at 200 degrees for 20 minutes.
After 20 minutes, take it out, pinch it with your hands, and the shiitake mushrooms can be powdered. Let the roasted shiitake mushroom strips cool and set aside.
Wash the shrimp skin with water, squeeze out the water after cleaning, put it in the pot, fry slowly over low heat, fry the water dry, keep stir-frying when frying, prevent the paste of the pot, fry the shrimp skin patiently, fry it for about 15 minutes, pinch it with your hands, and the shrimp skin will become powder. Remove the shrimp skin and let it cool.
Step 2: Put the shredded chicken, shredded mushrooms, and shrimp skin into the wall breaker, add a little salt, 2 handfuls of rock sugar, and press the sauce button to beat into powder.
The chicken powder made in this way is fragrant, clean and hygienic with zero additives, very healthy, and even better than the one bought.
Pack it in a glass jar, seal it and it can be left for 1 year.
To sum up:
1. Chicken powder to do this, health and hygiene without any additives, better than the taste of buying, you can do it without an oven, you can also use a pot to fry shredded chicken and mushrooms until fragrant, fry slowly over low heat, but it will take a long time, and it will be much more convenient to have an oven.
2. The shrimp skin cannot be baked in the oven, it must be fried in a pan until fragrant, because the shrimp skin will be pasted when baked in the oven.
