Homemade pickled cucumbers: a summer anti-heat artifact, crisp and delicious.
Summer has arrived, are you still worried about the heat of summer?Today, I would like to introduce you to a delicious homemade pickled cucumber that will give you a refreshing taste and delicious enjoyment even on a hot summer day.
First of all, we need to prepare the following ingredients: cucumber, millet spicy, garlic, Sichuan pepper, star anise, rock sugar, light soy sauce, water, salt. Next, let's get started!
Step 1:Wash the cucumber you bought and cut it into sections, and remove the core. This step is very important because the core of the melon will affect the taste of the cucumber.
Step 2:Sprinkle with 20g of salt and marinate for 30 minutes to make the cucumber flexible. Then, rinse twice with clean water, squeeze out the water, put it in a clean and waterless container, and put in the chopped garlic slices together for later use.
Step 3:Put 5g Sichuan pepper, 3g star anise, 10g rock sugar, 50ml light soy sauce and 30ml water in a pot, bring to a boil over high heat, turn to low heat and cook for another 5 minutes, then turn off the heat. Put the millet spicy into the pot so that the peppers don't turn black. Note that if your child can't eat spicy food, you can leave the chili pepper out.
Step 4:When the juice in the pot is cool, pour it into a container with cucumbers and garlic slices, stir well with dry chopsticks, cover and seal well, and put it in the refrigerator to marinate overnight. In this way, the cucumber will have more flavor and a more crisp texture.
