3.Production key.

1) Soup baking uses soup as the heat transfer medium, some of these soups are additional soups and sauces, and some are juices produced by raw materials during the heating process, commonly known as original juice. Whether it is an additional soup or the original juice, it is required to have a strong flavor and a baked product with strong aromatic characteristics.

2) In the actual operation of baking, generally after the lid is added, it is first heated with a fierce fire until the soup boils, and then changed to medium or slow heat, and baked for a period of time, so that the flavors can penetrate each other and form a delicious compound taste.

If the crockpot is used as a cooking utensil, although the heat transfer is slower, the heat preservation and flavor preservation performance is better, which is conducive to the formation of delicious compound flavors, so many famous dishes cooked by the baking method use the crockpot as a cooking utensil.

3) The method of preliminary cooking of raw materials has a great impact on the quality of dishes, and in the soup baking method, the methods of preliminary cooking treatment include frying, frying and pulling oil.

Generally speaking, using the frying method, the internal meat quality of the product is relatively fresh and smooth, and the color is more bright, but the frying color is often not easy to be uniform, especially if the surface of the raw material is uneven, the shortcomings are more prominent.

If the frying method is used, the surface color of the semi-finished product is relatively uniform, and the operation is fast and easy, but the inside of the product is often not tender enough, and the skin is also prone to wrinkles, which affects the appearance of the product; The method of pulling oil is also relatively simple and fast, and the meat is tender, but the product is not fragrant enough.
