Cold Cowpeas
Overview
Yesterday, I just served a dish of fried pork with green beans, which attracted a lot of boos from my friends. Isn't it just a simple dish of fried pork with green beans? As for the way it is said to be so high-end, it seems to be a delicacy in the world. Tsk tsk, okay, that’s all. Regardless of whether the ingredients are rich or low, the appropriate cooking methods can always produce delicious food in the world. I remember when I was in the countryside, the season for eating green beans was also the season when another vegetable was on the market in large quantities. It is the protagonist of today - cowpea. On the field ridges in summer, the vegetable gardens are full of green beans and cowpeas. These two dishes are simply common guests on country dinner tables. I still remember that when the cowpeas were fresh, they were fried and eaten. If you couldn’t finish them, you would make kimchi. Finally, if you couldn’t eat them anymore, you would boil the cowpeas in boiling water and dry them in the sun to make dried cowpeas. Chongqing people love to eat this kind of dish from fresh to stale. Dried cowpeas have a special flavor after being exposed to the sun and baptized by the breeze. But today’s cold cowpea dish is to restore the original taste of cowpeas. There are no special ingredients. It just uses the sweet and sour tomatoes and the garlic flavor to add a touch of flavor to the cowpeas. The finished dishes are bright in color, sweet and sour, and the mouth and teeth are like feeling the cool breeze coming from the countryside, which is refreshing and refreshing.
