Stir-fried Crispy Pork Skin with Peppers and Onions

Overview

Pork skin is a meat product raw material with high protein content. Meat products such as pork belly, skin jelly, and ham processed from pig skin not only have good toughness, but also have good color, aroma, taste, and texture. They also have important physiological health effects on human skin, tendons, bones, and hair. Pig skin contains a large amount of collagen protein, which can be converted into gelatin during the cooking process. Gelatin has a network space structure, which can bind a lot of water and enhance cell physiological metabolism. Dry weather can help your skin remove wrinkles and hydrate your skin. The cold and dry winter is the season when human skin is easily dehydrated. At this time, wrinkles will quietly creep up to the corners of your eyes and then extend to the entire face. Wrinkles appear on human skin because the water storage function of skin cells is impaired, the ability of cells to bind water is reduced, plasticity is attenuated, elasticity is reduced, and mucous membranes are dry. To delay or reduce the appearance of wrinkles, you must consume some collagen and elastin that can improve bonding. Meat skin is a food rich in collagen, which has special effects on wrinkle reduction and beauty. Pork skin (including pig trotters and pig tails) contains 26.4% protein, which is 2.5 times that of pork, and more than 90% is macromolecular collagen and elastin, whose content is comparable to bear paws. Collagen has a special nutritional effect on the skin. It can enhance the vitality of skin cells with low water storage function, improve their functions, promote the absorption and storage of water by skin cells, prevent the skin from drying out and wrinkles, and make it rich, plump, smooth and smooth; elastin can increase the elasticity and toughness of the skin, strong blood circulation, sufficient nutrient supply, wrinkles stretch, become lighter or disappear, and the skin appears delicate, delicate and smooth. The pig skin prescription listed in "Treatise on Febrile Diseases" by the medical sage Zhang Zhongjing pointed out that pig skin has the effect of harmonizing blood vessels and moisturizing the skin, and has been used throughout the ages. Meat skin can make your muscles and bones strong and your hair flowing. In addition, collagen is an indispensable nutrient that makes up human muscles and bones, and it also promotes the growth of hair and nails. Chinese medicine also believes that pig skin is sweet in taste and cool in nature, and has the functions of nourishing yin and replenishing deficiency, clearing away heat and soothing the throat. If you want your hair to be elegant, don’t throw away your skin easily. There are many ways to eat pig skin at home, such as pork skin jelly, which can be eaten with meals or as snacks. Put the meat skin and washed dried red dates into a pot, add an appropriate amount of water, simmer over low heat, add an appropriate amount of rock sugar, and you can also make meat skin and red dates soup. After the pork skin is dried, it is fried (the dried pig skin is first washed with alkaline water to remove the oil on it, dry the water on the surface, and then deep-fried in warm oil until golden brown and crispy, then it can be stored for later use). With proper cooking, it can be made into a delicious fish maw-like delicacy. For example: put the deep-fried pork skin into warm water until it is cooked through, wash it and cut it into small strips. When eating, use chicken stock or broth.
