Hot and sour yellow curd
Overview
I remember that I didn’t eat fish before I was five years old. It wasn’t that I didn’t like fish, but that I didn’t dare to eat fish. Once when I was eating fish, I accidentally got stuck on a fish bone. My throat hurt for several days. I didn't dare to drink water or swallow anything. From then on, I stopped eating fish. It is true that once bitten by a snake, I will be afraid of well ropes for ten years. Although every time I see my family eating fish happily, a piece of white fish meat enters the mouth, and the fish bones come out after chewing a few times, the skill is comparable to that of a cat, I am really envious. Why don’t I have that ability? (Welcome to exchange more interesting kitchen anecdotes, please add WeChat EJM2467) When I grew up, my family always persuaded me to eat fish. They tried all kinds of methods to encourage me, seduce me, and threaten me (I was not tall when I was a child, and my parents tried their best to supplement my nutrition). No matter what, it didn't work. I just didn't eat it. In fact, I was also greedy, but I knew that I couldn't eat fish. I was so addicted to it that my throat would suffer. So I just stood up and let the glutton in my belly watch helplessly as the delicious food in the bowl was swept away by the family. Until one time, my mother made a plate of braised carp. It was charred on the outside and tender on the inside. It had bright juice and an alluring aroma. I couldn't resist it anymore. I risked getting stuck and carefully ate the long-lost fish. It was so delicious. To this day, I still remember how embarrassed I was when I ate fish. Maybe it wasn’t called eating fish at all. I just crushed the fish meat with my hands, picked out the fish bones, and made sure there were no fish bones before stuffing it into my mouth. So the embarrassed look is funny when I think about it now (I wonder if any of my friends have had similar experiences). Since then, my fish eating skills have gradually improved. Fish is one of the white meats that we often eat in our lives. Compared with red meat (which is red in color before cooking and contains a lot of saturated fatty acids), it has a more delicate texture and better taste. At the same time, it contains unsaturated fatty acids that are more beneficial to human health and is loved by nutritionists. Yellow catfish, also called yellow catfish, is a freshwater fish. Chongqing people are not ambiguous when it comes to eating. All kinds of ingredients can be eaten in various ways in the hands of the chef. I have eaten it once before in a restaurant in Chongqing that specializes in yellow wax dices. The delicious milky white soup is rich and fragrant; the white meat is delicate and delicate in the mouth. A mouthful of fish and a mouthful of soup is really delicious. The spicy and sour yellow bacon dish I made today not only has the unique flavor of pickled peppers, but also has potatoes and lettuce as the bottom of the bowl. The combination of meat and vegetables adds to the richness of the dish.

Wash the potatoes and lettuce, peel them and cut them into shreds. Pour water into the pot, boil, and blanch them in boiling water (add some salt to the pot to taste)

Put the blanched shredded potatoes and lettuce into the bottom of the bowl and set aside
-
Remove the internal organs and fish gills from the yellow wax cubes, and then make diagonal stripes on the surface with a knife (it is easier to absorb the flavor) and set aside for later use. Cut the pickled peppers (I pickled the pickled peppers myself, but you can also buy the pickled peppers from the supermarket), chop the old ginger and garlic, and cut the red pepper into sections for later use
-
Heat the oil in the pot until it is 7 cooked, add the peppercorns, ginger, garlic, red pepper and pickled pepper and saute until fragrant

After the auxiliary ingredients are fragrant, pour an appropriate amount of water and boil, add the prepared yellow wax dices, boil over medium heat, then reduce to low heat and simmer for 3 minutes, sprinkle with an appropriate amount of salt and serve
-
After taking it out of the pot, put it into a bowl lined with shredded potatoes and lettuce, sprinkle with chopped green onion, and you will have a steaming bowl of hot, sour and spicy yellow wax cubes. Don’t you feel a special sense of accomplishment?
