Ingredients

Steps

1. 1 Wash the cucumber, slice it into strips, mix it with salt and marinate it overnight to remove the excess water, then put it into a mesh bag and put a heavy object on top to press out the excess water (press for half a day or a day). This way the cucumber will be crispier!

   

2. 2 After the cucumbers are pickled, add 1-2 heads of garlic

   

3. 3 Cut 8-10 thick slices of ginger

   

4. 4 I used more than 2 pounds of Haitian soy sauce and sugar (the standard is to cover the cucumbers), boil it and let it cool for later use

   

5. 5 Fry the aniseed and chili pepper until fragrant

   

6. 6 The chili oil is ready

   

7. 7 Add the cold soy sauce, vinegar and chili oil and mix well

   

8. 8 Put the mixed side dishes into a sealed jar, and you can also pour some white wine on top to keep them fresh and season them.

   

9. 9 The porridge and side dishes for breakfast are very appetizing!
