How to make dried bamboo shoots without the sun?

Bamboo shoots often appear on people's dining tables in the form of fresh bamboo shoots. Big winter bamboo shoots (bamboo shoots) in winter and small bamboo shoots (arrow bamboo) in spring are very seasonal wild vegetables. However, the wisdom of ordinary people can not be ignored. Our ancestors had a way to store this seasonal dish, drying it in the sun or salting it with salt. Can be preserved for a long time, even after the season, eat if you want!

Under normal circumstances, whether it's winter bamboo shoots or spring bamboo shoots, it needs particularly good weather to make dried bamboo shoots. A batch of dried bamboo shoots can be dried in the hot sun for two days. When there is no good weather, you can spread a thin layer in a bamboo container such as a sieve and put it in a ventilated and dry place to dry or bake. Of course, this is limited to a small amount of storage at home. If the production of dried bamboo shoots is large, a dryer is generally used, and the efficiency will be much faster than that of natural air drying.

I'm Hao Jing, from Qinba Mountain area in the south of Shaanxi. We produce bamboo shoots here, that is, thin and long arrow bamboo. Every April or so, this small bamboo shoot will be on the market in large quantities. Some people are trafficked from mountainous areas to neighboring cities, and sometimes they can buy good ones for four or five yuan a catty. Moreover, our family will dry some dried bamboo shoots every year in mid-April, when bamboo shoots are the cheapest and the most. Come and share my experience with my friends.

Buy some fresh bamboo shoots on a sunny day. The fresh bamboo shoots bought are all blanched and rinsed. Take it home and wash it again. Then remove them and control the water. Sprinkle a thin layer of salt and mix them well. When the moisture is controlled to dry, pour it into a big container (there is only one bamboo screen in my house) and spread it out in the sun. Soon, the surface of bamboo shoots turned white and tender bamboo shoots were peeled off. You can turn it over manually and continue to dry it.

In fact, according to our local experience, dried bamboo shoots should not be completely dried, and the sixth and seventh floors are best, with a little softness. Put it away at this time and put it in the refrigerator for freezing. There is no problem in keeping it for one year. Mainly, the second soaking of bamboo shoots is easier to cook, too dry to cook, and the taste is not as good as semi-dry. Braised bacon soup with dried bamboo shoots, hot pot and braised pork are all our favorite dishes at home.

Some people say that salt cannot eat dried bamboo shoots. Actually, it doesn't matter to put a little less, not too salty. Pickled vegetables are very popular in many places and can be used for storage. We don't eat them every day. Eat them in moderation and change your taste once in a while! What do friends think?

All kinds of delicious bamboo shoots can grow in mountainous rural areas all year round. Of course, for farmers who own bamboo forests, fresh bamboo shoots cannot be preserved for a long time, so they need to be made into dried bamboo shoots. Dried bamboo shoots can not only be preserved for a long time, but also be used as accessories for many foods, such as dried bamboo shoots and old duck pot. . .

But how can it be made without the sun? Don't worry, now that social technology is developed, we can make it in the oven and slice it in the oven. Also, it can be dried with charcoal fire, which is more idyllic. Methods are all people's ideas. You can try these methods!

If there is no sun, you can find a cool place to dry it. I feel that sometimes it tastes much better when it is dried by the sun. My family often dries dried radish and dried bamboo shoots, both of which are very good. Especially after the dried bamboo shoots are dried, I can soak them in cold water for a day in winter and fry them with pork belly, which tastes like fresh bamboo shoots. With a bowl of white rice, I feel I can eat three bowls! Stop talking, my mouth is watering.

Spring is a rainy season. I remember when I was a child, my grandmother couldn't finish eating many bamboo shoots, so she peeled them in half, boiled them in water, fished them out and tore them into strips. When it rains, she will build a charcoal fire, cover it with a big bamboo cover (I forget what it is called), and then evenly sprinkle shredded bamboo shoots on it, so that the charcoal fire will be full, dry and tasteless.

There are two ways to make dried bamboo shoots without sunlight. 1 Dry them in the shade in the drying room. Here are some ways to dry in the shade. Choose a ventilated place and let it dry naturally in the shade. If it is rainy season, it should be placed in a sealed room, with multiple fans to strengthen the fans, and it is best to add an electric brazier. You can't use things like charcoal fire, or the dried bamboo shoots will smell smoky.

Nowadays, all commercial products use dryers, and home cooking is baked with charcoal fire. It is not advisable to dry in the shade.

From my recent experience watching small videos, I can tell you that there is another equipment called food/fruit air dryer/dehydrator, which can bake fruits, scented tea, dissolved beans, bacon and so on. And pet snacks.

Hello, everyone, I am the "Happy Food Generation"!

You don't have to dry dried bamboo shoots. Put a rope on it, hang it on the beam, and burn firewood under it to dry. The food is delicious, too, with a little smoke, which is especially delicious when cooked with bacon.

I don't think it's all solved by baking.

Can only be baked with fire.
