【Name】
Dujiaogan and pig small intestines soup
【Ingredients】
Dujiaogan, pig small intestines, ginger, honey dates
【Method】
1. Soak the Dujiaogan in clean water for about 15 minutes to remove any sand or impurities. Wash the pig small intestines, remove the white fat, and then cut them into small pieces. Put the pig small intestines into cold water and boil them.
2. Rinse again with clean water and add ginger slices to a clay pot. Ginger can remove the gamey odor of the pig small intestines. Adding honey dates can make the soup sweeter.
3. Add about 4 bowls of water to the pot, bring to a boil over high heat, then reduce to low heat and simmer for 30 minutes. Add a little salt to taste.
【Usage】
If you like to eat the pig small intestines, you can add them after simmering the herbs over low heat for 30 minutes. Boil the pig small intestines for another 10 minutes. This will result in a better texture, slightly soft and elastic rather than tough. Overcooking the meat will make it harder to chew.
