Xe from meat - useful tips and tricks
• Increasingly, heh snacks are made from heat-treated meat. But it is not necessary to fry. Can be lightly boiled in salted water. So you can reduce oil consumption, make the dish less fatty and high in calories.
• The most delicious Korean spices are hand-picked mixes. Use separately different types of pepper, coriander, ground ginger, curry, cloves and appetizer to smell the unique aroma.
• It is better not to grind coriander, peppers and cloves in a coffee grinder. Spices are preferably crushed with a pestle in a mortar, so they are fragrant. Before putting the garlic in the dish, it is also recommended to first crush the garlic with the back of a knife, and then chop finely.
• Korean snacks are poured only with well warmed butter. Light smoke should come from it. If you need to cook onion oil, then the pieces are fried until strongly brown, you can light a little. Then onions are removed. But garlic, on the contrary, is not worth keeping the fire on for a long time, otherwise refilling will get an unpleasant smell and will taste bitter.
