Chapter 59 Section 59 Cutting method of pepper

Peppers have some cutting skills that can be paid attention to. The process of cutting peppers is when we choose the function of peppers and follow the plant physiological laws of peppers to determine the knife method. Cutting peppers cannot avoid some practical problems. I believe that there are many people who eat chili peppers. If you don’t hold the spoon yourself, it seems difficult to remember the shape of chili peppers, but only remember the taste of chili peppers.This is very interesting, such as potatoes, lotus root slices, radishes... for this type of dishes, their shape is very important, and the shape of what kind of dishes are cut is extremely particular. For example, shredded potatoes, you just eat shredded potatoes.Chili is not the case, no matter what shape it is cut, as long as it is spicy, eaters will still remember its taste rather than its shape for a long time.Excuse me, what shape is spicy?Round or flat?

The basic knife method for cutting peppers is almost straight cutting and oblique cutting. The straight cutting is to cut the chili slices and shreds along the length of the pepper. The oblique cutting is mostly irregular chili flakes. On the one hand, it seems to be very common. This kind of mentality stems from the dry energy in midsummer. If it is cold winter, there is a desire to cut vegetables into pieces.Peeling eggplants and cutting peppers is a classic summer knife method in Hubei Province.Because peeling eggplants, you can sit on a small bench under the shade of a tree at the door, chat with the neighbors while peeling, pick up the scissors after peeling, and cut the peppers with the handle of the chili pepper, and just remove the core.There is a kind of sun-dried pepper, which is also cut in the same way. After the skin is cut, the pepper seeds are placed in a plate and dried separately.

When cutting bell peppers, people prefer to cut them into cubes. This cutting method may be because bell peppers are not spicy. Non-spicy peppers are cut very large, and very spicy peppers are cut very small. This is a rule.There are sliced ​​and shredded bell peppers and ox horn peppers. I personally like shredded, because no matter what kind of dish, put red pepper shreds and green chili shreds, it looks very wonderful, like bursting small pumpkin shreds, The shredded pumpkin is golden yellow, with shredded green chili and red chili, it looks so comforting.So is mashed potatoes, golden mashed potatoes, red and green, it's not just formalism, I think there's an aesthetic instinct in it.

Generally speaking, cross-cut peppers are limited to dry red peppers, and cutting them into small circles is also a convenient and convenient way.Among fresh peppers, no matter green or red, it is rare to see people cut them crosswise, but sometimes cutting peppers crosswise can have unexpected effects.For example, there is a kind of croissant pepper, which is only as thick as the middle finger. It is light green and very fresh when it is on the market. This kind of pepper is cut across, and it is the size of a ring. When cooking fish, it needs to be thickened. Put these Green chili rings, sprinkled with red carrot shreds, spread a thin layer of fish on top of the fish. It looks like under the amber transparent juice, each green pepper ring is like a green sun, and the carrot shreds are its golden light.Therefore, sometimes bringing forth the new through the old will have unexpected effects.

When cutting dried red peppers, I thought it would be better to rinse them with water first, let them return to some dampness, and then shred them. Fits the identity of a gourmet.Thinly shredded red pepper is very beautiful in appearance, and it also reflects the hotness of the chili thread. People in Hubei Province also like to stuff the stalks of peppers into the peppers and then pull them out. This can remove the stalks, ventricles, isolation tendons and seeds of the peppers, which are the hottest parts of the peppers, and then wash them again. Cut into shreds or slices, this kind of chili is not spicy. Personally, I think this is not the behavior of eating chili. If you are afraid of spicy food, why should you eat it?
