Whether it's used to mix rice, noodles, or steamed buns, it's a perfect match! (A must-have sauce for lazy people)

Master these 3 tricks and easily make cucumber sauce

① The selection of ingredients is very important!

Since we are making cucumber sauce, we must choose the cucumber as the main ingredient. However, when many people go to supermarkets (vegetable markets) to buy cucumbers, they are reluctant to buy flowered cucumbers and straight cucumbers because they have heard that "straight cucumbers and cucumbers with flowers on top are all drugged!"

Don't worry. You can eat both types of melons! Nuannuan must "redress" their grievances here. Whether they are straight cucumbers or curved cucumbers, they can grow under natural conditions. When the environment is suitable and growth is vigorous, the proportion of straight cucumbers will be high. When environmental conditions become harsh, such as lack of water, insufficient nutrients, etc., the proportion of curved cucumbers will increase. The reason why cucumbers have flowers on the top is because in order to prevent the young fruits from falling off, the growers accidentally applied anti-falling agent (p-chlorophenoxyacetic acid) on the flowers, which made the flowers difficult to fall off. Anti-falling hormone is a kind of plant hormone and will not affect human health. How to choose a good cucumber 1. It is best to choose cucumbers that are small in size, even in length and thickness, and with relatively short handles.

2. The darker the color of the cucumber, the black-green ones usually have a stronger flavor; while the lighter color cucumbers have a lighter flavor.

② 1 trick to help you stir-fry the sauce!

During the frying process, if the sauce is too moist, the sauce will not be able to wrap the ingredients perfectly. So, how can we make the sauce evenly coat the ingredients without thickening it? Chef

taught Nuannuan before that you must add water first and then remove it! A certain amount of ginger juice should be added when frying sauce . The purpose is to dilute the yellow sauce and completely spread it. During the process of frying over low heat, it can remove the beany smell and fully stimulate the aroma of the sauce.

③ This step is essential to keep the sauce longer. Before making the sauce, the ingredients such as tenderloin, fresh bamboo shoots , cucumbers, etc. must be oiled at low oil temperature until they are dehydrated, dry and fragrant. This will not only make the sauce ingredients taste better, but also allow the sauce to be stored longer.

In addition, if you want the flavor of this sauce to be more intense, warm fans must remember this cooking formula: sesame oil + sauce + green onion = perfect combination!
