usually eat oranges, we usually just peel off the skin and start eating. Today, I will share with you a different way of eating.
Steps:
1. First prepare a slightly larger basin, put the oranges in the basin, then pour a small spoonful of salt and appropriate amount of water, the water should be able to cover the oranges, and then soak for about 10 minutes. After soaking, rub the oranges with your hands and rinse them with clean water.
Oranges can be eaten directly in addition to the orange flesh, and the orange peel is also useful. Adding salt to the can clean the pesticide residues and some insect eggs and dirt on the orange peel. After eating the orange, can also take the orange peel to dry, and add a little when cooking the vegetables after drying. Greasy and fragrant. In addition, the dried orange peel has medicinal value, which can regulate qi and invigorate the spleen.
2. Put a proper amount of water in the steamer, put the cleaned oranges on the steamer neatly, then turn on a high fire to bring the water to a boil. Generally, steam for about 10 minutes after the water is boiled. Open the lid for a burst of fragrance, and at this time the orange peel becomes soft.
3. Peel off the orange peel while it is hot. The orange peel after steaming is particularly easy to peel, and then the pulp is broken into small pieces and placed in a bowl for later use.
4. Prepare 150g rock sugar and a small bowl of water about 150g. Pour water and rock sugar into the pot and stir constantly with a spatula. In the early stage, you can increase the fire slightly until the rock sugar is completely melted. When the syrup in the pot starts to bubble, change the fire to a low level, otherwise one inadvertently. The syrup is burnt.
5. When the syrup in the pot becomes very thick and you can see a little frosting, you can pour the orange pulp that has been peeled in advance, and then stir-fry a few times with a spatula to make all the oranges evenly coated with the syrup. Then turn off the fire and serve. Be gentle when you stir fry, otherwise the peeling of the orange petals may affect the appearance.
Personal thoughts: Many friends think that steaming oranges seems to be unnecessary. In fact, in the process of steaming oranges, the pulp can better absorb the nutrients from the orange peel. In addition, rock sugar is better than white granulated sugar, and the taste of rock sugar is sweeter and will not be frustrated.
