It's cold in winter, and everyone likes to cook stew. When cooking stew, vermicelli is essential, especially when stewed with pork. Q elastic and tender, more fragrant than meat.
The production process of vermicelli is complex, and the process varies from place to place, so there are many colors of vermicelli, such as gray, yellow or tan. The best vermicelli is sweet potato vermicelli, which can be eaten in a variety of ways, such as cold salad, stir-frying, soup-making, hot pot-washing, and whatever you eat, it is delicious.
With the increasing demand for fans, there are some fake sweet potato fans on the market, which taste much worse. Pay attention when buying.
How to distinguish the true and false sweet potato vermicelli? Many people don't buy vermicelli. Let's share with you the skills of picking vermicelli. An aunt in my hometown fan workshop told me that you can tell the truth of sweet potato fans by looking at these four points. Learn from me.
Skills of choosing fans
1, color
There are two shapes of vermicelli on the market, one is a strip and the other is a ring. No matter what shape, just look at the color. Sweet potato vermicelli has two colors, gray and yellow are sweet potato vermicelli, but it should be noted that the purer the color, there is no impurity, and it may be fake.
Sweet potato vermicelli will have some impurities more or less, and it can't be so pure, so vermicelli with different shades will be fine.
2. Toughness
Vermicelli is dry goods, which can be judged by its toughness. If other things (such as edible gum) are added, it has strong toughness and is not easy to break. If the vermicelli is broken with a light break, it means that it is really sweet potato powder made of starch.
If the vermicelli can't break after bending for many times, it must be glued and it is a fake sweet potato vermicelli.
Step 3 taste
Sweet potato vermicelli is made of starch in sweet potato. If it is really vermicelli, it will definitely have a faint sweet potato starch flavor. If there is no smell, it is probably fake vermicelli. If there is pungent smell, sour taste, fishy smell and other odors, this vermicelli is either fake or broken, so don't buy it.
Step 4 burn it
All the vermicelli sold outside are loaded. The boss usually burns it to prove that his vermicelli is good. Burn vermicelli. If you can smell burning, and twist the ashes with your hands very delicately, without any particles, it means it is true.
If it is a fake vermicelli with other substances added, it will have a pungent smell or unpleasant smell after burning, and there are many small particles in the ash. This is because gelatin can't burn completely, while sweet potato starch can burn completely.
Through these four aspects, we can quickly judge the authenticity of fans. Fake vermicelli not only tastes bad, but also has no nutrition. Eating it is not good for your health. Stay away from fake vermicelli when buying it.
