Chilled crayfish

There are many ways to make crayfish, and there are only two favorites: salted egg yolk and Huadiao iced. The salted egg yolk is characterized by its fragrant aroma, and it is particularly crispy with the pot. And the chilled flower carving is a perfect match for summer, who doesn't love that kind of cold food on a hot day? With the blessing of Huadiao wine, the taste is unforgettable, so delicious.

  8. The process of chilling makes the meat of the crayfish firmer, and the unique aroma of Huadiao wine gradually penetrates into the crayfish, adding a rich aroma of wine, which is indescribable, that is, whoever eats it knows

  10. Because the Huadiao juice is too delicious, I can't help but do it again, this time it is to cook 5 catties of crayfish and directly remove the shell, and put it into the sauce at one time, which is easier to taste (one reason is that the sauce is not enough, and the yellow color on the surface is the shrimp paste of the crayfish)

  11. It's more convenient to eat in this way, can you see that there are 5 catties of crayfish on a plate here? I really don't think it's too much, this kind of Huadiao iced method can't be eaten enough. This ratio of sauce must be written down, it is really amazing.
