Youmin bamboo shoots

Every time bamboo shoots come into the market, people use various methods to make bamboo shoots, one of which is called Youmin bamboo shoots. It is said that the special dish of Xinxin Hotel in Hangzhou today, Youjiong Bamboo Shoots, is the production method of Youmin Bamboo Shoots handed down from Zhangjiadu in the early 1960 s: one is to heat the pot the night before, put in an appropriate amount of lard or vegetable oil, then put in a certain amount of blocky bamboo shoots for stir-mixing, and then add a little salt and a little water after stir-mixing. Next, bring the pot of bamboo shoots to a boil, then take pity on them, and keep a slow fire in the stove to burn slowly. In this way, you can smoke all night and take it out to eat the next morning. Later, people's lives gradually improved, and some consumers switched pig oil and vegetable oil to pork and pork bones. The other is to choose the whole bamboo shoot and wash it with water. If the bamboo shoot is too long, you can break it by hand, and don't cut it with a knife. Then, put the bamboo shoot in a pot and pour the water, add a little salt and a little water. Then, boil the water in the pot, and when it burns to a certain extent, let it burn slowly in the stove, so that it can last overnight. The next day, when the bamboo shoots were taken out, they turned brown and red. At this time, mix with the right amount of sesame oil and serve.
