Steps
1. Put the pork skin into the pot and cook for 8-10 minutes. Take it out.
2. Spread the cooked pork skin flatly on the cutting board, with the fat side on the inside facing up, and scrape off the fat repeatedly with a knife. If you want the skin to be fresh and not greasy, this is a key step. You must carefully scrape off the grease.
3. It has to be scraped like this, with no grease at allNo
4. After scraping away the fat on the inner layer of the meat skin, it is time to check whether there are pig hairs on the outer layer of the meat skin. You can't miss a single pig hair by touching it with your eyes. When you find it, use tweezers to pull it out.
5. Then cut the skin into strips.
6. Wash the cut meat strips several times. Don’t be lazy in this step until the water used to wash the meat skin is so clear.
7. Add water to the pot, add the pork skin and bring to a boil. There will be a little foam on top, which needs to be skimmed off with a spoon.
8. Then rinse the peppercorns, star anise, cinnamon, and bay leaves, put them into the bag, and put them into the pot together with the green onions and ginger slices.
9. Add light soy sauce, dark soy sauce, cooking wine and salt into the pot. The amount of salt is added according to personal taste.
10. When the meat is cooked until the skin is tender and the soup is reduced and thickened, turn off the heat and set aside to cool. The thicker the soup, the better the shape of the jelly will be, and the more elastic the texture will be.
11. While the pork skin soup is cooling, put the whole tofu skin into the pot and cook for two minutes. Be careful not to overcook it.
12. Cut the tofu skin into appropriate size according to the size of your crisper. Spread it into the crisper as shown in the picture. In this way, the prepared skin jelly will have bean skins all around, or you can just put one piece on the bottom and one on top.
13. Then take out the ingredients package, onion and ginger from the pork skin soup, and put the pork skin soup into a crisper.
14.; After the pork skin soup cools, the soup will become thicker and thicker. At this time, fold the bean skin on top to cover it. In order to take pictures, I covered it a little early, and the soup was a little overflowing. Cover and refrigerate to set completely. Note
