🎙When 13 incense, met dried bean curd!

About this May, the little nurse followed the group and bought several seasonings, including chili powder and pepper, one of which was called 13 incense!

What is 13 incense? Is it 13 spices? Or 13 scents?

These 13 fragrances are literally 13 spices!

The ingredients may contain fragrant leaves, hawthorn, licorice, cumin, grass fruit, pepper, star anise, cumin, clove, cinnamon, cardamom, tangerine peel, ginger, etc. The Chinese herbal medicine part may also include woody, Amomum, galangal, Angelica, Sansevieria and Zikou, etc.

Maybe you will ask, there are more than 13 kinds of these materials!

Yes, some are substitutes for each other, and the flavors will vary as you like. Of course, there may also be "ancestral secret recipes" that each has its own way of developing it!

This seasoning is very, very useful. Generally, I will use it to marinate meat, not only to remove the fishy smell, but also to enhance the flavor. Just thinking about it makes my mouth water!

My mother also uses it to make meat control, but I have only heard that she uses five-spice powder, or other spice powder that she bought from the Chinese pharmacy, but the ingredients are sum, which is completely a trade secret! Others such as steamed pork, pork ribs, salted pork, chicken chops, salted chicken, etc. can all use the so-called 13 incense.

In fact, it can also be added to finished meats, such as roasts! Sprinkle it on grilled meats and it's amazing!

Four Seasons uses 13 incense to add the previously prepared braised pork to enhance the flavor of the soup. At this time, it is added with dried tofu and marinated. The taste is quite unique after the pot.

Come and try it too!
