Recipes with hot water
Chop the pig's feet into pieces and blanch them to remove the blood foam. Soak the soybeans in advance. Heat the oil and stir-fry the ginger slices. Add the pig's feet and stir-fry until slightly yellow. Add light soy sauce and dark soy sauce for seasoning. Add hot water to cover the ingredients. Bring to a boil over high heat and then simmer over low heat. When the pig's feet are soft and rotten, add the soybeans and continue to stew until the soybean fragrance overflows and the soup is thick. Sprinkle some chopped green onions before serving. The soft and glutinous pig's feet are wrapped in the aroma of sauce, and the soybeans absorb the gravy. It is full of satisfaction in one bite.

Sichuan and Chongqing Paoba is a local specialty in the streets and alleys. When the steamer is opened, white steam wrapped in rice fragrance fills the whole street. It is soft when eaten hot, with fine pores like a sponge full of water. The rice fragrance is mixed with a slight sourness, and the aftertaste is sweet. After cooling thoroughly, it has a firm and chewy texture, the sourness is clearer, and the sweet aftertaste is also prominent. It is just right~ Compared with the sweetness and firmness of Lunjiao cake and white sugar cake, I personally still like the sweetness and softness of Paoba~
