1. How to do it

The method of bitter chrysanthemum preserved egg cold salad is as follows:

1. You need to prepare sesame oil, pepper oil, sugar, chicken essence, salt, balsamic vinegar, peanuts, preserved eggs, and radix strychnifolia. Peel the round end of the preserved egg a little, then put it in the microwave and heat it for half a minute. This will allow the egg yolk to coagulate and make it easier to cut. Peel it a little so that it will not easily explode during the heating process.

2. Wash the bitter lettuce, drain the water, and then cut it into sections. Put the cut preserved egg in the pot, then cool the pan and oil, put the peanuts in, and fry them until you hear crackling sounds and then take them out.

3. Drain the oil and add some white wine while it is hot to ensure that the peanuts are crispy. Add appropriate amount of salt after cooling down.

2. What is the scientific name of the cicada larvae? What is it called in the local dialect?

The scientific name of the cicada larvae is cicada pupa, and it is also called "cicada monkey" in the local dialect.

In addition to amino acids and proteins, cicada pupae also contain their own secondary metabolites, but these secondary metabolites are harmless to humans. If you want to eat insects, try to eat larvae, because larvae do not have more complex structures and are easier to eat. Many insects have been eaten by people for decades or even hundreds of years, and experience shows that they are harmless to humans.

Additional information:

Many people think that cicada monkeys are pests, and that they grow by sucking the sap of trees, which is harmful to trees. In fact, although cicada monkeys have a certain impact on the growth of trees, we have never heard of cicada monkeys causing the death of trees.

On the contrary, cicada monkeys are a link in nature's food chain. They are food for mantises and insectivorous birds. They originally formed a relatively harmonious food chain. If they are captured in large numbers artificially, it will destroy this balance and lead to a series of adverse chain reactions.

Most insects are rich in protein and are more nutritious than fruits and plant roots. The larvae of some insects also have a high content of amino acid protein. However, the protein needed by the human body can be supplemented through other substances. Amino acids exist in every species, but there are differences. Some are secondary metabolites. Which ones are beneficial to humans and which ones are harmful to humans are still under discussion. In fact, our ordinary diet, as long as the nutrition is balanced, can also fully supplement these amino acid proteins. In essence, there are no irreplaceable nutrients in insects.

3. How to preserve cicada monkeys?

The preservation method of cicada monkeys is relatively simple. In rural areas, people usually put them in plastic bags, add a certain amount of water, tie the bag, and put them in the freezer layer of the freezer for storage.

However, before refrigerating, you also need to process the cicada monkeys. First, rinse the cicada monkeys, wash off the sand and mud, and remove impurities. Then put the cicada monkeys in a pot and boil them with water. When the water boils, boil them for a few minutes. This is mainly to use high temperature to kill viruses in cicada monkeys.

Then take out the cicada monkey and drain the water. When the water on its surface is almost dry, sprinkle a small amount of edible salt on it and stir it evenly. This salt also has a sterilizing effect. After it is completely cooled, put it in a fresh-keeping bag, seal it, and put it in the refrigerator to freeze it. Remember to add an appropriate amount of clean water in the bag, so that it will not deteriorate if stored for several months.

Cicada monkeys are actually very durable. As long as they are handled properly, they can be stored for a year without any problems. The prerequisite is that these cicada monkeys have been kept in the refrigerator without being disconnected from the power supply, that is, the cicada monkeys have not been thawed, then they can be eaten.

No. Find unused mineral water bottles. Put them in directly. Then fill them with clean water. Screw on the lid and put it in the refrigerator. It is fine to keep it until the New Year. When eating, just cut the bottle open, thaw it and you can eat it. Don't cook it when putting it in. Just put it in alive.

I have experience in this, so I will tell you the secret. I won’t tell it to ordinary people.

1. Boil it in water and then remove it and drain the water.

2. When the water on the surface is almost dry, sprinkle some salt on the surface and mix well.

3. After it has completely cooled, put it in a fresh-keeping bag and freeze it.

4. Take them out after being frozen for a day, and use a spray bottle to spray water (boiled water) on each one 360 ​​degrees. After repeating this several times, a thin layer of ice will form on them. They can be stored like this for several months without deteriorating. You can try it.
