Tips
1.In step 8, you can add more broth or water, about a scoop is about the same, but be careful if The amount of salt in the stock should be appropriately reduced, because the stock contains salt
2.Another thing to note is that as the amount of water increases, the stewing time will be longer, so there is enough time.If it is, it can be simmered for about 20-30 minutes.In fact, the longer it is simmered, the more flavorful it will be, but the key is not to burn the pot, otherwise it will be useless
3.Regarding MSG, I personally feel that it is not It must be added to every dish, but those who are not used to it can add 1/4 spoon to enhance the taste, and stir in the sauce in step 2
4.If you don’t have Zhaotong sauce at home, use Doubanjiang.Substitutions are also possible
