The smoke and fire in the human world are the most soothing to the hearts of ordinary people. Firewood, rice, oil, and salt are the most ordinary, simple yet can warm the tired body. Three meals a day and four seasons, food carrying the smoke and fire is the most soothing! Hello everyone, I am Xiaofeng.

This morning at work, I saw my neighbor's usually good-tempered colleague sulking. Upon inquiry, she found out how many chili peppers she had planted in a flowerpot downstairs. A few days ago, she was very happy to see that they were full of small chili peppers and even took photos to show off to us. Unexpectedly, when I wanted to go downstairs this morning to pick and cook food, I found out that there were none left. I don't know which annoying neighbor gave me a try first, which made my colleague so angry that he didn't even have a good breakfast. Even now, my anger has not subsided.

After listening to my colleague's story, I couldn't help but cry and laugh. Just as I was about to comfort myself, another colleague next to me said, 'Don't get angry!'! Isn't there still chili leaves left after losing the chili peppers? Pepper leaves are more expensive and delicious than chili peppers! I thought this colleague was joking, but I didn't expect her to solemnly tell us about the various delicious methods of chili peppers. She also said that she often cooks and eats them, and listening to what she said made my mouth water. The colleague who threw chili peppers also felt better, saying that she would stir fry chili peppers at home at noon.

Pepper leaves are a plant that can be used for both medicine and food. They are rich in protein, dietary fiber, carotenoids, vitamin C, as well as trace elements such as calcium, iron, copper, and zinc. They contain more nutrients than chili peppers, especially calcium, which is particularly high, with a calcium content of 233 milligrams per hundred grams. They are a natural calcium supplement. Unexpectedly, the inconspicuous chili leaves can still be eaten. Below, I will organize and share with everyone the delicious methods of chili leaves shared by my colleagues. Friends who like them can refer to:

Fried Shredded Pork with Chili Pepper Leaves:

1. First, cut a piece of pork into shreds, then add cooking wine, oyster sauce, soy sauce, and pepper. Stir well and marinate for 15 minutes for later use.

2. Wash the chili peppers thoroughly, then boil a pot of water. Heat the chili peppers in boiling water for about 30 seconds, then remove them and cool them in cold water. Squeeze any excess water, shake it loose, and place it on a plate for later use.

3. Add oil to the pot, heat up the oil and add marinated pork shreds to taste. Continuously stir fry with a shovel until the shreds change color, then add garlic slices to stir fry until fragrant. Then add chili leaves and continue to stir fry. Stir well, then add a spoonful of salt, a spoonful of sugar, and an appropriate amount of soy sauce. After further stirring for a while, turn off the heat and take out of the pot.

Pickled chili leaves:

1. Rinse the chili peppers and chili leaves in an appropriate amount, then blanch them in pre boiled water. First, blanch the chili peppers for 30 seconds, then blanch the chili leaves for another 30 seconds. Then, remove the cold water and completely control the water content before placing them in a basin.

2. Then add an appropriate amount of salt, pepper oil, and soy sauce, stir well, and put them into a glass bottle without water or oil. After sealing them, they can be refrigerated and stored in the refrigerator. Generally, they can be eaten after 24 hours of pickling, and they are easy to eat.

Pepper leaves, whether fried or pickled, are particularly fragrant and more delicious than chili peppers! Knowing the delicious way to eat chili peppers, don't throw them away as chili peppers in the future. In addition, we can also take advantage of the fact that chili peppers are on the market in large quantities and at the cheapest time, buy more, blanch them at home, and freeze them in the refrigerator. When we eat them, we can take out a ball and cook it at will, making it fragrant and delicious!
