Some people also want to pickle them themselves after eating them, but they don’t know how to do it. Today, the editor will share its pickling method with everyone.

How to pickle Jiangxi grapefruit peel

1. When pickling Jiangxi pomelo peel, you need to prepare a fresh pomelo, a few slices of garlic, two scallions and appropriate amount of table salt. In addition, you also need to prepare appropriate amounts of fermented black beans, chili peppers and soy sauce.

2. Wash the prepared grapefruit with clean water, remove the skin, cut it into thin slices, and then soak the sliced ​​grapefruit slices in clean water for a few minutes. After soaking, take them out and squeeze them hard with your hands to squeeze out the water inside and then change the water to soak. Change the water 3 to 4 times, and then let it soak in clean water for 24 hours. This can remove the bitterness of the grapefruit peel.

3. Take out the soaked grapefruit peel and drain the water. Then put clean water in a pot and bring it to a boil. Then put the grapefruit peel in and blanch it for one minute. Take it out and cool it in cold water. Then squeeze out the water. Then cut the prepared ginger and chili into thin strips or small cubes. Put a proper amount of cooking oil in a wok and heat it. Then add ginger, garlic and chili and quickly stir-fry until fragrant.

4. Put the processed pomelo peel into the pot and stir-fry quickly. The water in the pot will be absorbed by the pomelo peel. Continue to stir-fry over medium-low heat for 2 to 3 minutes, then add the prepared black beans, stir-fry again, turn off the heat and serve directly. Put it on a plate and sprinkle with appropriate amount of chopped green onions. The authentic Jiangxi-style pomelo peel is now marinated and ready to eat.

5. The pickling method of Jiangxi pomelo peel is not fixed. You can adjust the pickling materials according to your needs. If you want to keep it simple, you can blanch the pomelo peel in boiling water, take it out after blanching, add mashed garlic, ginger, appropriate amount of salt, and a small amount of light soy sauce, mix well and then pickle it. However, the Jiangxi pomelo peel pickled in this way tastes slightly astringent and is not as fragrant as the pomelo peel pickled by the first method.
