  4. Blanch the baby greens. It is said that putting a little alkali in the water can make the vegetables very green. Usually, the water is boiled, and then the vegetables are put in. As soon as the vegetables change color, they are taken out and poured into cold water. It is said that the sudden cooling can keep the green color of the vegetables.

  5. Chop the green vegetables, add salt, sesame oil, and a little sugar and mix well. It is said that Yangzhou's Jade Shaomai requires ham. The ham is not cooked at home, so ham sausage is used instead.

  11. The steamed siomai is green in color and the fillings are fragrant. Because the filling is vegetables, the steaming time does not need to be too long. If the steaming time is too long, the noodles with vegetable juice will turn yellow and lose their green color due to the temperature. This is the result of the high temperature of the chlorophyll, so don't worry.
