Steps

  1. This is the sea cucumber I bought from JD.com. I didn’t know if it was expensive when I bought it for the first time... After I opened it, there were only 8 in total. I was also surprised. It was very different from what I imagined. Each one was only a little bit small. I heard that sea cucumbers may fail to be soaked, so I only soaked two common senses for the first time... The results made me admire myself very much, and I immediately came to share with everyone! There is no process diagram, and it depends entirely on text description... If you follow my method completely, it is impossible to fail

  2. All the water used in the steps is pure water that is drunk at home. The bowl must be clean, and the sea cucumbers must not be exposed to oil during soaking. There must be no oil in the water or in the bowl! 1. Choose a larger bowl (the size of the bowl must be able to withstand three times the size of the soaked sea cucumber), put the sea cucumber in, pour in water (pour more water, not more than the sea cucumber)... put it in the refrigerator for 24-36 hours, changing the water 2-3 times in the middle... the sea cucumber should be soaked at least twice as big at this stage 2. Cut the soaked sea cucumber from the small opening in the middle, remove the white lumps at one end, and wash them (that should be the sea cucumber's teeth)

  3. Put the clear and clean sea cucumbers into the pot and cook for 40-60 minutes. If you can poke it with chopsticks, it means it is cooked. 4. Follow the first step of the boiled sea cucumbers, put them in a bowl, add water, and put them in the refrigerator for 24-36 hours... During this period, change the water twice. The soaked sea cucumbers should be able to achieve 3 times the preservation of sea cucumbers: put them in the freezer of the refrigerator, take them out and melt them before cooking and eating. Remember, you must finish it within 1 month
