Steamed pork ribs with bream and broad pepper
Guangjiao, also known as Guangjiao. It is a specialty food in southeastern Chongqing, northeastern Guizhou, Yichang and Enshi in Hubei and Changde in Hunan. It is made by mincing fresh paprika (red pepper), then mixing it with ground cornmeal, putting it into a jar and pressing it tightly layer by layer, placing a layer of tung leaves or straw on the surface, sealing the mouth of the jar, and pouring the jar into a basin of salt water. After a month, it will become this red, fragrant and spicy paprika pepper. There are many recipes for Guanggujiao. In addition to steaming and stir-frying alone, it can also be paired with garlic sprouts, bacon, fatty sausage and other ingredients. One of the special ones worth mentioning is the steamed pork with pressed Guangzhou pepper, which is definitely not inferior to the steamed pork with rice flour. The unique sour and spicy taste of bream and chilli can reduce the greasiness of the meat, which is something that cannot be done with pickled vegetables or steamed rice noodles.

Steamed pork with bream and broad pepper
The lady who buys pickles at the gate of the community has a new variety, Guangjiao. I have always wanted to do this, but I have never made it. I am always worried that what I make is not authentic. After all, this is not a specialty here. I just listened to an aunt talking about it, but I have never made it. Now it’s okay, the eldest sister has started selling it, so let’s just buy it and eat it! Information from the Internet: Guangguangjiao, also known as Guangjiao, is made from Enshi's local fresh red pepper and cornmeal (cornmeal) as the main raw materials. The specific preparation is: remove the stems of the fresh red peppers, wash them, drain the water, chop them into fine pieces with a guillotine, add salt and mix well, then add the corn noodles and mix well (some also add seasonings such as peppercorns and orange peels). Pour it into a clean jar, cover it with vegetable leaves, then fasten it with bamboo slices, then place it upside down in a basin and add water (called ascites). The advantage of using a jar is that the mouth of the jar is pressed down by gravity, the sealing effect is good, and water absorption is high, which provides guarantee for anaerobic fermentation and makes the finished product taste more mellow and fragrant. To make a small amount of peppercorns, you can also use a water-filled jar with a rim that can be used to drain water. Put it upright, put water in the inner groove along the edge, and close the lid. However, the peppercorns made in this kind of jar cannot be stored for too long, because the air pressure in the jar may push the lid open and let in the air, or it may absorb too much water and become dilute and lose the smell. The mixed bream and peppers are placed in a jar and allowed to ferment fully. They can be taken out and cooked after about 3 weeks. It is usually roasted in a pot and then stir-fried with Tujia bacon or steamed as the base of a bowl. The finished product is reddish in color and has a very special sour and spicy taste. You can also use bream and broad pepper to make steamed meat, braised meat base, and side ingredients. The steamed meat produced in this way is not greasy, refreshing, and easy to digest and absorb. It is even used with corn flour to make corn paste and is called Guangjiao Paste. When choosing chili peppers, it is best to use chili peppers produced after the Lunar White Dew, so that the taste will be good, otherwise it will be too sour. It is best to use Enshi’s Xiaozihuang Baogu noodles for Baogu noodles. In addition to using corn flour, there are also a few that use glutinous rice flour. After putting the Guangjiao pepper into the jar, be sure to ensure that there is water in the basin. If it is well sealed, it can be stored for several years without deterioration. Nowadays, the production of Guangjiao pepper is no longer limited to households. There are specialized food companies producing it. It uses modern technology and vacuum packaging to facilitate transportation. People all over the world can enjoy it. First I thought of steaming the meat. Surprisingly delicious, really.
