How to prepare wild chives

Preparing wild chives can be a bit tricky.

First, wash the wild chives with soil on them several times under running water.

And you need to peel the skin off the root part.

Be careful not to hurt your hands at this time!

You just need to cut the prepared wild chives into bite-sized pieces.

I usually buy tofu for frying.

It has a firmer texture than tofu for stew, so it's good to grill.

Because supermarkets sell them in packs of two.

Roast one block first, and use the remaining block the next day

It's perfect to cook and eat tofu stew!

Oh no... but today I bought tofu for stew... T_T

It's okay... a slightly softer tofu

Because I can eat it... haha

After slicing the tofu, sprinkle with salt and pepper.

Seasoning with salt draws out moisture, making it a little more

You can fry it firmly~~

If you sprinkle a little starch powder, you can enjoy it even crispier.

(It's okay to omit this)

Mix 2 tablespoons of soybean oil and 2 tablespoons of perilla oil in a pan.

Usually, adding about 4 tablespoons is enough.

You can adjust it according to your preference.

If the amount of oil is too little, the nutty flavor is less, and if there is too much...

The key is to add it in moderation, as it can become too rich.

Place the tofu on a preheated pan.

Until one side is fried yellow

Patience? Just leave it as it is. Haha.

If you flip it too often, the tofu may break apart.

It's finished when it turns yellow like this.
