又平又方便的香料專門店 (Very affortable herbs and spices online store)

作者的烹飪菜式越來越國際化,最近很喜歡烹煮印度菜式,所以對香料的需求增加了不少,可是由於作者在離島居住,購買香料自然又是一大問題,最近也是到去灣仔的有名香料店買,但始終對於作者來說是很長時間及麻煩,幸好前陣子在網上找到一間由印度人開設的香港網店,不但郵寄到香港區,甚至離島也願意郵寄,所以作者先買少量作為試驗,看看服務如何。

Since I’m now cooking more wider and internationally, recently I love to cook Indian cuisine, so I really need more spices at home, unfortunately, I’m now living in an island, I have to go out to town to buy spices, it’s really long way and trouble for me that I’m not go out to urban often.  Recently, I found a HK online store that specific selling spices, it’s operate by an Indian, they are willing to post to the island directly even worldwide, so I just purchase little spices for a trial.

 

今天當作者收到郵包時,已經感覺很好,包裝很美,打開後發現分量比方間的香料店多,價格亦比舖頭的平很多,每買一次,也會附送一包不同的香料以作支持,重點是郵寄不另收費。

I just received my order today, I feel good when I got the parcel, the quantities are much more than I expected and the price are much cheaper than in normal shop, also they will free a pack of other spices for every order, and the most important point is NO POSTAGE FEE WITHIN HONG KONG AREA

 

大家可以去看看啊,真心說是不錯啊。

Here’s the online store and facebook page for reference, frankly, it’s really good at all.

Although, there so many deep fried foods in Indian, but for main cooking dishes, Indian cuisine is practically a healthy diet, because for every dishes, they are mixed with various type of spicies and herbs, it’s really good for health.

 

這道菜先要做一個其中需要的混合香料 (Garam masala),可以做多一些,那麼不用每次做,因為要十多種香料來混。此外,由於印度人每個家庭也會有自家口味,所以這個只是本人的口味,當讀者了解不同的香料後,可自行調配不同的口味吧。還有,印度人一般也沒有份量,所以請自行判斷味道。但如果讀者在相熟的香料店找到現成的也可以的。

自製醃肉及煙燻篇- 三文魚 (HOMEMADE CURING AND SMOKING – Salmon)

 

很多人都喜歡吃三文魚,在外國一般也是生的,所以他們會以鹽去醃製過,以去除細菌。有的會用煙燻,煙燻後的三文魚又是另一風味。 在這一篇,小編兩者都會分享。至於煙燻方面,小編只會分享熱燻及濕燻方法,重申一次,不要在家進行冷燻,特別是魚類,外國已有很多例子,不但致命,有孕婦甚至流產。但,如果讀者有煙燻槍的話,可以煙燻十五分鐘就可以了。

Many people like eat salmon,normally you see it is raw, but not a raw, it just cured to prevent bacteria growth.  Sometimes it will smoked after cured and also taste good.  So herewith, I will share both cured and smoked method for you.  Again, we only do hot smoke at home, there are many incidents occurred in other counties. But, if you have smoking gun, you can use it for smoking fish around 15 minutes too.

 

選擇三文魚最好是三文魚的中段,過了魚腩之後,魚尾之前,因為肉身比較厚,切起來也容易,但讀者也可以自行整條去醃製。

Practically, we better select middle portion, which is after belly and before tail, it’s the thickness part and easy to cut, of course, you can process the whole salmon as well.

 

材料 (Ingredients) :

 

三文魚 (Salmon fillet)

 

鹽 (Kosher Salt)

 

蔗糖 (Raw sugar)

 

黑胡椒 (Black pepper)

 

時蘿 (Dill)

 

紅菜頭 (beet root) [optional]

 

 

做法 (Method) :

 

1. 先量度魚肉的淨重量,準備 5%鹽、及5%糖
Measure the net weight of salmon fillet

 

2. 清洗三文魚,印乾,準備好密封袋,放入三文魚,加入鹽、蔗糖、黑胡椒粒、時蘿香草,並平均地塗上三文魚上
Wash it, dry it and prepare a vacuum bag, put the salmon, add salt, sugar, black pepper and dill, rubbed all in the salmon equally

 

3. 密封好,放入雪櫃3天,每天翻一次
vacuum seal the bag and put in the refrigerator for 3 days, flip it over every day

 

4. 取出後,放在冰水浸1小時
soak it in the water for an hour

 

5. 印乾後,如想生吃,這樣就可以切薄片了。
dry it then you can cut it into slices and enjoy it if you wanna eat raw

醃好後生吃的魚片
外國人也喜愛三文魚配藍莓醬吃

 

6. 要是存放在雪櫃,準備2張牛油紙,把切好的魚片平放在牛油紙上,把另一張放上面,然後折合四邊,再放在密實袋存放,這樣魚片就不會變乾了。
You can store it in the refrigerator as well, prepare 2 baking paper, put the salmon slices one by one and cover another baking paper over it, then flip over 4 edges and put it in the ziplock back for storage, then the salmon will still moisture itself.

 

7. 不喜歡生吃,可以選擇煙燻 (15-25分鐘) 或低溫慢煮(54度,30分鐘)也可以。
If you don’t like eat raw, you can process for smoking (15-25 minutes) or sous vide (54 degress, 30 minutes) as well.
