廈(sha)門(men)(men)肉粽(zong)是一道美味可口的(de)(de)名(ming)點,屬于閩菜系。福建廈(sha)門(men)(men)的(de)(de)燒肉粽(zong)歷史悠久,具(ju)有(you)(you)(you)香(xiang)甜嫩滑,油(you)潤不(bu)膩,精工細作(zuo)等特點粽(zong)子在福建各(ge)地都有(you)(you)(you)不(bu)少(shao)品種(zhong),有(you)(you)(you)咸(xian)粽(zong)、豆粽(zong)、甜粽(zong)、肉粽(zong)等,獨數廈(sha)門(men)(men)肉粽(zong)有(you)(you)(you)名(ming)。廈(sha)門(men)(men)肉粽(zong)味道香(xiang)甜,油(you)潤不(bu)膩,色澤(ze)紅黃(huang)閃亮,富有(you)(you)(you)引人(ren)品嘗的(de)(de)吸(xi)引力。
燒肉粽(zong)必須有一套烹制的好功(gong)夫。有人比為“過(guo)五關:
第一、選(xuan)料要(yao)精,要(yao)有(you)香菇、蝦米、栗子、豬肉或雞肉、糯米等;
第二、精工(gong)作,炒糯米時(shi)(shi)(shi),要(yao)拌上鹵湯(tang)、蔥(cong)頭(tou)油、味精、五香(xiang)(xiang)粉、醬色糖烏等配料,要(yao)炒得干松,豬肉用(yong)紅(hong)燒或清燉,栗(li)子要(yao)生剝(bo)現用(yong)。包扎粽(zong)子時(shi)(shi)(shi),粽(zong)葉松緊度掌握好,粽(zong)角不能有(you)空(kong)隙,防(fang)止下(xia)鍋(guo)時(shi)(shi)(shi)讓香(xiang)(xiang)味漏掉,鍋(guo)里開(kai)水滾(gun)沸,生粽(zong)才能下(xia)鍋(guo),一般熬燉3小(xiao)時(shi)(shi)(shi)可熟;
第三、掌握火(huo)(huo)(huo)候,炒米用中火(huo)(huo)(huo),熬燉肉(rou)粽要(yao)旺火(huo)(huo)(huo);
第四、配好蘸料,蘸油、芫荽等,更加美味可(ke)口;
第五、燒(shao)肉(rou)(rou)粽要保持熱(re)度。廈門、閩(min)南(nan)、臺灣的方言,燒(shao)與熱(re)含義同(tong)。肉(rou)(rou)粽趁熱(re)吃才顯出醇香的滋(zi)味,吃冷(leng)的肉(rou)(rou)粽不僅(jin)味美大減,脾胃有毛病者也不好受。”
