Note: poem heart phrase: 1: pork can also be cut into small pieces and then blanched, because the first blanched meat is easier to cut square, so I am used to blanching before cutting. 2: When cooking chestnuts, first use a knife to scratch on the shell, so that it will naturally crack when cooking, which is more convenient for shelling. If you use a kitchen knife, first put the flat side of the chestnut on the chopping board, with the semicircular side facing up. Use the end of the kitchen knife, that is, the tip of the end you hold in your hand, and chop it down. 3: If you like to cook chestnuts badly, you can add hot water with other ingredients. 4: When making braised pork, it's better to add hot water instead of cold water. 5: Don't add too much salt.
