In the processing method of three steaming and three drying, the preparation of preserved vegetable generally includes: preparing materials: selecting fresh mustard, washing and drying to ensure moderate moisture, and not too dry. First steaming: steaming the mustard in a steamer for 20 minutes, taking it out after steaming, and slightly cooling. First drying: drying the steamed mustard under the sun, usually for 2 days, until the leaves become soft. Second steaming: steaming the dried mustard again in a steamer for 20 minutes. Second drying: drying the steamed mustard again to ensure complete evaporation of moisture. Third steaming: repeating the steaming step, steaming for 20 minutes for the last time. Third drying: finally drying the mustard to ensure complete dryness before storage. The preserved vegetable made by this three steaming and three drying method has a unique flavor and is suitable for stewing meat in winter.
