Ji'nan dyed pepper made a pot
Zilu
pepper boiled meat, a pot of red "blood water" was boiled.
Qilu network October 11th, according to the Beijing radio and television public channel "the truth force" reported, pepper as a necessary condiment in life, many people in the cooking time like to put a little, both taste and delicious. But recently, Mr. Wang in Ji'nan was disgusted by this pepper. Not only did he not taste it, but he also spoiled a good pot of meat. What's the matter?
sham pepper boiled broth has changed into "blood water" into the mysterious seed
the prickly ash of Mr. Wang stew is bought at the farmer's market not far away a month ago. At first glance, there is nothing wrong with it, the red and red shell, and the special taste of Zanthoxylum bungeanum. But I didn't expect it to be cooked not only a delicacy, but also almost lost its teeth.
Mr. Wang said that when he stewed chicken, he found that the color of the meat became more and more red. But I never thought that after the stewed meat cooked, it would still play its teeth. At that time, he realized that the chief culprit of all these should be Zanthoxylum bungeanum. After careful examination of the remaining dried Zanthoxylum bungeanum, Mr. Wang discovered the clue.
originally, there were many round spherical particles in these Zanthoxylum bungeanum. The same red coat and the same rough epidermis can not be seen without careful resolution. However, the real pepper shell is easy to crumble, and this "Li Gui" is solid, and quite hard, and how to knead it is not broken.
the more he wants the wrong, the pepper is bought from the roadside peddlers, 5 dollars to buy 3 two, count less than 20 yuan a Jin, where there are such cheap pepper?
reporters secretly visit condiment market, merchants say they dare not sell fake
, so what is this seemingly prickly ash thing? With the same doubt, the reporter immediately launched an investigation. In order to find out, the reporter first visited several condiment markets in Ji'nan.
reporters found that the price of prickly ash in the market is mostly from 3 yuan to 5 yuan or more. Even last year, Chen Zanthoxylum would be more than two yuan or two. Although the quality is different, they are all genuine prickly ash. The reporter asked Mr. Wang about the kind of pepper that he had bought, but he got the answer. "Who dares to sell that, people have caught a fine, tens of thousands of".
the reporter's visit to several seasoning stalls, and did not find the cheap mixed pepper of Mr. Wang's house. From this, pepper is not ubiquitous in the condiment retail market. Then the reporter came to a large dry goods wholesale market. I didn't expect reporters to really broaden their horizons.
dry goods wholesale market long prickly ash price is two times more than
in this shop specializing in the wholesale seasoning, placed six or seven large sacks full of pepper. The price of pepper in each sack is very big. The most expensive more than 30 yuan a Jin, and the cheapest one catty is only 12 yuan.
the young shopkeeper told the reporter that the cheap pepper grain was added to the "roast pepper", which was also the pepper itself, but the taste was very bad. And it also contains a lot of pepper seeds and pepper sticks, so the price is cheap. But there are cheaper ones here than 12 yuan a kilogram.
the shopkeeper confessed that the cheapest was adulterated, with a grass seed in it. The grass seed was mixed with pepper, and the reporter was the first to hear about it. And when the owner of the store is hidden in the "grass seed" in the pepper, the reporter finds out that the inside of Wang's home pepper is the "grass seed".
but the color of grass seeds is mostly yellow, black and brown. How can there be grass seeds that are so similar to Chinese prickly ash? What are the differences between this adulterated Chinese prickly ash and true pepper?
low prickly ash was added to the grass seed last year to find out the poison pepper case
the later reporter bought two kinds of prickly ash per Jin and 25 yuan per Jin and soaked them into the water respectively. After comparison, the reporter found that the pure Zanthoxylum into the water, the color of the water is light brown, and the green pepper with grass seed into the water less than two minutes, the water will be dyed red. If the grass seeds are kneaded in white paper, white paper will also be dyed red. It can be seen that this grass seed is likely to be dyed.
as early as in April last year, Beijing, Chongqing and other areas of the police have detected the case of pepper dye, and those illegal traders used to dye the pepper is the carcinogen "Luo Danming B".
who in the end is who is adulteration in the pepper? Under the guidance of a shopkeeper in the dry goods wholesale market, the reporter came to one of the main areas of the Zanthoxylum pepper, one of the main areas of the Zaozhuang city.

a prickly ash dealer told reporters that the green pepper mixed with grass seed is from Hancheng, Shaanxi, "foreign goods", and the local pepper smugglers mostly smashed pepper leaves and pepper leaves into the pepper. So when local farmers harvest pepper, pepper and pepper will be stored separately. This seemingly worthless pepper rod can also sell for about one yuan a pound, and its only use is weighing.
how many methods are there for adulteration of prickly ash? Another industry insider who had adulterated pepper regularly gave reporters a lesson. He said that some could mix dried sweet potato noodles, and then add crushed pine nuts.
is the surface of the sweet potato and the pine nut shell. In order to calculate more money from a jin of Zanthoxylum, the prickly prickly prickly traffickers can be said to have been racking their brains and painstaking.
grass seed, pine nut shell and dyeing agent. Surprisingly, a small pepper was actually investigated by our reporter so many fake methods. Although the method of prickly ash adulteration varies, but as long as you refreshment is still very easy to distinguish. True pepper tastes spicy and pungent. The taste of fake prickly ash is much worse. And you can also find problems by crushing the Chinese prickly ash with your hands or using water. So when you buy prickly ash, you must polish your eyes and avoid being fooled.
