Introduction: Pork intestines generally refer to the intestines of a pig, which are the visceral organs. Intestines play a role in transporting and digesting food, which gives them their chewy texture. As a versatile ingredient, pork intestines can be cooked in various ways such as stir-frying, frying, braising, and stewing. Pork intestines have relatively high nutritional value. They are rich in protein, fat, minerals, and vitamins. It is important to note that pork intestines have a strong smell and require thorough cleaning before cooking: firstly, use starch to remove the mucous membrane from the intestines, repeating this process multiple times if necessary; then sprinkle salt on them, rub them several times, and rinse with clean water; if the smell is still unpleasant, repeat the above steps. If poorly processed, pork intestines can be sticky and difficult to handle. Avoid buying them as they may have an unusual odor and lack freshness.
