Tip: Cold-mixed three-silk is a very common dish, and the making steps are much easier than hot dishes, but there are still two points to pay attention to. First, carrots are fat-soluble, that is, they are only soluble in oil, so don't forget to drop a few drops of sesame oil at the end when cooking this dish. And don't soak the scalded shredded carrots in water for too long, just a minute or two. The second point is that the shredded potatoes should be washed with water as much as possible before blanching, and the soaking time in water should be prolonged. Because only after washing away the starch in potatoes will shredded potatoes taste lighter and more refreshing.
