The maltose you make at home is particularly sweet and very delicious. There are no additives, so children can eat it with confidence. How to make it It’s very simple and you can learn it after just one look. Let’s take a look at how to make it.
Preparation of ingredients:
Wheat, warm water, yellow sweet potato
Specific methods:
1. Pour about 250g of wheat, then pour a bowl of warm water into the basin to submerge the wheat, and soak it for one night. The wheat must be this year's new wheat, otherwise it will not germinate easily.
2. After the wheat is soaked, take a steamer, place a gauze on the steamer, then pour the wheat on the gauze, spread it evenly, cover it and let the wheat germinate.
3. On the second day, you can see that the wheat has sprouted. Continue to pour water on it and continue to cover it. Keep pouring water about 2-3 times a day. This is the fourth time the wheat has sprouted. From the sky, you can see that the wheat buds are quite long. Continue to pour water on the wheat to make the wheat buds grow a little longer.
4. This is what the wheat looks like on the fifth day of germination. It has grown tender green and very beautiful. It is enough when the wheat germ grows to this level.
5. I bought a few kilograms of sweet potatoes with yellow hearts in the supermarket a few days ago. I found that the sweet potatoes are very sweet. Today I bought 15 kilograms of sweet potatoes to make maltose. I first washed the soil on these sweet potatoes. Clean, there are some pits on the surface of the sweet potato, and there is dirt inside. After washing, peel off the skin of the sweet potato. After peeling the skin, cut the sweet potato into small pieces one by one. The yellow heart sweet potato I bought, It tastes very sweet, and this kind of sweet potato has a lot of juice, which is especially suitable for making maltose.
6. After all the sweet potatoes are cut into pieces, put them into the wall breaking machine in batches, then add water and crush them. After beating, pour them directly into a larger pot, so full There is a large pot with a lot of water in it. Let's boil it on high heat for a while.
7. Then peel off the malt and put it in a basin. Then clean the malt. After cleaning the malt, put it into the wall breaking machine. Add a little less water and grind the malt into pieces. Pour the crushed wort into a basin and set aside.
8. After the sweet potatoes in the pot are boiled, continue to cook for about half an hour. When the sweet potatoes are all cooked, pour the crushed wort into the pot and continue to stir evenly. Use low heat and stir frequently with a spoon while continuing to simmer to prevent sticking to the pan. After simmering for about half an hour, turn off the heat and set aside to cool.
9. When it is dry and no longer hot to the touch, pour it into a mesh bag and filter it to filter out the juice inside.
10. Pour the filtered wort into the large pot, boil it directly on high heat, stir frequently during the cooking process, turn on high heat and simmer for a while to quickly evaporate the excess water inside. , simmer until the soup in the pot is slightly thick, then pour it into a smaller non-stick pot, cover the pot and simmer over low heat. You can smell the strong aroma of wheat during the simmering process. And the sweetness of sweet potatoes, this is the state after an hour. Be sure to stir frequently during the cooking process to prevent sticking to the bottom of the pot.
11. This is the status after two hours.
12. Keep it boiling until this state, when it is relatively viscous, I boil it for almost 3 hours, then turn off the heat and let it cool down a little.
13. Finally, pour it into a water-free and oil-free clean glass bottle. In this way, the maltose made from sweet potatoes has a sweeter and more delicious taste than the maltose made from glutinous rice. It has a rich wheat flavor and is stored in a cool place. Can be stored in a dry place for more than one year.
14. When eating maltose, use chopsticks or bamboo sticks, so that the maltose is wrapped around one end of the chopsticks and you can eat it. This kind of handmade maltose without any additives can make children feel at ease. Eat it, and it also has many functions such as nourishing the spleen and replenishing qi, moistening the lungs and relieving coughs. It is the fun of childhood and the taste of childhood.
