Ever since my aunt followed my uncle back to her hometown in Shanxi, every autumn, she will send us the jujube cakes they made.
In my uncle's hometown, natural jujube trees grow everywhere on the stretching Taihang Mountain. Every autumn, rice turns yellow, and jujube also falls with the mature yellow. Even the ripe jujube is only slightly sweet when bitten on the surface, and it is truly sour if bitten again. Generally, people who don't particularly like sour taste can't eat a few.
Zizyphus jujuba is different from the dates we usually say. It is a natural wild jujube tree, also known as thorn, wild jujube and kudzu needle.
Jujube has a long flowering period, strong fragrance and rich honey, which belongs to natural honey source plants. During the flowering period every year, a large number of beekeepers gather under Taihang Mountain to brew the most fragrant and sweet jujube nectar with bees' hard honey collection.
Jujube is not only rich in jujube acid, amino acids, vitamins, calcium, iron and zinc trace elements, but also contains jujube polysaccharide and SOD-like substances. It also has the functions of invigorating spleen, promoting fluid production, promoting digestion and appetizing, and can eliminate the biological activity of free genes in vivo.
Most notably, the content of proline in skin can be significantly increased. Regular consumption of red dates can delay skin aging, regulate skin moisture, be elastic, significantly reduce skin wrinkles and delay aging. This is a good beauty food. Semen Ziziphi Spinosae also has the effects of nourishing the liver, calming the heart, calming the nerves and arresting sweating.
Li Shizhen's Compendium of Materia Medica in Ming Dynasty recorded this in detail. Soaking Ziziphus jujuba seeds in water after frying can relieve insomnia symptoms, and the curative effect is particularly remarkable, so it is called "Oriental Sleeping Fruit".
Ziziphus jujuba leaves can also be used to make Ziziphus jujuba leaves tea. A miracle was recorded in Qian Yi's new book "Songs of the South" in the Song Dynasty.
In Luoyang, there is an old monk in his 100 s. /kloc-at the age of 0/00, he was deaf and blind, and his face was ruddy. Many people come to visit us to find a way to live longer.
The old monk said: I don't know anything about health preservation, but I like to drink jujube leaf tea every day, which may be the reason for drinking this kind of tea. As soon as this statement came out, Ziziphus jujuba leaf tea was popular throughout Luoyang and even famous all over the world.
Because jujube is sour when eaten raw, the pulp of jujube is often made into jujube cakes. The production process is not complicated. First, put the washed jujube in water and cook it until the epidermis cracks, then pick it up and peel it. Then use a pair of chopsticks to stir the pulp in circles. After continuous stirring, the jujube pit will be separated from the pulp. Pick out the core, add sucrose to the snow-white pulp, spread it out and dry it, and the jujube cake is ready.
Zizyphus jujube cake is transparent in color, as beautiful as amber, sweet and sour. Eating a few sour and sweet jujube cakes makes the whole person sour and comfortable. Even in hot and cool summer, it will become extremely cool.
