pomelo peel candy is a kind of delicious food, with pomelo peel as the main ingredient and lemon, water, rock sugar and salt as the auxiliary materials. The preparation process is simple, and it has the effects of resolving phlegm, moistening throat, relieving cough, invigorating spleen, clearing away fire, regulating qi, reducing blood fat and so on.

production method:

1. Rub the surface of grapefruit skin with salt, and the skin on the surface of grapefruit skin will be damaged.

2. Clean it with clear water (some pomelos are waxed, so this step is to remove them), and cut the cleaned pomelo peel into large pieces.

3. Then slice off the white pulp that is too thick inside.

4. Leave a little white pulp. Although white pulp is bitter, it is also the essence of removing fire. Change the knife into small pieces.

5. Soak in clear water (soaking for one day is the best). At last, the color of water turns yellow, and the bitter taste of grapefruit peel is reduced. Boil a pot of water and add a spoonful of salt to the water.

6. put the soaked grapefruit skin in the pot and cook for a while until the grapefruit skin becomes transparent and then turn off the fire. at this time, the water in the steamer is yellow.

7. Take out the grapefruit peel and rinse it in cold water.

8. After taking out, dry the grapefruit peel by hand (at this time, taste it, the grapefruit peel has basically no bitter taste, and it tastes very fragrant)

9.14 grams of dried grapefruit peel, and I used 9 grams of rock sugar, which is already very sweet. Those who don't like sugar can control the ratio of grapefruit peel to sugar at 2:1.

1. put half a bowl of boiling water in the pot, add crystal sugar, squeeze in a little lemon juice, boil the crystal sugar until it melts, put the grapefruit peel in, and stir-fry slowly over low heat.

11. Turn off the fire until the grapefruit peel absorbs all the sugar liquid and there is no liquid in the pot.

12. The finished semi-finished pomelo peel candy can be dried by air drying in a heated room for one day (if you don't want to wait, you can bake it in an oven at about 1 degrees, or microwave it in a microwave oven to dry it), but natural air drying is the most environmentally friendly.

Precautions:

1. Wash the surface of grapefruit skin with salt to remove wax or pesticides from illegal traders, and also remove some bitterness of grapefruit skin;

2. The pomelo peel candy is made of the outermost skin of pomelo and a part of white bitter pulp, which has a good taste and a good effect of removing fire.

3. The trilogy of removing bitterness from grapefruit peel: cleaning-soaking-blanching;

4. The ratio of dried grapefruit peel to sugar is about 2:1. If I add more sugar, the grapefruit peel sugar is very sweet and delicious.

5. The finished grapefruit peel is naturally air-dried, or it can be sealed and stored in an oven or microwave as long as it is stiff, but it will naturally regain its moisture during the process, which is a normal phenomenon, and it will be softer and more delicious after the moisture regain;

6. Lemon can be added or not (adding less will not affect the taste, citric acid has antiseptic effect), but it is better to eat it as soon as possible because there is no preservative.
