2. Choose fresh and full hawthorn, wash and cool to remove water, cut the hawthorn in the middle, dig the stone with a knife, and align the gaps.
3. String the pitted hawthorn with clean bamboo sticks from small to large, and string a few at will. If there are children at home, it is best to cut off the tip of the bamboo stick, which is safe.
4. The ratio of crystal sugar to water is:1:1,and put it in a pot, preferably stainless steel pot or enamel pot.
5. Boil sugar, when the gas stove is on fire, you can't stir it. When big bubbles appear, turn to medium heat, and shake the bottom of the pot with your hands while boiling, so as to avoid the phenomenon of uneven heating and paste the pot. Turn to low heat in the middle of the time, and then bite with your teeth, which means it's good to feel toothless and brittle. If it's a master, it's not necessary. The boiled sugar must leave the fire immediately.
6. Dip in sugar and prepare a clean cutting board with a thin layer of water by hand. Turn the bunched hawthorn gently against the foam on the boiled hot sugar, wrap it in a thin layer, and quickly put it on the water plate to cool for two or three minutes. You must move quickly when you touch sugar. If you slow down, the sugar will cool down and solidify. Dipping sugar requires skill. If the sugar is wrapped too thick, it will affect the taste. Sugar should be dipped in a thin and even layer.
