Tools/materials: osmanthus, yellow rock sugar, clear water, salt, pot, scissors.
1, picking out the green stalks on osmanthus fragrans, this step can be said to be the most troublesome, and it is very patient. Pick out rotten petals and other impurities.
2. Picked fresh osmanthus, it is best to soak in salt water for 5- 10 minutes, which can play a bactericidal role. It is not recommended to wash with water too much, because the fragrance is not so rich after washing.
3, washed osmanthus, be sure to drain the water, put it in a cool and ventilated place, spread a thin layer.
4. Take a clean oil-free pan, add yellow rock sugar and appropriate amount of water, stir and cook until it melts, turn to low heat after bubbling, and cook the sugar until it is cotton-like.
5. Pour the drained osmanthus into the pot, stir until the petals are submerged, and simmer until the osmanthus is transparent. Turn off the fire and let it out, and osmanthus honey will be ready. Find a few bottles and keep them for a long time.
