Warm reminder;

1, valuables should be carefully prepared, tweezers sieve spoon is essential, and utensils should be clean and oil-free.

2. There are very few hairs in a good bird's nest, but the stars should be picked as clean as possible. The best time to pluck hair should be when the bird's nest is thoroughly developed, but it should not be too soft. Picking hair requires eyesight, so you can operate patiently in bright light, and it is advisable to operate in a light-colored clean plate, so that you can clearly see the deeper parts of the bird's nest.

3. The above method is warm water swelling, which can make the bird's nest swell to about 15 times the weight of the original dry goods, that is, 10 gram of bird's nest can swell to 13- 16 gram. Putting 1 g edible alkaline noodles in warm water during baking can make the bird's nest swell to about 18-20 times that of dry food, which is equivalent to the number of dishes in an eight-inch plate. However, the alkaline baking method is not recommended, because alkali will destroy the nutritional components of bird's nest, and the taste is not good. If alkali is used, it will need to be washed and scalded repeatedly, which will also lead to loss of raw materials and waste.

4, try not to use metal utensils to make, metal will make some changes in the nutritional composition of bird's nest, some substances will have the opposite effect, or use a saucepan with a cover to make it by steaming.
