The bayberry is sour and sweet, with a delicate taste. The bayberry contains rich nutrients such as vitamins, sugars, minerals, protein, pectin, and amino acids. It can produce body fluids and quench thirst. . Although bayberry has high nutritional value and is delicious, the shelf life of bayberry is very short. Bayberry can be kept fresh in the refrigerator compartment, but how should bayberry be kept fresh?

1. Refrigerator

Because the shelf life of bayberry is relatively short, it is not suitable to be stored. The temperature of the cold room in the refrigerator is relatively low, which can have a certain effect on preserving bayberry. However, it should be noted that there may be some small insects in the gaps of the bayberries you buy, so you should first soak the bayberries in salt water for a period of time, then drain the water from the bayberries, seal them in a plastic bag, and then put them in the refrigerator. Freezing the bayberry into ice will also prevent the bayberry from being placed directly in the freezer, causing the bugs to be unable to be washed out of the bayberry. This will ensure healthy consumption.

2. Bayberry rock sugar

In addition to placing the bayberry directly in the cold storage compartment of the refrigerator to keep it fresh, you can also make the bayberry into bayberry rock sugar water to keep it fresh. First clean the bayberries, then soak them in salt water for about 15 minutes; then put the soaked bayberries into a pot filled with water, add an appropriate amount of rock sugar; then boil it over high heat, and then use it after the water boils. Simmer over low heat for about 10 minutes, turn off the heat, let cool, and then put it in the refrigerator to eat cold. It is also delicious.

3. Make wine from bayberries

If you really can’t finish eating the bayberries, you can also make wine from the bayberries and store them. After cleaning the fresh bayberries, let the water stains dry out naturally, then put the bayberries and white wine into a container at the ratio of 1 jin of bayberries to 4 or 5 jins of white wine, then seal it and store it for about 20 days. It should be noted that the alcohol content of the liquor used should be as high as possible, preferably above 45°. The bayberries soaked in wine can be eaten directly, and the wine can also be drank directly.
