Preparation method of lotus root starch:
Ingredients: peeled lotus root 500g, water 500-800g?
1, two lotus roots, one catty of lotus roots in 9 yuan, bought two lotus roots at 1 1 yuan. Generally, red lotus root is selected, and the starch content is higher than that of white lotus root. If the lotus root is short, thick and small in color, the flour yield will reach 10%.
2500 grams after peeling.
3. Wipe the silk or cut it into small pieces.
4. Put it into a cooking machine and add 500 grams of water.
5. Stir until it is very delicate.
6. Screen or use double gauze to separate slag, preferably double gauze to separate slag. If there is no double gauze, use a sieve of 40 to 60 meshes, and some people use a sieve of 20 meshes, but the finished product of 20 meshes should be rough.
7. After filtering out the lotus root residue, you will get a big bowl of water. Let this bowl of water settle for 3 to 4 hours, and the first stage of work will be completed.
8. Let's talk about the lotus root residue separated from gauze or sieve. In order not to waste, add water and stir with the cooking machine 10- 15 seconds.
9. Filter the water with gauze or sieve, and the filtered water will precipitate for 3 to 4 hours. Even if the first stage of work is completed, it will take three to four hours. In fact, standing for 12- 15 hours will produce a little more powder, but it should be frozen in the refrigerator, otherwise it will break if it is too hot in summer.
10, don't look at this second time, it will also sink powder. After two operations, we always have to get two bowls of water and put the residue in gauze or sieve. I will teach you how to use the lotus root residue in gauze or sieve later.
1 1, 4 hours later, pick up the bowl of sediment and pour out the water on the surface.
12, there is a layer of white sediment at the bottom, which is not easy to push.
13, the oven is fired up and down at 70 degrees, and the hot air is circulated for half an hour.
14, then put the powder on a plate or directly on a baking tray with silicone oil paper, and continue baking at low temperature until the fermentation temperature (35 to 38 degrees) is dry.
15. If you think air-drying or air-drying is the most authentic, you don't need an oven, just spread it out and air-dry.
