1, Gleditsia sinensis can be soaked in hot water, but it will lose some nutrients, especially vitamin C, which will make the taste of Gleditsia sinensis slightly worse. Soaking Gleditsia sinensis in cold water is different. Soaking Gleditsia sinensis in cold water will fully retain its nutrients and taste better. Of course, if you are in a hurry to eat, I suggest you change the cold water into warm water, which will also save you a lot of time.

2. Different varieties of Gleditsia sinensis have different soaking time. For example, the soaking time of Gleditsia sinensis is longer, usually it can be completely soaked in four or five hours, and the soaked Gleditsia sinensis is five or six times that of the original. It usually takes two or three hours for a single pod of Gleditsia sinensis to be fully soaked, which will be seven or eight times the original.
