First, horseshoe powder
First of all, horseshoe powder, also called snot powder, is made directly from deep horseshoe, rich in vitamin B, vitamin C and plant protein phospholipids, and has the effect of clearing away heat, drying dampness and detoxifying. It is the bulb of water chestnut, a root plant of Sarcandra glabra. Horseshoe powder grown in the southeast of China contains a lot of starch, oligosaccharides and monosaccharides account for more than 86% of the dry weight, and starch 18.8%, protein 2.3%, vitamin B 1b2c, mineral calcium coagulation and other elements, so there are many trace elements in horseshoe powder.
Second, the material of horseshoe powder
At present, the main materials for making horseshoe powder are horseshoe cakes, such as 500 grams of horseshoe powder, 750 grams of sugar and 3300 grams of water. Of course, there is no need to use so much water chestnut powder. It is possible to eat less or more. If you want to make horseshoe paste, you must also have horseshoe powder and sugar, and add a little water to make horseshoe lake. The effect will be very good.
Third, the production of horseshoe powder
However, the production of water chestnut powder is first in water chestnut cake. The production of water chestnut cake needs to take clear water, mix water chestnut powder into slurry, then take clear water, boil white sugar into syrup while it is hot, and stir until there is no powder. Then, make a half-cooked West Lake, pour the lake water into a basin, put it in a boiling water pot and cook it for 15 minutes until it is cooked, but it can be cut into pieces after cooling. Of course, this is water chestnut cake, if it is to make horseshoes.
