How to collect thick tremella syrup
1, tremella soup should be boiled thick, so be sure to pay attention to soaking. Soak tremella in warm water before cooking soup, and then cook it after it is completely soaked. When cooking, add enough water at a time, don't add water halfway. After the tremella is soaked, the cooking time is much shorter, about an hour, and it is very sticky.
2. The viscosity of tremella is directly proportional to the cooking time. The longer the cooking time, the thicker the soup. You can cook it with high fire first, and then turn to low heat and cook it slowly until the soup thickens. In addition, the tremella should be torn into small pieces, the smaller the better.
3. Another trick of cooking tremella soup is to wash tremella, remove its pedicels and steam it in a large bowl for 10 minutes. Then according to the normal method, put it into a pot and add water to boil. After an hour, be sure to boil the thick tremella soup.
4. Choose good quality tremella to cook delicious tremella soup. Never choose those white ones. Most of them are bleached, and the yellow ones are the best. After selection, soak the tremella in cold water for one night and wait for it to fully absorb water. The next day, wash it and put it in a pot, add enough water, boil it with high fire first, and then cook it with low fire for about 40 minutes. This method is simple, energy-saving and very practical.
