We would like to recommend to you our method for making sea cucumber hair. The first step of how to make sea cucumber hair grow: Soak it in cold water. Take a few dried sea cucumbers and soak them in tap water for 24-48 hours. The soaking time should be enough to soften them and cut them with scissors. In the meantime, pay attention to changing the water every 12 hours or so.
In summer, it is recommended to put it in the refrigerator to keep it fresh for foaming. Then use scissors to cut from the tail to the mouth, and remove the white limestone (sea cucumber teeth) on the head, clean it and set aside.
Step 2: Cook over slow heat. At home, you can use an aluminum pot with less water, fill it 3/4 with tap water, put the cleaned sea cucumbers in it
, bring to a boil and simmer for 30-40 minutes (40 heads for 40-60 minutes), then turn off the heat , simmer naturally for 4-6 hours (you can use an aluminum pot to keep it warm in winter). The water in the pot is rich in nutrients, edible and highly tonic.
Step 3: Soak in ice water. Put the sea cucumber into a container filled with purified water (or distilled water), put it in the refrigerator to keep it fresh (put the purified water ice cubes prepared in advance in the water, the ice-water mixture is 0℃), and soak 24-48 hours (change the water once in between).
The sea cucumber that has gone through the above three steps can be processed and eaten directly. If there are uneaten sea cucumbers, they will gradually shrink if you continue to soak them. You can put the sea cucumbers in a plastic bag and freeze them for 10 hours, and then just take them out and defrost them.
