Appropriate amount of old rock sugar, 3 lemons.
Exercise:
Step 1: When choosing ingredients, you must choose the best lemon and old rock sugar, so as to ensure the thin consistency and taste of the stewed finished product as much as possible.
Step 2: Wash the lemon with clear water first, then wipe the lemon peel with salt to remove pesticide residues, then slice it with a knife, remove seeds and cut it as thin as possible, so that the stewed lemon slices will not be hard.
Step 3: Make the big and old rock candy into small pieces. The sugar content of old rock candy is much better than that of ordinary finished rock candy, and it will make the stew taste stronger.
Step 4: Put the processed crystal sugar and lemon in the ratio of 3: 1, that is, 3 kg of crystal sugar and 1 kg of lemon, one layer of crystal sugar and one layer of lemon slices into the pot, add a proper amount of water into the stew pot, and then put the bowl containing our ingredients into the stew pot for boiling.
Step 5: Stir frequently when stewing, which can not only speed up the melting of rock sugar, but also fully blend rock sugar and lemon, because the stewing time is 12 hour. In the meantime, in order to avoid dry pot, water is added to the pot every 3 hours.
Step 6: The stewed rock sugar lemon turns amber and crystal clear. Only lemons stewed for 12 hours will have this color. Then find some preserved bottles. Boil with high-temperature water and put it in a disinfection cabinet to dry. We have stored our rock candy lemons, which can't be eaten at one time.
How to eat:
1, lemon slices can be eaten directly, and the effect is better.
2, it is also a good choice to drink after brewing with 40 degrees warm water.
