1. Do not use dried persimmons if they become moldy, otherwise eating them will have an impact on the body and cause food safety issues. Here are the recommended methods for drying persimmons: Peel: Before making persimmons into persimmons, you must first Peel the persimmons. Wash the fresh persimmons, drain the water, and then peel off the skin with a paring knife.
2. Sun-drying: Sun-drying persimmons requires a ventilated and sunny environment. First place the persimmons on a bamboo drawer, and dry the persimmons in a sunny and ventilated condition until the skin of the persimmons dries up (not allowed to get wet). Use your hands to gently squeeze it into a cake shape.
3. Extrusion: The process of drying persimmons requires two rounds of extrusion. The first persimmons are not fully formed yet. The squeezed persimmons need to be put back on the bamboo drawer to dry in the sun again. After about eight to ten days, they are squeezed again (the same method as the first squeeze).
4. Sealing: Place the dried persimmons evenly into a small vat, seal the mouth of the vat with plastic wrap, close the lid, and frost the persimmons.
5. The process of drying persimmons is very important, and time is very important for drying persimmons. If there is not enough time, the persimmons will not be dry enough and the storage time will be shortened. The time for drying persimmons depends on the weather and whether the sun is sufficient, and the time will vary under different circumstances.
6. Sufficient sunshine: If it is sunny, the weather will be crisper and the sunshine will be relatively sufficient. Under such circumstances, persimmons are generally left to dry for about 8-10 days, and for large fruits, about 20 days. Insufficient sunshine: If it is cloudy or there is insufficient sunshine, it is not recommended to dry persimmons. And the drying time of persimmons may be extended at this time.
7. When drying persimmons, you should turn them over once or twice a day to ensure that the persimmons are evenly exposed to direct sunlight and absorb enough sunlight.
