Rock sugar
150g
, boiled water 150g, bamboo stick
The practice of candied haws
1. Buy hawthorn, wash it in advance and dry it. Take a hawthorn and gouge out the black part at the bottom with a knife.
2. Put a large piece of rock sugar in the microwave oven for one minute, break it gently, and break it into pieces immediately.
3. String the washed hawthorn with bamboo sticks.
4, do a good job of candied haws, in fact, the most critical step is to lick sugar. Boil the water, put the rock sugar into the pot, and the rock sugar will melt. Don't stir, you can pick up the pot and shake it a little, so that the sugar water is heated more evenly, and the range must not be large, to prevent the icing from hanging on the wall and crystallizing.
5. When all the rock sugar is dissolved, turn to low heat and heat slowly. This time is a bit long, about seven or eight minutes (those who have survived the moon cake syrup should be very experienced, and they are almost the same, except that there is citric acid in it, so it has not solidified yet).
6. Observe the foam of sugar solution carefully. When the color of the sugar solution becomes a little yellow and the foam is too much and crowded, it is almost ready. Put the tied hawthorn into it, roll it up quickly, take it out, put it in an oiled iron plate, and set it in a cold place 10 minute.
Extended data:
skill
1, sugar must be dissolved in boiling water, and the ratio of boiling water to rock sugar is 1: 1 (of course, there is no rock sugar to sell outside, so the cost is limited. You can also use white sugar, but it should be noted that sugar is easier to survive the fire than rock sugar, and the color will turn yellow or even black).
2. Observe the color and foam of the sugar solution. The color of rock sugar will not change much, just slightly yellow.
3. The best way to identify whether the sugar solution is ok: prepare chopsticks, dip them in cold water, take them out after 20 seconds, and take a bite to see if they are solidified and not sticky.
4, the plate must be oiled, placed in a cold place for ten minutes to completely solidify, not in the heating room, the sugar has melted.
Hawthorn can also be replaced by oranges, apples, cherry tomatoes, kiwis and anything you like, but I still like Sugar-Coated Berry.
