Fresh hawthorn

Homemade dried hawthorn?

Wash fresh hawthorn and slice it. I always go to seed. Recently, a kitchen friend told me that keeping seeds well can lower blood fat. You can try.

Spread the chopped hawthorn piece by piece without overlapping. Put it in a ventilated place for about half a day to a day, and the surface will be a little dry and become sobbing.

At this time, you can put the hawthorn slices in the baking tray away, put them in the oven and bake them at 90 degrees for about half an hour. You can see that a lot of water vapor has evaporated. Take out hawthorn slices, spread them in a ventilated place again, cool them for a few hours, then bake them in an oven at 90 degrees for another half an hour, and then spread them out to dry. Repeat this several times and it will only take two or three days. It should be noted that the drier the hawthorn, the shorter the baking time in the oven.

If the weather is bad and it can't be dried, you can also bake it directly in the oven at 90 degrees for about 20 minutes, then take it out and turn it over and bake it again. Always be careful not to burn when baking.

Newly-made dried hawthorn needs to be placed in a ventilated place for a period of time. Don't put it in a plastic bag at once. I put it in a plastic basin with many meshes for washing vegetables and continued to cool it. Because it feels dry, there is actually a small amount of residual water vapor, which can only be packaged after it is completely dry.
