Production:

1. Retrieval of materials

Peel off the petals of the collected lily heads , to separate the side valves and heart valves, or use a sharp knife to cut everything horizontally near the base of the bulb, and the scales will separate naturally. Then put it into a pot, add water and an appropriate amount of plant ash, bring to a boil over high heat, then pick it up and put it into clean water to wash and dissipate heat.

2. Grinding

Place the lily heads in a beater or stone mortar and mash them, then add water to grind them. The finer the grinding, the higher the powder extraction rate. Then put the above-mentioned milk into a cloth bag, place it in a vat, and rinse the bag with clean water. While flushing, stir until the slurry is filtered out. It is required to rinse until there is no white juice in the residue and the filtrate becomes clear water.

3. Flooding

If lily powder is to be pure and beautiful in appearance, it is necessary to control the steps of bleaching and precipitation. During operation, rinse the rinsed slurry with clean water 1 to 2 times. Stir once a day. After clarification, remove the floating flour residue and remove the bottom sediment. Place the middle flour slurry in another container, dilute it with water and let it settle. Repeat this 1 to 2 times until the pink color is white. End the precipitation phase.

4. Drying

Pack the rinsed and precipitated lily powder in clean cloth bags, hang it up with a rope, and drain it after 12 hours. You can also put clean plant ash in the compartment of a cloth bag to absorb the water, then take out the starch and break it into pieces of dough. Place it on a bamboo mat to dry in the sun until it is semi-dry. Then break it into many small pieces and shave it into thin flakes. . The drying area should prevent sand and impurities from flying in to avoid affecting the quality.
