Don'e donkey-hide gelatin 250g | Rock Sugar 150g |
Walnut 500g | Black sesame seeds 250g |
Wolfberry a handful | Cashew a handful |
Dried red dates Two handfuls | Yellow wine 500ml |
Step 1
250g of Dong'e donkey-hide gelatin block can be smashed directly in the sealed box because it is sealed. If there is no sealed box, wrap it with a clean cloth and smash it. Try to break it as much as possible. It will be easier to soften when soaking. In a sealed jar, add rice wine to soak. It usually takes about four days to soak. During this period, you can open it and stir it to prevent sticking to the bottom and to soak the gelatin evenly.Step 2
It is better to eat more nuts in summer. Lycium barbarum is mild in nature and can also be eaten in summer. It is not suitable to eat too much longan in summer because it is easy to get angry, so longan is not included. If making it in winter, you can add some longan meat, walnut kernels, black sesame seeds, cashew nuts, Saute the jujube slices until fragrant and dry, then cool and set asideStep 3
Pour the soaked donkey-hide gelatin into a small basin. I boiled it over water so that the temperature will not be too hot and the pot will not burn. Put it into a large pot with water and boil it. Bring to a boil over high heat, usually ten to fifteen It will melt in a few minutes. Cook on low heat for about half an hour. Be sure to stir constantly to prevent it from sticking to the pot. Donkey-hide gelatin sticks easily, so it is safer to cook it in water.Step 4
I put rock sugar, so I poured the crushed rock sugar into the pot at fifteen minutes. If I put honey, I can put it in half an hour later. The rock sugar needs time to boil, so I kept stirring until the rock sugar melted. Rock sugar also has the effect of relieving heat in summerStep 5
After about half an hour, if the glue has flagged, you can add the auxiliary ingredients. If it has not flagged, you have to continue cooking for a while. This is related to the amount of rice wine put in. During the stirring process, I always use wooden chopsticks or wooden spoons, do not use metal ones, metal ones are easy to stickStep 6
After the glue is boiled until the flag is hung, add the auxiliary ingredients prepared before, including walnut kernels, red dates, wolfberries, cashew nuts, and black sesame seeds. Since it is a summer version, I put more nuts to avoid getting angry when eating.Step 7
After adding the ingredients, the glue is not very sticky. Let it simmer for about ten minutes. When it becomes sticky, you can turn off the heat.Step 8
Put plastic wrap in a square sealed box. It must be larger than the four sides of the sealed box. Tin foil can also be used, but it is not easy to tear after it is made. Pour the glue into the box while it is hot, cover with the plastic wrap, close the sealing lid, and let it cool. Put it in the refrigerator and slice it the next dayStep 9
After slicing it the next day, put it in a sealed box and refrigerate it. Don’t cut too much at one time, just enough to last a few days.
