When I make them myself, I find they taste better than the ones outside. Especially a dish made with hawthorn fruit, which is sour and sweet when it comes out of the pot, delicious and refreshing, and most importantly, the steps are very simpleGenerally, kitchen newbies can operate it. That's 'hawthorn jelly'A delicacy that makes people drool involuntarily.
So, it is inevitable that someone will be curious, since hawthorn jelly is so delicious, how does it actually make it? In fact, the making of hawthorn jelly is very simple, the key is in some details. Especially when frying hawthorn, the heat must not be too high, and it must be constantly stirred, otherwise it is easy to burn the hawthorn, which is quite embarrassing.
Below, let's talk about it, today I will share the specific steps and details of hawthorn jelly, I will express it in the simplest and easiest language, so that everyone can understand and understand, everyone's little friends, let's look together
Preparation
Main ingredients: 600 grams of fresh hawthorn
Accessories: one lemon, three grams of salt, a little oil, two hundred grams of white sugar, one hundred grams of rock sugar
Hawthorn jelly steps
Step oneFirst, wash the prepared hawthorn clean, then put it into a basin, add water that covers the hawthorn, then add two spoons of salt, and soak for half an hour (the purpose of soaking with salt is to remove dirt), after soaking, wash it again and drain the water
Step twoNext, cut the washed hawthorn (cutting in half is easy to remove the seeds), and remove the seeds inside (this step must be done very thoroughly, otherwise the texture will be hard and after entering the mouth),
Step threeThen pour the processed hawthorn into the pot, add water that covers the hawthorn, boil over high heat, then reduce the heat to medium heat, cook until the hawthorn peels open (this process takes about ten minutes),
Step fourThen put the cooked hawthorn into a blender, add water that just covers the hawthorn again, and blend into a puree (the puree should be like a thin puree), after blending, filter it through a filter cloth
Step fivePour the filtered hawthorn puree into a flat-bottomed pan, use a small fire, constantly stir, at the same time, add rock sugar and white sugar, and a little lemon juice, then constantly stir-fry until the color becomes darker and the hawthorn puree sticks to the spatula cannot be dropped (at this time the moisture will become much less),
Step sixFinally, put the container or mold filled with hawthorn puree, first brush a thin layer of oil (putting oil into it is for easy demolding later), then pour the hawthorn puree into the container, put it in the refrigerator to chill for a night, and the next day you can take it out to cut into pieces to eat

Through the above steps, I believe that many people have a deeper understanding of hawthorn jelly. In fact, there are many ways to make hawthorn jelly, and each method is different, and the method I shared this time is considered very simple. Their overall steps can be divided into two steps, the first step is to make hawthorn puree, and in this step, we should preferably use a non-stick pan, because the reason for my failure several times is because of this step, it is very easy to burn the bottom; the second step is to put it into the container, this step doesn't have much technical content, but in the later stage of putting it into the container, we must press it tightly, so that the texture will be elastic when entering the mouth
