Tremella and Lotus Seed Soup ~ A clever way to remove the glue

• 

  1. Soak the ugly ears in advance, at least 4 hours ago.Let the white fungus fully absorb water and let the hair grow longer.Soak the red dates in salt water for 20 minutes to soak out the impurities in the wrinkles.Wash the lotus seeds slightly and do not need to soak them.

• 

  2. Remove the roots of the soaked white fungus and tear it into pieces Small pieces, the more broken the better.Shredded Tremella fuciformis is easier to glue.

• 

  3. Add enough water, the white fungus will still be cooked after cooking It will swell a little bigger, so don’t use too little water.Of course, too much water will also affect the consistency of the colloid.You'll get a feel for it after trying it a few times.Add the red dates and lotus seeds, leaving out the rock sugar.I used an electric pressure cooker to cook it.I used a beef and mutton program the night before, and kept it simmering in the pot after finishing it.The next morning, I added rock sugar and simmered for 25 minutes.The specific time is based on the observation of the gelatinization.The gelatinization time of different Tremella fuciformis is different.However, it is easier for the sugar to be glued down later.

  4. Add a little sugar osmanthus or wolfberry when it is out of the pot.Here is a close-up photo of the gelatin.The cold food gelatin is thicker.

  5. Tremella itself has no special fragrance, so add some scented ones Ingredients are very necessary, such as red dates, sugared osmanthus and so on.The overall taste will be improved a lot, and it will be truly fragrant and smooth.
