How to make coconut milk bird’s nest
Overview
Coconut milk bird's nest is a relatively convenient and simple entry-level bird's nest stew. It has a richer flavor than rock sugar bird's nest, and the stew is relatively simple. However, many of the tips are not something you can learn at the beginning. I have been eating bird's nest for about 4 years, and I have never been to a meeting. I figured it out little by little.

Soak the dried bird's nest for 2-4 hours. The secret is: soak it in cold water to avoid nutrient loss. If the water is muddy when soaking, it means the bird's nest is filled with fake starch.
-
Remove any stray hairs and filter. Secret recipe: Don’t buy bird’s nests. The nutrients in bird’s nests are water-soluble. If you pick and toss them repeatedly, the nutrients will be gone. Moreover, there are bird feathers in the bird’s nests, which need ozone sterilization. You can’t clean them yourself. It’s not much more expensive than buying high-quality bird’s nests from the factory.
-
Separate the bird's nest piece by piece. Secret recipe: In this step, you can tell whether it has been patched. If it is soaked and divided into two halves, and the other half is very short and broken, it has been patched.
-
Add coconut milk, rock sugar, bird's nest and water. Secret recipe: It is best to buy imported coconut milk. Do not buy the concentrated kind because it smells of preservatives. It is better to buy dry powder. Stir well when stewing, otherwise the coconut milk will clump after stewing.
-
Set simmer time to 1.5 hours. Secret recipe: It can be steamed on a natural gas stove or stewed in a glass stew pot, but it is best when simmered slowly over water. And it can automatically keep warm, which is more convenient
