Hawthorn Snowball

Overview

It’s really not easy. I made it several times just to eat a hawthorn snowball. In addition to making candied red fruits, I also made candied haws, or candied hawthorn... In the end, I turned into canned hawthorn. I made it over and over again, putting a pot next to it. If something went wrong, I would put it in the pot, put some water in it, cook it, and turn it into a can. Anyway, it was not wasted. The hard work paid off, and I finally made it perfect, and I summed up a lot of experience. Practice has proved that rock sugar is the easiest, but the finished product tastes a bit hard; white sugar is also easy to make, and the finished product is white and delicate, and melts in the mouth; the heat of soft white sugar is very difficult to control. This can be considered a good food for nourishing yin and moisturizing the lungs😄

Ingredients

Steps

1. 1 Wash hawthorn with salt water

   

2. 2 Use a corer to remove the core (or use a metal pen holder or pen cap)

   

3. 3 All cored

   

4. 4 Wipe dry with kitchen paper or air dry without any moisture

   

5. 5 Put 50 grams of white sugar into the pot

   

6. 6 Add 50 grams of water until the sugar melts

   

7. 7 Mainly observe the changes in the sugar, bring it to a boil, and immediately turn to low heat. Big bubbles will appear in the sugar water

   

8. 8 Boil it again, stirring constantly with a shovel, and the water in the sugar water will gradually become less. Because the fire is low, there will always be big bubbles in the middle. To see if the water is less, look at the edges. If there is a cool part that is not bubbling on the edge, it means that the water has not been exhausted

   

9. 9 Small bubbles appear on the edge, indicating that all the water has been used up. If you are using rock sugar, it is easier to judge. You can feel the rustling sound of the shovel, which means that the water has been used up and the sugar has begun to return to sand. At this time, you can turn off the heat

   

10. 10 Add hawthorn and stir-fry

    

11. 11 Keep stirring until the sugar turns white and all sticks to the hawthorn

    

12. 12 Finished product
