Ingredients

Steps

  1. I grabbed a small handful of lotus seeds with my hands, rinsed them, and soaked them in water. The red dates at home were too dry to dry, so when soaking the lotus seeds, I soaked them in water for 2 hours. After the lotus seeds are soaked, check whether all the lotus cores have been picked out.

  2. Tremella is soaked in cold water. Remove the old root in the middle, tear it in half (only use half of it), and tear it into small pieces.

  3. After soaking in the bath for two hours, it was still very dry😓. I put the dates and lotus seeds in the pressure cooker at the same time and cooked them on low heat for 5 minutes. Then I turned off the heat and waited for the pressure cooker to release naturally.

  4. Open the pressure cooker, the aroma of dates wafts out of the air, and the lotus seeds become soft.
