How to make candied haws?

Put sugar in the pot, one catty of sugar and half a catty of water. When the gas stove is on fire, be careful not to stir it when it is boiling.

When big bubbles begin to appear, turn to medium heat and shake the bottom of the pot by hand while cooking to avoid uneven heating and paste the pot.

When the sugar is slightly Huang Shi, boil all the water in the sugar and turn down the heat.

It is made by stringing wild fruits with bamboo sticks and dipping them in malt syrup, which quickly hardens in the wind. The common snacks in northern winter are generally made of hawthorn, which is thin and hard, sour and sweet, and very cold.
