Cao Xian's traditional manual method.

Traditional simple practice:

Ingredients: dried Mesona blume (or Mesona blume, Mesona blume juice), sweet potato powder (rice paste is also acceptable), water and alkali (the function is to increase toughness).

1, because I didn't grind it into powder when I brought it, so I'll grind it in the mill first.

2. Boil the water, add the ground Cao Xian powder and alkali to boil for about 15 minutes, turn off the fire and cool for a while. Because the grinding is not very fine, I want to make Cao Xianguo jelly taste more delicate and filter it with white cloth. Mix sweet potato powder with water to make slurry, add boiled Cao Xian juice, stir while heating, turn off the fire and cool after boiling. It's better to put it in the refrigerator after cooling.

3. When eating, cut into small pieces and add honey or rock sugar or white sugar. Peanuts, lotus seeds, red beans, mung beans, milkshakes, etc. can also be added. To suit your favorite taste.

Note: The whole process takes about half an hour. You can eat healthy and delicious summer jelly by yourself.
