Method for making sugar-coated haws

1. The ingredients we need to prepare are hawthorn, bamboo sticks, white sugar (rock sugar) and clear water, or according to everyone's taste, strawberries, kiwis and oranges can be processed, and all tastes are delicious.

2. Clean the prepared hawthorn and fruit and wipe off the excess water.

3. Prepare a knife, cut the hawthorn in half, remove the core (it tastes better after removing the core), and then string the fruits according to your favorite. For example, you can string hawthorn and grapes into a string, which tastes sweet and sour and is very popular with everyone.

4. If you have a deep pot at home, you can use a deep pot (which is convenient for hawthorn to occupy sugar evenly when it is finally cooked). If not, you can also use a pan. Then, put sugar and water into the pot and heat it according to the ratio of 1: 1. You can decide the amount of sugar according to your own hawthorn, and stir the sugar and water with chopsticks to melt.

5. Boil the sugar water over high heat, heat it over medium heat, and slowly boil it into syrup. In the process of heating, prepare a clean board and sprinkle some water on it. Always keep the water on the board dry, observe that the foam becomes thinner, the color turns yellow slightly, and the fire boils slowly. You can add some melon seeds and sesame seeds to the syrup, which will taste better. At this time, you can put a bowl of cold water next to it, don't stir the syrup at will, and observe the foam. You can take some syrup and put it in cold water for 20 seconds. Try syrup. If it doesn't occupy your teeth, turn off the fire at once. Evenly put the strung Sugar-Coated Berry into the sugar water and put it on the board that we prepared to add water in advance. In this way, Sugar-Coated Berry can be easily solidified and picked up, so that it won't occupy the board and can't be carried. You can eat sweet and sour old Beijing candied haws after cooling.
