How to make dried persimmons and their benefits.
In our hometown, the persimmons are ripe from October to November every year. At this time, many people use persimmons to make a variety of delicacies. For example, when the weather gets cold, you can eat a bite of the persimmon cake with frost hanging on it, and the sweet taste will be satisfying. There are also people who like to buy hard persimmons, peel them, cut them into cubes, and then dry them in the sun for a few days to make dried persimmons. Eating a handful of dried persimmons every day has many benefits for the body.
I prefer to eat dried hard persimmons compared to persimmons. The sweetness of persimmons is too high, which is more harmful to the body, especially for middle-aged people and above. The dried fruits made of hard persimmons are soft and glutinous and sweet, and you won't feel tired of eating them. So every autumn, I would go to the vegetable market to buy 20 catties of hard persimmons and dry them. The dried persimmons made in this way are 100 times better than fresh persimmons.
I believe everyone has eaten persimmons, but few people eat dried fruits made from hard persimmons. There are even many people who do not know how to make hard dried persimmons. Next, I will introduce in detail how to make hard dried persimmons.
Raw material preparation]: 20-30 kg of hard persimmon.
Hard persimmon dried practice]:
Step 1: Soak the persimmons in clean water for 5 minutes, then scrub them one by one, then rinse them with running water and drain them.
Step 2: Prepare a clean paring knife and peel the skin of the persimmon clean. The skin of persimmons is thicker and requires some force, but be careful not to cut the flesh.
Step 3: Place the peeled persimmons on a clean cutting board and cut into cubes. Don't cut too thinly when cutting, otherwise the dried persimmons will taste worse after drying.
Step 4: Prepare a clean dustpan and place the cut persimmon pieces evenly on top of it, not too tightly so as not to mold and spoil in places that have not been exposed to the sun.
Step 5: Dry the persimmons on one side, about 4-5 hours, when the surface is obviously dry, turn the persimmons one by one, and dry for another 4-5 hours. After both sides are almost dry, continue to dry for another 2-3 days. Every half day or so, shake the dustpan a few times to prevent steam from forming at the bottom, causing the persimmons to soften.
Step 6: When the persimmons are completely dry, prepare a clean glass jar or sealed bag and place the dried persimmons in it. After each meal, seal it in time.
Master Hu has something to say]:
Note 1: The persimmons I used today were purchased from a local vegetable market for 2 yuan per catty. You can follow this ** when buying, if it exceeds 3 yuan, you must remember to make a counteroffer. Dried persimmons made with soft persimmons do not work well, so be sure to use hard persimmons.
Precautions 2: When drying persimmons, don't be lazy, it's best to flip them every half a day, so that the persimmons can be dried more evenly. There must be a lot of sun when drying persimmons on the first day, otherwise the dried persimmons will turn black.
Dried persimmon is not only delicious, but also has a variety of effects such as strengthening the spleen, nourishing the stomach, moistening the lungs, and laxative. Moreover, dried persimmons that have been dried are more delicious than fresh persimmons. I hope that if you have time, you can also try making it at home.
