Tips for making Bingtanghulu

Many people like to eat Bingtang Hulu, which is a traditional Chinese dessert. It tastes sweet and sour, and the color is bright, and children like it very much. The recipe I shared to make Bingtanghulu is very simple, you can make it at home, and it doesn’t take a lot of time and doesn’t require a lot of ingredients. If you want to make rock Bingtanghulu, the most important step is to boil the syrup.

I recommend that you use hot water to dissolve the rock sugar, which is faster and more effective, and the ratio of hot water to rock sugar is 1:1. When boiling the syrup, keep observing the color change of the syrup. If you find that the color starts to turn yellow and becomes sticky, the syrup is ready. Many people are too anxious when boiling the syrup, which is easy to burn. Try to use a small fire to heat it, and the boiled syrup will be more delicate. After making the syrup, add the Bingtanghulu to the syrup and rotate 2 times.

In this way, the Bingtanghulu are ready, do not rotate for a long time, so that there is too much syrup on the Bingtanghulu, which will also affect the taste. Some people will put the sugar haws just dipped in the syrup into cold water for 30 seconds. This method is also very effective to make the syrup solidify. Hawthorn should be pitted in advance. The method is very simple. Use chopsticks to poke through the center of the hawthorn to remove the pit. The method is simple and saves time.

The nutrition of Bingtanghulu

The main ingredients for making rock candy haws are rock sugar and hawthorn, which is to boil the rock sugar into syrup, and then wrap the syrup on the hawthorn. Hawthorn is a kind of Chinese herbal medicine after drying. Many people use hawthorn to make tea. It has a good health effect. Hawthorn is rich in nutrients. Eating more hawthorn can improve digestive function. Rock sugar itself is also very nutritious. It also has the effect of moistening the lungs and relieving cough.

Children like to eat Bingtanghulu very much, and I liked it very much when I was a child. If you have indigestion, you will eat a bunch of Bingtanghulu. Now you can make it at home, which is very simple. Every time I make rock Bingtanghulu, I will carefully choose hawthorns, and I want the ones that are bigger and sweeter. Sugar-Bingtanghulu made from high-quality hawthorn look better and taste better.

What should I pay attention to when eating Bingtanghulu?

Bingtang gourd is sweet and sour, but you can’t eat too much. It has the effect of enhancing appetite, children are easy to eat more, and try not to eat Bingtanghulu before meals. Eating Bingtanghulu on an empty stomach will affect the digestive function of the stomach. Children who eat too much Bingtanghulu are prone to tooth decay. It contains a lot of sugar, which is not good for children’s healthy growth.

I recommend that children eat 2 sticks of rock Bingtanghulu a week. If you have gastrointestinal problems, try not to eat Bingtanghulu. Sugar haws contain a lot of sugar, and people with diabetes should not eat too much sugar haws. If you are losing weight, you should also try to eat Bingtanghulu as little as possible. Pregnant women should not eat a lot of Bingtanghulu, and can eat 1 bunch a week.
