The post-70s were looking for childhood memories. I remember that the snack that I loved very much when I was young was dried bayberry. After drinking Chinese medicine, my mother would give us a packet of dried bayberry, so sometimes we would pretend to be sick and drink medicine, haha! People often bring baskets of bayberry from Ningbo. There are not enough people at home to eat them. They will soon have small insects if they are too late to eat. Soak some bayberry wine and deal with the rest as soon as possible. Then let’s make it into dried bayberry preserves. Keep the delicious food forever! "

Ingredients

Some Bayberry
Some Rock Sugar Or White Sugar
Some Salt
Some Water
Some Lemon

1. Put a few tablespoons of salt in the bayberry in the pot, add water to boil, so that the acid water can be removed

2. Pour out the water after boiling for a while, add water to continue cooking

3. After boiling, add more rock sugar or white sugar, and taste whether it is sweet enough in the middle (you can put a little less water, my water is a bit too much, it’s to make bayberry juice to make jelly)

4. Keep boiling until the water gradually becomes less (I poured a cup of bayberry juice in the middle)

5. The water content becomes less and the sugar juice becomes more and more viscous. At this time, cook it on a low heat and use a spoon to keep stirring to prevent sticking

6. Squeeze in a few drops of lemon juice when it’s about to boil and stir

7. The sugar has been completely absorbed, basically no juice is enough

8. Arrange the dried bayberry on a baking tray to dry. If you like to eat it moist, that’s it. The taste is good.

9. If you like to eat something dry, you can put it in the sun, or bake it in the oven at 100°C for an hour, then put it in a crisper and taste it slowly. It can be stored for a long time!
