Tips:
How the sugar is made is the key. After the rock sugar is melted, change the heat to medium and small. I made it in an electric ceramic stove. The temperature is 600 degrees first, and then changed to 350 degrees after melting. There will be dense bubbles in about 15 minutes, and the color of the sugar will change. Slightly yellow, dip it with chopsticks, it has a drawing effect, and it's fine at this time.
In addition, the dipped candied haws should be placed in a cold place so that the sugar can solidify.
