Tips:
1. Be sure to cook with the minimum heat, and the whole cooking time is about 1 hour;
2. In order to prevent the chain reaction of sugar crystallization, some syrup may adhere to the wall of the pot when the syrup is boiled. After the water on the pot wall volatilizes, the syrup can appear tiny crystals. When these crystals are in contact with the syrup, a chain reaction can occur. The syrup also turns into crystalline particles. It is possible that the whole pot of syrup will turn into sugar crystal particles, which will bring the whole pot of sugar sand. To prevent this phenomenon, we need to wash the syrup on the wall of the pot, dip the brush on the wall of the water, and brush the circle. The water runs down the wall of the pot and washes away the syrup on the wall.
