#四session Baking Contest and It's Love to Eat Festival#dried Mulberry Fruit and Mulberry Juice
1.
Remove the stalks of the mulberries, wash them, and control the moisture.
2.
Put the mulberries and rock sugar in a clean pot.
3.
Bring to a boil on medium heat, no need to add water. A lot of water will be produced when mulberries are boiled! Bring to a boil and reduce the heat to a simmer, add two drops of lemon juice (optional), and stir constantly. Until the juice is obviously reduced and slightly thicker.
4.
Grab the mulberries and squeeze the water. You can put it in a mesh sieve and press out the water with a spoon.
5.
Spread the mulberries on the baking tray and scatter them with your hands or chopsticks. In the middle of the oven, bake at 130 degrees for 60 minutes (the specific baking time is adjusted according to the amount of mulberries and the degree of dryness and wetness).
6.
Don't pour out the remaining soup in the pot, you can drink it directly, if it feels too sweet, you can add some boiling water. Super delicious and nutritious!
7.
Just sprinkle some sugar on top of the roasted dried mulberries! It's delicious without sprinkling sugar! Seal and store at room temperature.
8.
I made a small amount this time. I bake it for 60 minutes. The finished product is crispy and will become a little softer the next day. If you like a squishy taste, you can shorten the baking time.
Tips:
1. There is no need to add water in the whole process, as the mulberries will produce a lot of water after boiling.
2. If there is no rock sugar, the same amount of white sugar can be used instead. Lemon juice is mainly used for flavor enhancement, but it can be omitted.
3. Boil slowly over low heat and stir constantly to avoid muddying the bottom of the pot.
4. The specific time and temperature of baking, please adjust according to the characteristics of your own oven and the amount of mulberries. If you like a little softer, you can shorten the time. You can take it out and taste it during the roasting process.
5. Crisp and waxy dried mulberries can be sealed and stored at room temperature. The shelf life of squishy dried fruits is relatively short and can be stored in the refrigerator.
