A woman's warmth comes from qi and blood. Good qi and blood can nourish a woman's body, mind and appearance, especially in women over thirty. Just like a good marriage nourishes a woman, good qi and blood can make a woman look at least many years younger than her peers. Therefore, women must not be stingy when it comes to food consumption for nourishing and beautifying. They must be kind to themselves.
Since ancient times, donkey-hide gelatin has been regarded as the holy medicine for women to nourish yin and blood. This kind of conditioning from the inside out is better than any expensive cosmetics. It's just that Ejiao on the market is either too low in content or has additives, and the price is not cheap. Just like the most common pink donkey-hide gelatin cream in supermarkets, not only does it have a low content of donkey-hide gelatin, it only adds walnuts and sesame seeds, and it sells for more than 200 yuan per box, which is really not a good deal for ordinary families.
Therefore, I would rather spend a little more money to buy a good raw gum and cook it on my own. Not only is the taste not worse than those brands, but also the cost-effectiveness is calculated, which is more affordable than buying the finished product directly, and I can eat with confidence.
Next, teach women who know how to love themselves how to make delicious donkey-hide gelatin cream.

Ingredients

Walnut Red Date Ejiao Cake

1. Ejiao is knocked into small pieces and placed in a bowl. Good Ejiao is broken as soon as it is knocked.

2. Pour the yellow wine and soak for three days, soak the donkey-hide gelatin to soften. If you grind Ejiao into powder and soak it, half a day will be enough

3. Put the soaked donkey-hide glue into a pot, heat it over water, and stir while heating until the donkey-hide glue turns into a liquid

4. This is a good shape, very viscous, and it takes about half an hour. Stir constantly in the middle and be patient

5. The rock candy is ground with a food processor so that it melts easily. If you don’t have this set of tools, you can use fine sugar instead, or cook while stirring. This process takes about 40 minutes, and all the sugar can melt.

6. This is what it looks like after all the sugar has melted

7. At this time, first add the walnuts that have been baked in the oven, and stir evenly

8. Then add the red dates that have been pitted and chopped and stir evenly

9. Finally add black sesame seeds and stir well. The more you add, the thicker the donkey-hide gelatin sauce and the harder it is to stir. You must be patient

10. Stir while cooking, coat all the ingredients evenly with donkey-hide gelatin, turn off the heat after about 20 minutes

11. Pour it into a container covered with plastic wrap while it is hot, smooth the surface, let it cool, put it in the refrigerator for 24 hours, then take out and cut into pieces, ready to eat

Tips:
1. There are a lot of donkey-hide gelatin on Taobao. The so-called price is paid for. If you buy it, you can buy the old brand with a price of more than 500 yuan per catty;
2. It is not difficult to boil Ejiao, but it is very troublesome, because the cooking process is very laborious, especially after adding various materials, it is very viscous, stirring is physical work, you must be patient. It is more laborious to clean the pots and pans. I cleaned them by boiling water in the pot. The process is unbearable;
3. The boiled donkey-hide gelatin must be poured into a container covered with plastic wrap while it is hot, and it will solidify if it is cold;
4. When taking out donkey-hide gelatin paste after 24 hours, use a sharp knife to cut into pieces after tearing off the plastic wrap. Put it in the refrigerator if you don't usually eat it;
5. Before boiling donkey-hide gelatin, it is best to see if you can eat it. Under normal circumstances, both men and women can eat it, but menstruating women should not eat it, and it is also not suitable for people with three highs. After miscarriage and postpartum, you need to wait until the lochia is drained before taking it. Do not take it if the child is too young;
6. Ejiao is a good thing, but you shouldn’t eat too much. It is easy to get angry. You should take it at most 2-3 yuan a day and take it for a long time. This time, it should be enough for one person to eat for one and a half months. Let’s refer to it.
