It is a common tonic herb for modern people,
He also composed a story of blood replenishment.
But when the consumer sees the instruction manual,
"Redemption"
Have you ever questioned....
What does "blanching" mean?
Let's talk today
What is The Transformation Service?
Yakitori is one of the methods of decoction of Chinese medicine. Put the gum drug into water or add a little rice wine to steam or dissolve in the decoction solution, and then pour into the decoction solution and take it evenly.
What are the ways to dissolve?
1. Crushing or powdering and dissolving: Ejiao crushing or powdering can increase the area of contact with hot water, and stir continuously after pouring hot water to help accelerate dissolution.
2. Stew through water to maintain water temperature: when the water is hot enough, you can use the "water stew" method, that is, put the ejiao in a small bowl or cup, add an appropriate amount of boiled water or filtered liquid in the pot to stew, so that the water in the bowl remains around the boiling point, and constantly stir.
3. When the liquid is thawed, it is first heard and filtered: when the liquid is used as a solvent, it cannot be simply understood as soaking the liquid. The Chinese medicine that needs to be cooked in the prescription should be boiled, pour out the liquid, let it stand and then take the liquid or filter the solution to clarify the solution for reuse; if it needs to be heated, the same method of "stewing through water" can be used.
We are now through the common ejiao cake, that is, powder melting.
Why do you want to close?
Gum-based Chinese medicines, if decocted with other drugs, may not be able to dissolve completely, or sink at the bottom of the pot or even scorched and charred, losing their due efficacy.
In addition, gums are fried with other drugs, and may also adhere to the surface of other Chinese medicines, affecting the release of active ingredients of other Chinese medicines. Even if these gums are decocted separately, they are easy to stick to the pan, and at the same time, foam will be generated, which will easily overflow outside the pan, resulting in a large loss of active ingredients. Therefore, it is necessary to be individually yakira to guarantee efficacy.
