Many people love to eat dates, soft and glutinous, sweet and very appetizing, but also can nourish blood and beauty, very nourishing, taking advantage of the current season of winter dates on the market, you can make your own dates at home;

[Main ingredients]: 3 catties of winter dates
[Seasoning]: 600ml of water, 600g of sugar
Step 1: Here are 3 catties of winter dates, first put them into a larger basin, soak them in salt for 5 minutes, then add flour or starch to scrub for about 5 minutes, scrub the remaining impurities and dirt on the surface, and then rinse them with water several times, drain the water and set aside;
Step 2: You need to prepare a fork or toothpick to draw lines on the surface of the winter date, so that the sweetness can better soak into the pulp, this step took a total of 10 minutes;
Step 3: In order to make this date, I also went to buy a glass of lemonade, took two thick straws, we can use this thicker straw to take out the jujube core, the flesh of the winter jujube is very crisp and tender, and it can be easily taken out with a straw.
But every time I take a jujube core, I need to push out the jujube core with the help of chopsticks, and then take out another jujube core, so it took me nearly 40 minutes in total for 3 catties of winter dates;
Step 4: Pour 600ml of water and 600 grams of sugar directly into the pot, and then pour all the processed winter dates into it.
First turn on the fire a little bigger, boil the sugar, boil out the water in the winter dates, and finally boil the water in the soup to become viscous, it took almost 50 minutes here.
During the period, keep stirring the bottom of the pot to avoid sticking to the pot;
Step 5: Then turn to low heat and continue to boil for about 10 minutes, you can turn it halfway to avoid sticking to the bottom of the pot, but don't turn it too often, so as not to turn the pulp over.
Until all the winter dates are soft and transparent, you can turn off the heat;
Step 6: Turn off the heat and let it cool naturally, then soak for half an hour.
Step 7: Then spread the dustpan with oiled paper or tin foil, and place the boiled winter dates one by one.
Then let it dry in the sun for 1-2 days to dry all the moisture;
It's okay like this, the color is crystal clear, hard to the touch, and the sweetness of homemade dates is just right,
