  • Hawthorn cake Make Tips

    1. When boiling hawthorns, the ratio of hawthorns to water is 2:1 (hawthorns do not need to be pitted). 2. It is not advisable to use an iron pot to boil hawthorns; it is best to use a stainless steel pot or an enamel pot. 3. Remember not to pour all the prepared starch slurry in at once; pour it in small amounts several times, stirring well before adding the remainder.
