I went shopping in the morning and saw hawthorns for sale, which were very fresh.
A little tempted, so I bought it back.
When I got home, my baby was clamoring for some food and washed some for her, but she only took one bite and returned them to me. He also kept shouting: "Sanchi (dead)..." I took one and tasted it, and it was indeed very sour. I don't know how to digest the rest!
Suddenly I thought of the sweet gourd that was sour and sweet, and I thought of the sour water that made people's mouths flow. Hurry up and do it.
The first actual operation, because the amount of syrup I made was relatively small and I had to take photos, it was really messy when wrapping the hawthorn with syrup.
I am gratified that I have at least made some feeling and meaning of candied gourd. Baby ate five strings of little candied haws specially tailored for her in a row and asked her,"Is it sour?" Crispy replied "Not sour". Eat happily!
Even my husband, who has always been extremely afraid of acid, tasted three strings when he came back from work!
What is happiness?
Isn't happiness when you are in a hurry but you are unsure of making a bunch of food, and then someone is very kind to destroy it for you?!

Steps for Little candied gourd
1
Cut cooked peanuts in half and remove red clothes.
2
Clean the hawthorn and control the moisture. Remove the fruit handle and use a sharp knife to dig away the black thing on the other side. Use a knife to draw a circle through the middle of the hawthorn, grab the upper and lower halves with both hands, gently twist them in the opposite direction, and then gently dig with your hands, and the hawthorn seeds can be easily removed. The chopped peanuts are put into the peeled hawthorn pulp.
3
Install the two hawthorns in this way and cover them in the original position. Thread them together with toothpicks.
4
Put the rock sugar and water into the pan, and stir while heating until the rock sugar melts. The ratio of rock sugar to water is about 1:2.
5
Keep stirring and simmer on low heat until the syrup is thick and light amber. Pick it up with chopsticks to draw the silk. Put the chopsticks into cold water. The syrup can solidify quickly. Bite it and it will be hard and crisp without sticking to your teeth, which means that the syrup is ready. If it sticks to your teeth, it means that you need to continue cooking. Add appropriate amount of white sesame seeds to the boiled syrup.
6
Put the worn hawthorn strings in syrup and rotate quickly to make the syrup evenly adhere to the hawthorn fruits. Take them out and place them in a stainless steel container, and let them cool before eating.Little candied gourd Make Tips
1. Cooking sugar syrup is really a technical job. You can't rush it, so you have to cook it slowly on a low heat. 2. You cannot turn off the heat during the process of wrapping hawthorn syrup, otherwise the syrup will condense quickly. 3. When wrapping syrup, you should move quickly. Just twist the hawthorn strings in syrup and turn them in a whole circle. 4. It is best to place hawthorn skewers wrapped in sugar in stainless steel products or in oiled containers.
