Dried fruit gelatin
By WestonOlson
E-jiao is also known as basin covering glue and donkey skin glue. It is a glue block made from donkey skin. The preparation method is: first scrape the donkey skin, cut it into small pieces, add water to simmer for 3 days and nights, wait until the juice is thick, take out the donkey skin pieces, and then add water to simmer. After repeating this for 5 to 6 times, the boiled donkey-hide gelatin juice is filtered to remove impurities, concentrated with fire to a thick paste, condensed, dried in the shade and agglomerated, and then the donkey-hide gelatin can be used as medicine. The high-quality donkey-hide gelatin is better if it is black in color, transparent and bright, has no stench, and is not wet and soft in summer. E-jiao is mainly produced in Shandong, Zhejiang, Beijing, Shanghai and other places. The most famous products produced in Dong 'e Town, Pingyin County, Shandong Province.

Steps for Dried fruit gelatin
1
Knock the purchased E-jiao into small pieces and soak it in rice wine for 2-3 days, mainly to melt the E-jiao (but I found that if you put the bowl soaked in E-jiao on hot water, the E-jiao will melt faster, which saves time). Prepare all kinds of dried fruits, such as longan, red dates, walnuts, raisins, sesame seeds, etc. I only have red dates, walnuts and raisins at home.
2
Break and remove the donkey-hide gelatin with the packaging, pour in appropriate amount of rice wine. JM, which is allergic to alcohol, can be replaced with mineral water, and soak until the donkey-hide gelatin melts.
3
Pour the melted donkey-hide gelatin into a small pot, add appropriate amount of rock sugar, low heat, and slowly heat it, stirring constantly to avoid clogging the pot.
4
About ten minutes, the donkey-gelatin and rock sugar are all melted. When the donkey-gelatin is relatively thick, pour the prepared dried fruits in, stir evenly and turn off the heat; find a small container, spread plastic wrap, apply oil, and cook well. Pour the donkey-gelatin dried fruits in, press them tightly with your hands, and sprinkle them with sesame seeds quickly...& lt;(Black sesame seeds are better).
5
Remove it after the donkey-hide gelatin is solidified.
6
Cut it into small pieces and treat it as snacks. Without the fishy smell of donkey-hide gelatin, you can only eat the fragrant taste of various dried fruits mixed together, and it won't be too sweet.
