Steps for E-jiao soup
1
Put donkey-hide gelatin into a container with a lid and soak in rice wine for 2 days until soft. I used Guyue Longshan rice wine (a famous brand in Zhejiang), but I forgot to take it when taking pictures.
2
Pour the rock sugar water into the soaked donkey-hide gelatin, stir well, cover, and steam for one hour over water. Note: Do not use plastic covers, because the steaming time is long, and the steam temperature covers may melt the plastic covers. Make sure there is enough water in the steamer. The original plastic lid for my bowl was replaced by a plate when steaming.
3
While steaming donkey-hide gelatin, stir-fry the prepared black sesame powder and walnut powder until fragrant. After heating the wok, do not add oil, adjust to medium heat, add walnut powder and sesame powder, and stir fry constantly until fragrant, for about 3-5 minutes. Be careful not to stir-fry it, and stir it evenly. The picture shows a quantity of 250 grams each, but actually only half of it.
4
After an hour, steam the donkey-hide glue until it is completely dissolved. Add the stir-fried walnut and black sesame powder. Stir well. Put on a steamer and continue to steam for another hour despite water. Remember to cover it, there is enough water in the steamer.
5
After an hour, turn off the heat, take out the finished gelatin soup, let it cool, and store it in the refrigerator. Note: E-jiao soup should be stored in a closed container and remember to eat it in time. Take a spoonful of warm water every morning and evening. It can also be served with milk.E-jiao soup Make Tips
Aged Ejiao is more effective; the older it is, the more brittle it becomes. New Ejiao has a higher moisture content and is not easy to break. The number of days for soaking Ejiao can be adjusted according to the weather. The colder the weather, the longer it needs to be soaked.
