Main Ingredients

Yanzhi Mei 1000g

Auxiliary Ingredients

Rock sugar or honey 500-1000g

Seasonings

salt 5 spoons

Attention: The entire process should be oil-free, and sealing should be done without oil or water. Mature plums: rock sugar (2:1) Depending on personal taste, you can add more rock sugar. Green plum: rock sugar, with a ratio of at least 1:1, not bitter.

Step 1 . Pick out the plums that are too soft or damaged, and rinse them with water once or twice.

Step 2 . Put salt water and soak, mainly to remove the bitterness of plums. Soak for two hours or overnight.

Step 3 . Picking plum blossom stems, at this time, the salt water is a bit bitter. The specific bitterness depends on the quality of the plums and the density of the salt water.

Step 4 . Wash the plums again (to remove the salty taste) and choose the ones that are too soft and bad. Dry in a well ventilated and cool place, do not dry in the sun.

Step 5 . After drying and freezing in the refrigerator for a day, I sealed it with a layer of rock sugar and a layer of plums. You can also use this size directly without freezing.

Step 6 . This is what the New Year will look like in 8 hours. Keep in a cool and ventilated place. Don't worry about it.

Step 7 . All night long, the big jar is rock sugar and the small jar is honey. It's purely a curiosity experiment.

Step 8 . A week later, the rock sugar had completely melted and the plums were wrinkled. The small bubbles on the surface were produced by fermentation, which produced a slight alcohol smell. At this time, it was necessary to exhaust the air every day and flip the plums up and down to prevent the upper layer from spoiling. The rock sugar was soaked relatively clearly, with a sour taste and a little alcohol smell, and basically no bitterness. It was considered half a success.

Step 9 . When soaked in honey, the fermentation is more intense. In addition to acidity and alcohol aroma, there is also the unique floral and fruity aroma of honey. The taste is strong, but it is not transparent and cloudy.
