Yellow rice wine 1 kg. Guide to material selection

1, walnut. It is recommended to use walnut with skin, especially paper walnut. Because of the high kernel rate, a catty of walnuts can peel more than 6 kernels. This is not only sanitary but also environmentally friendly. Because walnut kernels are processed in batches in the factory, the sanitary conditions are really hard to compliment.

2, black sesame. Pay attention to the identification of dyed black sesame seeds when buying, and put an end to eating. Black sesame mixed with sand. Guyuan ointment is not only difficult to wash, but also easy to cause tooth damage.

3. Jujube. Buy fresh dried dates with stones. Put an end to eating mildew. Removing the core and processing into jujube paste. Jujube paste is easy to deteriorate and rot in the air and cannot be processed in advance. When making solid paste, you can finally treat the dates. Immediately after removing the core, make Guyuan paste and process it into jujube paste. It is strictly forbidden to use seedless dried dates. Seedless dried jujube is unsanitary in the processing process, and it has to go through the drying process, which reduces the medicinal properties of jujube. This is not a concept with fried dates recommended by Ma Yueling in the book "The Wisdom of Not Being Sick". And preservatives and pesticides are often added during the processing.

4. Ejiao. Choose Dong 'e Ejiao. Please refer to the previous blog post "Follow Me" for specific reasons and identification methods. Although the price is more expensive, the efficacy can be guaranteed. We spend money on health care and eat well when we eat, otherwise it will waste money and harm our health. Our original intention is to preserve our health, not to spoil our health. Therefore, we have worked hard to make Guyuan ointment, which must be authentic. Eat well, or don't eat. Eating bad health is not worth the loss.

5, rock sugar. This is very common, but people often lack specific understanding. Ma Yueling didn't introduce it in detail in the book, so I'll say a few more words here. Rock candy is a crystal copy of sugar. There are white, yellow, red, crimson and other colors, and the crystal is like ice, hence the name rock sugar. Crystal sugar has the best transparent quality, high purity, less impurities, sweet taste, followed by translucency. Rock sugar is sweet and flat, and enters the lungs and spleen; Has the effects of invigorating middle energizer, invigorating qi, regulating stomach and moistening lung; Rock candy can nourish yin and promote fluid production, moisten lung and relieve cough, and has a good auxiliary therapeutic effect on lung dry cough, dry cough without phlegm and expectoration with blood; Can be used for treating cough and asthma, infantile malaria, dysentery, aphtha and toothache caused by lung dryness, lung deficiency and wind-cold fatigue. It can be seen that rock sugar itself does not improve the sweetness of Guyuan ointment, but it has medicinal value. Everyone knows that diabetics can't use it. Chinese medicine believes that eating too much sweets will affect appetite and digestion, leading to diarrhea and bloating, especially for patients with damp heat.

6. Yellow rice wine. What yellow wine should I use to make Guyuan ointment? A friend in Baidu asked this question, and I took pains to answer it in detail. As a result, this friend not only didn't adopt it, but also chose a wrong answer as the best answer. I quote the original text directly here.

Yellow rice wine is warm, can disperse and sublimate, and can nourish yin. Divergence can put medicine into the whole body! Therefore, general nourishing Chinese medicine and Chinese medicine for promoting blood circulation and dredging collaterals can be taken with yellow wine! Drugs that clear away heat, cool blood and detoxify are generally not taken with yellow wine! Come with me. Yangshengtang Taobao shop uses semi-sweet yellow wine to make Guyuan paste. Let's first introduce the classification of yellow rice wine: yellow rice wine is divided into the following four types according to the sugar content:

(1) dry yellow rice wine: "dry" means that the sugar content in the wine is low, the total sugar content is lower than or equal to 15.0 g/L, the taste is mellow, fresh and refreshing, and there is no peculiar smell.

(2) Semi-dry yellow rice wine: "Semi-dry" means that all the sugar in the wine has not been fermented into alcohol, and some sugar remains. In the production of semi-dry yellow rice wine, the low amount of water added is equivalent to increasing the amount of rice. The total sugar content is 15.0 g/L ~ 40.0 g/L, so it is also called "rice wine". Most of the high-grade yellow rice wine in China belongs to this type, which is mellow, soft, fresh and refreshing, and has no peculiar smell.

(3) Semi-sweet yellow wine: This wine has a unique technology. The finished yellow wine is added to the fermented mash instead of water, which makes the alcohol concentration in the fermented mash reach a high level in the initial stage of saccharification and fermentation, and inhibits the growth rate of yeast to a certain extent. Due to the small number of yeast, the sugar produced in the fermented mash can not be converted into alcohol, so the finished wine has a high sugar content. The total sugar content is 40. 1g/L ~ 100g/L, the taste is mellow, sweet and refreshing, the wine body is harmonious and there is no peculiar smell.

(4) Sweet yellow rice wine: This kind of wine is generally drenched with rice, mixed with medicinal liquor, and first made into sweet distiller's grains. When saccharification reaches a certain level, 40-50% rice wine or distiller's grains are added to inhibit microbial saccharification and fermentation, and the total sugar content is higher than100g/L. The taste is fresh and sweet, full-bodied, with harmonious body and no peculiar smell.

Semi-sweet yellow rice wine is a very important auxiliary material or "drug primer" in medicine. Semi-sweet yellow wine is often used for soaking and cooking some Chinese herbal medicines or preparing pills and various medicinal liquor. According to statistics, there are more than 70 kinds of medicinal liquor that need to be prepared based on semi-sweet yellow rice wine.

Another function of semi-sweet rice wine is seasoning. Semi-sweet yellow rice wine has moderate alcohol content, rich flavor and rich flavor substances such as amino acids. People like to use semi-sweet yellow rice wine as seasoning. When cooking meat dishes, especially mutton and fresh fish, adding a little can not only remove the fishy smell, but also increase the taste.

To sum up, semi-sweet yellow wine is the best way to make Guyuan ointment. The representative of semi-sweet rice wine is Jimo rice wine. Produced in Jimo, Qingdao, Shandong. Shandong Jimo old wine is a typical representative of millet yellow wine in the north. Come with me. The Guyuan paste made by Yangshengtang (more than 100 miles away from downtown Jimo) is made of excellent Jimo old wine.
