Question 2: When can I put rock sugar in stewed bird's nest? How long can I put the stewed bird's nest rock sugar? When can I put rock sugar in stewed bird's nest?
There are two factions: bird's nest stewed with rock sugar; Stew bird's nest first, then add rock sugar.
The second method is suggested, that is, the bird's nest is stewed separately first, and then the rock sugar is added. Why?
1, natural bird's nest, the word natural is very important, we buy bird's nest to pursue nature, why not pursue nature when stewing? Therefore, it is recommended that bird's nest be stewed separately!
2. Why do you want to add rock sugar? Many friends have completely misunderstood the purpose of stewing bird's nest with rock sugar. Adding rock sugar is only for seasoning, not to say that rock sugar bird's nest has higher nutrition and better efficacy.
The following is an improved scheme:
1, the bird's nest is stewed separately;
2. Rock sugar is boiled into iced sugar water;
3. After cooking, pour some rock sugar water into the bird's nest and you can eat it.
In the same way, other different bird's nest cuisines also suggest that bird's nest be stewed separately, with auxiliary materials prepared separately and finally eaten together.
The stewed bird's nest is sealed in the refrigerator. If you can't eat it all at once, you can put it in a glass bottle or porcelain bottle and keep it sealed in the refrigerator. Generally speaking, the shelf life can be as long as ten days. But there is a premise that must be remembered: when stewing bird's nest, you can't add rock sugar, otherwise it will easily cause water to melt during storage.
Every time you take bird's nest, you must use a dry spoon to avoid bringing external bacteria into the bottle and causing deterioration. Of course, if it's not too much trouble, you can also choose to pack according to the amount you eat each time and take the amount of one meal at a time.

Question 3: When the bird's nest rock sugar is put together to stew bird's nest, it is the same whether the rock sugar and bird's nest are put together or stewed, and there is no difference. In the origin of our Malaysian bird's nest, if the stewed bird's nest is really for health, there is no rock sugar, because rock sugar is an acidic food. You can put pure honey instead of rock sugar, but honey must be placed after cold cutting of bird's nest to avoid destroying the effective components of honey.
The invention provides a method for preparing stewed rock sugar bird's nest.
Method 1:
Ingredients: about 5 grams of bird's nest (about 50 grams after soaking), and appropriate amount of rock sugar.
Stewing method: steam the foamed bird's nest in water, boil the water in the outer pot for 20 minutes, and add rock sugar for 5 minutes.

It is generally believed that the reason why rock sugar is not put in the first place is that rock sugar will cause the sugar water to become sour or hot. In fact, when stewing, put good quality rock sugar first, which has no effect on the sugar water. In the origin of our bird's nest, when the canned bird's nest is stewed with crystal sugar, crystal sugar and water are directly added to the soaked bird's nest for stewing.
Question 5: Do you need to cook rock sugar before stewing bird's nest with rock sugar? There are two ways to stew bird's nest with rock sugar. One is to add rock sugar directly when putting it into bird's nest, without boiling rock sugar, but you must know the amount of sugar. First of all, according to the gram weight of bird's nest, 1g dry bird's nest is added with water 50c.c. So when you stew 3g dry bird's nest, the amount of water added is 150c.c, and the rock sugar is generally 10 to 15g (try the sweetness of sugar first, and the sweetness of each brand is different), so try the sweetness first every time.
Second, rock sugar should be stewed in advance until it melts. Because of personal requirements for sweetness, several people stew a large bowl of bird's nest, some people want to be sweet, and some people want to be light. When catering to everyone's tastes, rock sugar can be cooked in advance.
Question 6: When stewing bird's nest, can rock sugar be put together with bird's nest? More convenient, crystal sugar can be completely dissolved. The stewed bird's nest in the origin of our bird's nest is stewed with ingredients and rock sugar. In addition, the manufacturers of canned bird's nest with rock sugar also put bird's nest and rock sugar into a powerful bottle and stew them directly.
There are two stewing methods for rock sugar bird's nest:
First, you don't need to cook rock sugar. You can add it directly when you put it into the bird's nest, but you must know the amount of sugar. First of all, according to the gram weight of bird's nest, 1g dry bird's nest is added with water 50c.c. So when you stew 3g dry bird's nest, the amount of water added is 150c.c, and the rock sugar is generally 10 to 15g (try the sweetness of sugar first, and the sweetness of each brand is different), so try the sweetness first every time.

Question 7: How long does it take to stew bird's nest with rock sugar? Eating bird's nest is good for beauty.
Recently, the sun is hot and spicy, and people who cherish the skin must have a headache: under the impact of ultraviolet rays and temperature heat waves, the skin will inevitably deteriorate. Bird's nest has always been considered as a nourishing food. It is neither cold nor dry, and can be eaten all year round. Now many people start to make bird's nest at home. In fact, the cooking method of bird's nest is very simple-stew, and the most important thing is the whole treatment process. Chen Weizhong, the chef of abalone with wings in Lin Ji, introduced the handling methods of bird's nest and how to eat several kinds of bird's nest, just to maintain beauty in summer.
pick and choose
Bird's nest has been a delicacy on our table since the Ming and Qing Dynasties. Originally mainly produced in Indonesia, Thailand, Malaysia, Vietnam and other Southeast Asian countries. Edible bird's nest is actually the nest of flying swallows. Although technically speaking, there are five kinds of swift, we can divide it into three kinds according to bird's nest: official swallow, hairy swallow and grass swallow, and then divide it into swallow, strip, cake, broken swallow and broken swallow according to its shape.
Yan Guan: The bird's nest is built purely with saliva, and fine hairs are only attached during the nesting process, so the bird's nest is high in purity and clean, and keeps the shape of the lamp.
Mao Yan: Swallows use saliva and body hair to build their nests, and the two materials account for half, so the bird's nest can only be broken to make swallow cakes and swallows, and it is often bleached with hydrogen peroxide during processing.
Grass swallow: Bird's nest uses weeds as nesting materials, and only uses saliva to bond weeds, so the bird's nest content is very small, and the processing process also needs bleaching.
Therefore, the bird's nest sold in the market is mainly official swallow. The viscous liquid secreted by the throat of adult Jin Siyan is condensed, which is generally irregular half-moon or block-shaped, and some middle parts are sunken into pockets, which are hard and brittle, translucent, with mirror luster and slightly angular texture. There are three kinds of bird's nest sold in the market: Hongyan (blood swallow), Longyayan, Bai Yan and Huangyan. Among them, Huang Yan is rare and is a good product in bird's nest. White swallow lamp is white, red swallow lamp is crimson, and the price of red swallow lamp is more expensive than that of Bai Yan lamp. It is best to use a complete cup-shaped bird's nest when buying, and the texture of the edges and broken swallows is relatively poor. Also, the fewer feathers in the swallow cup, the better.
Because of the high value of bird's nest, many fake and shoddy products are mixed in the market. Common fake materials include agar, fish glue, pigskin, tremella and so on.
The identification of true and false bird's nest depends on seeing, smelling and pulling. At first glance, bird's nest should be a filiform structure, not a bird's nest composed of sheet structure. The master also reminded that when buying bird's nest, it is best not to be too greedy and yellow in color. The second smell: those with special smell, fishy smell or greasy smell are fakes; Three pulls: Take a small piece of bird's nest and soak it in water. When it's soft, take the silk to pull it. Poor elasticity. Pull it and it will break. Rub it with your fingers. If it has no elasticity, then it is a fake!
Cooking method
The best way to cook bird's nest is to stew it on water with slow fire, but it is also important to prepare it in advance.
Cleaning bird's nest, mainly soaking. The water that has just been soaked for 1-2 hours should be poured out, and impurities such as Pteris multifida should be cleaned during this period; Then soak in clear water for 1-2 hours. At this time, it is necessary to control the amount of water soaked, generally to reach the surface of bird's nest. Finally, even the soaked water is stewed with slow fire to keep the original flavor and nutrition of bird's nest.
When bird's nest is badly needed, it can also be soaked in warm water for 30-40 minutes, but this quick method is not suitable for blood swallow.
The stewing time is determined by two factors. First, it depends on the quality of bird's nest itself, the thickness and humidity of bird's nest. It usually takes 6-8 hours. If it's a blood swallow, it takes twice as long. Second, it depends on people's physique. In order to facilitate absorption, the elderly, patients and other people with weak constitution spend more time stewing bird's nest than the conventional 1 hour, that is, 7-9 hours.
The best time is when the finished product is soft, smooth, elastic, glittering and translucent, and soft and continuous when clamped.
