Why does black sesame need to be steamed and dried nine times?
Although black sesame seeds have many benefits, if sesame seeds are only fried once, they will not be digested, but the human body will suffer.
Bao Puzi, handed down by Taoist Ge Hong in the Jin Dynasty, said: "Sesame is steamed, washed with water to remove foam, and then steamed, and so on for nine times." Only by adopting the ancient method of nine steaming and nine drying can we give full play to the efficacy of black sesame.
Nine steamed and nine sun-dried black sesame balls originated in Jin Dynasty, and Tao Hongjing, a famous Taoist teacher, lamented that "this is the best thing in the eight valleys", which has a history of thousands of years.
"Nine steaming and nine drying" is a common method in the processing of traditional Chinese medicine. Radix Rehmanniae, Radix Angelicae Sinensis, Radix Aconiti Lateralis Preparata and other medicinal materials usually need to be steamed for nine times to foster strengths and avoid weaknesses.
Why steam and sun over and over again?
We usually eat sesame seeds, which are usually fried only once. It is difficult to digest and the human body suffers greatly. After nine steaming, the nutrients of sesame seeds are fully decomposed, and the greasy feeling is greatly reduced, which is easy to be absorbed by the human body.
It takes more than 2 hours to steam each time, and it takes nine times to remove the heat from sesame seeds, so that the processed sesame balls can be absorbed by the human body.
After nine times in the sun, black sesame can get a lot of pure Yang Qi from the sun. Ancient medicine in China believed that it was this pure Yang Qi between heaven and earth that was of great benefit to human body.

Only sesame seeds with such high germination rate can be selected as sesame balls if the seeds are alive. The quality of black sesame seeds is very important, otherwise I'm sorry for the process of steaming and drying.
2. Select sesame seeds and wash them until clean. It's important to soak in clean water. Because there is still a screening process, sesame seeds are washed with a small sieve, and incomplete sesame seeds floating on the water can not be used, only whole sesame seeds in the sieve can be used.
3. Then put it in a steamer and steam it on the stove for 2 hours.
On sunny days, the steam will start for 2 hours at 5: 00 every morning. Be sure to steam it thoroughly. Then put the black sesame seeds in a clean dustpan. (Note that the steamer can't be stacked too high, otherwise the steam won't come up and can't be steamed thoroughly. )
4. Steamed sesame seeds are dried in the sun for a whole day, so that sunlight and Yang Can enter the sesame seeds. Be careful not to spread the sesame seeds too thick to ensure that the sesame seeds at the bottom can bask in the sun. Spread a thin layer, less than 0.5 cm on average. Turn it every 0.5–1hour to ensure that sesame seeds are evenly aired.
When it is completely dry, put it in a steamer for two or three hours the next day. Repeat nine times, no more, no less. This is commonly known as "nine steaming and nine drying"
5. Repeat the above operation eight times, and repeat the above steps nine times, and wash them every time, because you have to remove the floating ones and leave the fine products.

Only black sesame seeds that have been steamed and dried for nine times will be repeatedly pounded into soft, oily and sticky fine powder by a stone mortar through a stone mill. Instead of grinding into sesame paste like ordinary fried sesame seeds.
8. Honey refining: Boil the earth honey in a copper pot. It is necessary to extract impurities, moisture, bacteria and microorganisms from honey to make it more viscous. When refining honey, first boil the honey with high fire, then slowly boil it into "dripping beads" with low fire, and at the same time remove impurities such as beeswax floating on the surface of honey.
9. Fully mix the mashed black sesame powder and refined honey, and mix well after repeated stirring. Let them mix well, soak honey in black sesame seeds and stir well. At this time, black sesame paste is formed.
10. If you want to make a ball, you need to add a step. Mix sesame seeds and honey evenly, add appropriate amount of sesame oil and knead into balls, and make honey pills of about 10g. Roll it, wrap it in wax paper, and then bottle it. In this way, the black sesame honey pill steamed nine times is finished.
