Homemade hawthorn berries
Overview
When I went to buy fruit yesterday, I suddenly felt that it was already November. Time really flew by. Looking at the fresh hawthorns in the bamboo basket, I couldn't help but swallow. I already love sour food, so I boldly bought a pound of hawthorns and went home to prepare for a feast. I took one and put it in my mouth. Oh my God! It was too sour, and my mother couldn’t stand it either, but she couldn’t throw it away, so she thought of making a sweet and sour hawthorn sauce!

Ingredients
Steps
-
Wash the hawthorn with clean water and soak it in light salt water for about 20 minutes. Remove the stem and core, and remove the small seeds inside. It is best to break it open and take a look. Maybe some of the pulp has rotted, and the rotten ones cannot be used.
-
250g rock sugar, I used rock sugar, which tastes better. You can also use small pieces of rock sugar. Large pieces of rock sugar must be broken with a hammer, otherwise they will not melt easily.
-
Mix the rock sugar and hawthorn together, put it in the microwave on high heat for 4 minutes, take it out and stir it, continue on high heat for 6 minutes. Take it out and stir evenly.
-
Let cool and serve. The taste is sour and sweet, a bit like the taste of fruit peel. Hawthorn is an appetizer and promotes body fluids. It is rich in vitamin C and has anti-cancer and anti-cancer effects. Of course, you need to eat it in moderation. This is a good snack.
