Fish every year (how to make hawthorn cake)

Overview

First of all, I pay tribute to my goddess Haiyan. The recipe comes from her hawthorn cake. I have made it twice myself, because each time I bought more than 500 grams after removing the core, and the recipe never matched with Haiyan's recipe, so I had to try changing the recipe myself, and the taste was good. My family likes to eat sweet and sour food. Hawthorn cake softens the blood vessels and has a moderate sour and sweet taste. It is a good dessert after meals.

Ingredients

Steps

1. 1 Peel and wash fresh hawthorn.

   

2. 2 What I made today was 517 grams of pitted hawthorn, used as raw material.

   

3. 3 200g rock sugar.

   

4. 4 Add 500 grams of cold boiled water and start cooking hawthorn over medium heat.

   

5. 5 After the rock sugar has basically melted, start stirring with a spoon and gradually crush the hawthorn. The soup begins to turn red.

   

6. 6 If you find that the soup is still a little hanging around the edges and bubbles are constantly coming out around the pot, you can turn off the heat.

   

7. 7 You need to take a spoonful and put it in the iron drying net to start sifting the hawthorn. You can use a small spoon to continuously crush the hawthorn and squeeze out the hawthorn juice.

   

8. 8 Finally got these hawthorn juice.

   

9. 9 Cut the isinglass sheets into small pieces and soak them in cold water until soft.

   

10. 10 Then pour away the excess water and melt the isinglass sheets over low heat.

    

11. 11 First, scoop a spoonful of hawthorn juice into the fish gelatin sheet and mix it evenly. Then pour most of the hawthorn juice into it and mix evenly. I weighed the hawthorn juice after adding fish gelatin: 1475-970 (weight of egg beater) = 505 grams, which is the weight of hawthorn juice.

    

12. 12 The first time I used a wood mold and a silicone mold, the wood mold release was damaged, but the silicone mold was fine. This time I followed Haiyan and bought a plastic mold, which is easier to use. Find a bowl to fix the mold, pour in the hawthorn juice, and put it in the refrigerator to chill. I refrigerated it overnight before unmolding it.

    

13. 13 When demoulding, use a hair dryer to blow along the edge a few times, and then use your hands to slightly heat the back of the fish, and it will be easier to demould. The beautiful hawthorn cake is ready.
