Steps

1. 1 The key to removing astringency is peeling and soaking. Use a knife to remove the outermost layer of pomelo peel, leaving only the white part, which must be removed clearly. Then put the pomelo peel in the pot, boil the water for 5 minutes, pour it in cold water, wring out the water, and then soak it in cold water for a day. It is enough to change the water several times in the middle. When changing the water, remember to wring out the pomelo peel before changing the water. This is pomelo peel that has been soaked for a day. It is a bit transparent and very beautiful.
