Candied bergamot
The fruit of Buddha's Hand has a strange shape, with a cracked top, split and curled like a fist or spread like a finger, which resembles the fingers of a Buddha statue, hence its name. Bergamot has a bright yellow color, a fragrant fragrance, and white flesh, but it tastes bitter and should not be eaten raw. Slice the bergamot and make tea. The fragrance is astonishing. Its taste is pungent, bitter, sour, and warm in nature. It can regulate qi and relieve pain, resolve phlegm and relieve cough, soothe the liver and stomach, strengthen the stomach and eliminate food, and is good at awakening the spleen and appetizing, and harmonizing the middle and regulating qi. Buddha's hand placed in the room can make the room fragrant. It is mostly made into tea or wine for drinking. Eating it directly is a real chore. However, once by chance, I discovered that Buddha's hand can actually be eaten this way. After candied and steamed, the white flesh becomes transparent. It is soft and glutinous when bitten in the mouth, and bursts of fragrance penetrate into every orifice. The fresh air is rising, and it is slightly bitter, very light. . .

Bergamot Jam
The later I got, the more I felt like I had found a hard job for myself. I once made candied bergamot and it felt really good. It's bergamot season again, and I suddenly wanted to make jam from it, and I was extremely greedy and ordered three of them. In the imagination, it should be to beat the bergamot into a puree, and then boil it over a low fire until it gets old and the pectin dissolves into a viscous form, that is, everything is fine. However, when you really get through it, you realize that growing old with you requires so much patience, and your patience has long been exhausted in the mooncakes. So, I quickly changed my mind, used high heat to remove the excess water, transferred it to a water-proof electric stew pot, and let the stew pot slowly steam and stew. After two or three hours, pour the fragrant paste into the pot and simmer over medium-low heat until it becomes a thick, sticky mud that is not easy to flow. The effect seems to be the same. . .
