Let's take a look at how plums are processed
Plum juice
- 250 grams of plums are soaked in salt water for half an hour, and then rinsed clean with running water
- Add 900 grams of water to the pot, then add 150 grams of sugar
- Bring to a boil to dissolve the sugar, then add the washed plums
- After boiling, reduce the heat and simmer for 10 to 15 minutes
- Put the plum juice in the refrigerator for an hour to drink better

Plum wine
- 400 grams of plums are soaked in salt water for about 20 minutes, and you can rinse them clean with water
- Dry the washed plums until all the moisture is gone
- Prepare a dry and oil-free bottle
- Pour 500 grams of white liquor into the bottle
- Then add the washed plums and 150 grams of sugar
- It is best to arrange the sugar and plums in layers
Plum wine
Soaking plums requires adding sugar, which can improve the taste and reduce sourness. If you like sour plums, you can omit the white sugar. Plum wine takes 20 days to drink, and if you want to extend the shelf life of plum wine, we can filter out the plums after 20 days, and seal the plum wine
How to clean plums
Plums contain an antibacterial peptide that attracts fruit flies. Therefore, soaking and rinsing are necessary to clean them. You can add salt, baking soda, and starch to stimulate the fruit flies. At home, we mainly use salt water to soak plums so that the flies run out themselves
- Pay attention to the soaking timeAbout 20 minutesIt's enough. If the soaking time is too long, the nutrients of plums will be lost, and the taste will also deteriorate
- Shake the plums with a chopstick from time to timeLet the plums be fully in contact with the salt waterAfter soaking with salt water, rinse with running water
- Don't put freshly bought plums directly into the refrigerator. First soak them in salt water to remove insects, then put them into the refrigerator, otherwise the insects will be frozen and won't come out when soaked in salt water
- Everyone loves to eat plums, welcome to leave comments and exchanges.
