How long will the bird's nest stew?

An ordinary white bird's nest of about 8 grams takes 4-6 hours to foam.

The stewing time should not exceed 30 minutes, usually after the water is boiled 15-20 minutes. Stewing for too long will hydrate and affect the taste. If the quality of Huangyan is good, it needs to be stewed for about 30- 1 hour, and the specific time can be judged according to the shape of bird's nest stew. Usually, the stewed bird's nest is liquid, silky, not easy to disperse, and emits a faint protein fragrance, indicating that the bird's nest is well cooked. If the bird's nest is still crystal clear, the silk strips are clear and there is no soft stew, it means that it needs to be stewed.

The bird's nest is actually the nest of Swift or Jin Siyan, which is made by mixing the saliva of Swift or Jin Siyan with other substances. Bird's nest, mostly built on cliffs in subtropical or tropical areas, is a precious and excellent tonic. It contains a variety of essential amino acids, phosphorus, sulfur, calcium, potassium and other ingredients, and is rich in collagen. It has high nutritional value and many functions such as beauty beauty.

The main producing areas of bird's nest

From the Philippines in the east to the caves on the desert island near the coast of Myanmar in the west, Indonesia, Malaysia, Sandakan, Singapore, Thailand and the South China Sea islands are the majority. Among them, Indonesia has the best bird's nest quality and the largest bird's nest output, followed by Malaysia, because the weather and environment are most suitable for swallows to live together. According to statistics, by the end of 20 10, Indonesia's bird's nest accounted for 85%-90% of the global bird's nest production, Malaysia accounted for 5%- 10%, Thailand 3%, Vietnam, the Philippines and other places about 2% (refer to the data of Hong Kong Trade Department for several years).

A subspecies of Jin Siyan in Java, namely cfuciphagemmani, was once collected in Yannan Island and can be used to make edible bird's nest. Jin Siyan has a short mouth, which is produced in the southwest of China and the southeast of Quincy. The earliest works with detailed records are Materia Medica and Ben Feng Jingyuan. There are six kinds of bird's nest in Jin Siyan that can produce bird's nest. The saliva secreted by various birds of Swift (Swift Family) and their down is mixed and condensed on cliffs or farmhouses.
