How to dry dried wax gourd

Wax gourd drying process:

1, cleaning and peeling

Wash and dry the wax gourd, peel it off, and don't throw it away. Drying in the sun is the wax gourd tea for losing weight, eliminating dampness and diuresis.

Step 2 go to the melon pulp

Cut the wax gourd in half and take out all the pulp in the wax gourd. If the wax gourd is ripe, wash it with clear water and dry it before frying. After the pulp of winter melon is taken out, wash it again.

3. Cut into pieces; Cut into small pieces

Cut the wax gourd into small pieces. Please pay attention. If the cut slices are big and thick, it will be very troublesome to dry them in the sun. Once the middle is turbid, it may be moldy. I suggest you cut the melon into long strips, so that it can dry faster.

4. Drying treatment

When you are in the sun, you can't finish it in one day. Put the wax gourd blocks directly into the house in the afternoon and move out to dry the next day. In the afternoon, the wax gourd blocks dried up, and all of them were tied up with ropes and hung in the tuyere.
