How to make dried lychee? It's delicious

Dried litchi can be eaten directly, or its flavor can be improved by soaking in water, cooking Congee, stewing, and making desserts. Dried lychee is rich in sugar and minerals, and consuming it in moderation can help replenish energy, but it is important to control intake and avoid overheating. The simplest way to consume dried lychee is to soak it in water. Take an appropriate amount of dried lychee and soak it in warm water for about ten minutes. After the flesh softens, drink it. The water will blend in the sweet taste of lychee, making it suitable for summer heat relief or as a daily drink.

For those with weak gastrointestinal function, it is recommended to chop the dried lychee into small pieces before cooking, as it is easier to digest and absorb.

Paired with ingredients such as chicken, pork, or Tremella fuciformis, the sweet taste of dried lychee seeps into the soup after simmering over low heat, reducing the need for additional seasonings. The stewing time should be controlled within two hours to avoid excessive loss of nutrients. People with a constitution that is too hot or prone to internal heat symptoms should reduce their frequency of consumption, or pair them with heat clearing ingredients such as lilies and lotus seeds to balance their properties. Dried lychee is widely used in making desserts and can be used as an ingredient for ice cream, cakes, yogurt, and other foods. Chop the dried lychee and sprinkle it on the surface of the dessert, or mix it with the ingredients to enhance its natural sweetness and fruity aroma.
