Ginger Lemon Enzyme

Ginger-lemon enzyme, as the name suggests, is a food made by fermenting ginger and lemon. Enzymes have many functions and effects on the human body. Eating enzymes in moderation can greatly promote human health. It is not difficult to make ginger lemon enzyme. Here we will introduce the production method and nutritional value of ginger lemon enzyme in detail.

1. How to make ginger lemon enzyme

Wash the raw ginger, scrape off the thin layer of skin on the surface, and cut into thin slices.

Peel and slice the lemon.

Place sugar, ginger and lemon in a container in repeated layers. (Basically the bottom layer is sugar, and the top layer should also be covered with sugar.) After about 2 hours, the sugar begins to extract moisture from the ginger and lemon.

On the second day, the top is basically the extracted liquid, and the bottom is the unmelted sugar.

Wash your hands with soap and stir the unmelted sugar to speed up the melting process. Stir twice a day.

A week later, it started bubbling!

After about two weeks, you can see a layer of bubbles on the top. After shaking, the ginger and lemon slowly rise in the liquid accompanied by a lot of bubbles. Then you’ve succeeded!

Finally, use a strainer to filter out the ginger slices, lemon slices and debris, and store the prepared enzyme liquid in a clean container.

Store in a glass jar with a lid in the refrigerator.

2. Nutritional value

1. The ratio of ingredients (fruits or certain vegetables) to sugar is generally 1:1 or 1:1.1.

2. Be sure to use clean and dry chopsticks or spoons when stirring, otherwise it will easily get moldy. It is recommended to use steel chopsticks, which are better than bamboo chopsticks or wooden chopsticks. If the container is large, you can use clean hands to stir it more evenly.

3. You can use rock sugar or granulated sugar. The rock sugar should be broken into smaller pieces so that it is easier to dissolve.
