Passion fruit peels for preserved fruit

The peel of passion fruit can also be made into preserved fruit, which tastes very delicious and sour and sweet. The method of making preserved fruit from passion fruit peel is also relatively simple. Cut the fresh passion fruit from the top with a knife, then pick out the seeds and juice inside, put the passion fruit peel into rock sugar, wait until the rock sugar is completely melted, and then boil it. It is good for your body to blow air properly at ordinary times.

How to make preserved fruit from passion fruit peel

1. Cut the top of the fresh passion fruit with a knife, scoop out the seeds and juice inside with a spoon and pour them into a sealed jar, add two pounds of rock sugar. It is best to shake it up and down a few times every day to make it evenly distributed, and wait until all the rock sugar melts. Every time you drink it, you only need to add cold boiled water, it tastes sour and sweet, and it is so delicious!

2. After making the fruit nectar, use a peeler to peel the remaining fruit peel to reveal the purple-red flesh shell, then cut the flesh shell into two parts, use a stainless steel spoon to scrape off the white residue inside to make it smooth, and set aside.

3. Cut the collected flesh into strips. The peels I cut weighed about two pounds. Be careful not to cut it too thin, as it will be hard to chew after being made into preserved fruits.

3. Non-stick pan (it must be non-stick! Otherwise, it will make you cry if it gets burnt. I use a Tupperware frying pan). Put 600 grams of rock sugar at the bottom, pour the peel on top, cover the pot, and use the induction cooker at 300 watts. When you see the sugar juice at the bottom, turn to high heat at 1600 watts. This process is easy to get burnt, so you must turn it frequently. When the rock sugar is completely melted, turn to medium heat at 600 watts, continue to turn it frequently, and slowly turn it over until you can no longer see the sugar juice. When there is basically no sugar juice, turn to the lowest temperature of 120 watts, spread the fruit pulp against the edge of the pot, do not cover the pot, and bake it slowly. No need to stir-fry. Such a low temperature will not get burnt! Bake for about one or two hours until the fruit pulp is dry and you can turn off the heat!

5. The whole cooking process takes about three or four hours, and it requires a relatively high level of skillet quality. I used a Tupperware wok. You need to cover the pot at the beginning, but not at the rest of the time. Before the syrup dries, you must be diligent and turn it over frequently!

Precautions for eating passion fruit

1. People with digestive system diseases or poor stomach should eat with caution.

2. Passion fruit seeds are difficult to separate from the passion fruit, so when eating the fruit, you will inevitably eat the seeds. Some people may worry about the adverse effects of eating too many passion fruit seeds on the body. However, the seeds of passion fruit are edible and can add a crispy taste. So if you accidentally eat passion fruit seeds, don’t worry too much.

3. Passion fruit should not be stored in a sealed container. It can be kept fresh in the refrigerator but should not be frozen. It is best to store the fruit naked in a ventilated and dry place to prevent it from deteriorating.
