How to make drunken dates?

Dates are a very sweet fruit and can also be dried and eaten as dried fruit. Dates have a particularly high nutritional value and are an excellent ingredient for nourishing the body. Dates can also be made into a variety of delicious foods. For example, sour dates are a very popular delicacy with just the right acidity, which is very suitable for women's taste needs. Let’s take a look at the explanation of how to make drunken dates.

Drunken dates have both the sweet fragrance of dates and the rich aroma of wine, and they can be preserved for a relatively long time. They are one of the favorite ingredients of many people. But the materials people usually use to make drunken dates are mostly fresh dates, and they can no longer be made after the fresh dates are off the market.

1. Put the prepared dried dates in a pot and add water to cook. The dried dates must be carefully selected and must not have any insect bites or scars. When cooking, turn off the heat and take out the dates as soon as the pot boils. Never cook the dates.

2. Take out the cooked dates and remove the moisture. Put an appropriate amount of pure water in the prepared white wine and mix well. Then put the dried dates after removing the moisture in the diluted white wine and put it into the prepared container.

3. Seal the container and store it in a cool and ventilated place. After ten days, the dry dates inside will absorb a lot of water and become plump. They will also absorb some of the white wine and become rich in wine aroma. At this time, the homemade drunken dates are ready to be eaten.

Notes on making drunken dates:

1. When making drunken dates, you must choose dry dates of good quality, and the liquor must be pure grain liquor with an alcohol content of more than 60 degrees. When diluting the liquor, you must use purified water instead of ordinary tap water, otherwise the drunken dates will easily deteriorate and change in taste.

2. After the drunken dates are made, they can be stored in white wine, but they must be eaten as soon as possible after opening, otherwise the alcohol contained in the drunken dates will evaporate, causing the drunken dates to rot and deteriorate quickly, making them inedible.

3. Jujube contains a large amount of fermented acid. Therefore, you cannot eat it in large quantities at one time, otherwise it will bring certain side effects to the body.
