Donkey hide gelatin cake: a traditional way to make it look like flowers

Introduction:

"Ejiao, a famous medicine for thousands of years, originated in Dong'e, under the rule of Dongchangfu (now Liaocheng), where Yushi's hometown is Liaocheng, Shandong Province. Liaocheng, known as Dongchangfu in ancient times, is rich by the Grand Canal. Ejiao was first recorded in Shennong's herbal classic of Han Dynasty. It has a history of more than 2500 years. Shennong's, Zhang Zhongjing's and Li Shizhen's medical experts all believe that Ejiao is a good tonic. Cao Zhi once wrote "flying dragon chapter" for the king of Dong'e, who often ate donkey hide gelatin: "teach me fresh medicine, which was made by the emperor. Teach me to take it, and replenish the brain." Ejiao, ginseng and pilose antler are called three treasures of traditional Chinese medicine. It can be taken in all seasons. Taking it for a long time can lighten the body, replenish qi, prolong life, improve immunity, beautify the face and resist fatigue. Ejiao was first used as imperial medicine in the palace. However, this small step from inside to outside the palace has also become a big step in Ejiao's thousand year journey. Most of the credit for Ejiao's entering ordinary people's home is due to Bai Pu, a dramatist in the early Ming Dynasty. Wutong, a poet who had been in the war time in the late Song Dynasty, had been in the ancient Liaocheng for 1 years. The poem was written in the poem, and the drama was written in the name of "the autumn night phoenix trees on the brocade flowers". It describes Tang Minghuang and Yang's food Ejiao, "a bottle of Ejiao, a sesame, a white rice stuffed with red sauce, a pink cheek, a smile, and a smile in the early spring scenery." Look, it moistens the youth, keeps the age of heaven, and has capital. " In the late Yuan Dynasty, this recipe became more and more popular, involving the custom of marrying a daughter to marry donkey hide gelatin. The main raw materials of Ejiao cake are Ejiao, walnut kernel, black sesame, rock sugar, red jujube, yellow rice wine and wolfberry. It not only has the functions of nourishing blood and Yin, nourishing health care, but also has the functions of beauty, delaying aging and enhancing human immunity. These years, Yushi has been making donkey hide gelatin paste every year. My friend asked me to make this kind of donkey hide gelatin cake together during the winter solstice. "
