(2) key points of the process

Use a vibrating screen to select almonds of uniform size and pick out insect food, moldy almonds and other impurities.

Soak in 60 ℃ warm water for more than 5 days, change water every day to prevent almond peel from falling off. Soak the water, drain, and pick out the peeled almonds.

Put the almonds in a sugar solution with a concentration of 75%, cook for 15 minutes for 20 minutes, and remove from the heat, the concentration of the sugar solution should be more than 75%. The sugar solution is made of 55 kg granulated sugar, 30 kg sugar and 25 kg water. The amount of water added should be determined according to the water content of Yee sugar.

Remove the almonds, drain some of the sugar, spread out and cool to 20: 30 ℃, deep-fry. Put the almonds in the basket and put the almonds in an oil pan with a temperature of 150 to 160 ℃. Deep-fry the almonds evenly without scorching, amber and shiny. The fried almonds are quickly cooled to 60 ℃, and turn a few times to prevent adhesion. Cool to below 50 ℃ and shake the oil.

Deep-fry the cooled almonds, centrifuge the oil for 2 to 3 minutes, and remove some of the oil from the surface. After weighing, put it into a screw bottle.

Points for attention

Strictly control the frying temperature to prevent it from being too high or too low. Keep the oil pan clean, change the new oil each time, and add antioxidants to the oil, such as propyl gallate, about 0.5 grams per kilogram of oil. Frying to canning and sealing should be completed within 50 minutes. After cooking, the sugar should be cooled to room temperature before frying, otherwise, the sugar is easy to dissolve in the oil. The cooling temperature is too low and it is easy to agglomerate. In the preparation of sugar solution, reducing sugar should account for more than 50% of the total sugar, and the product must be cooled to 60-70 ℃ before turning to prevent sand return.
