金桔，枝叶繁茂，碧绿的叶子上面点缀一颗颗金色的果实，非常漂亮。一般过年的时候很多人都喜欢买一盆金桔摆放在家里，寓意新年大吉。它不仅具观赏价值，果实还富含维生素C, 对人体有很多好处。所以今天给大家分享一下这道简单又好吃的传统甜点，糖渍金桔。不仅可以开胃，还有预防感冒，能治咳嗽的功效。春天这忽冷忽热的天气，大家注意保护好自己的身体。
做法：
1、金桔清洗干净，用淡盐水浸泡1小时。取出，控干水分。
2、在金桔上划几刀，然后加入白糖腌制12小时。
3、取一个小锅，倒入400 ml 水，放入少许冰糖和腌制好的金桔，大火煮开，转小火熬1小时至汤汁粘稠的状态。（自己喜好的程度。）
4、凉凉，即可食用。吃不完，密封保存至冰箱，由于自己做的没有防腐剂，需尽快食用。
糖的用量根据自己喜欢的程度来酌情增减。
煮好的金桔透明富有光泽，可直接食用，也可以泡茶来喝，软糯酸甜，非常开胃。
looks delicious!
thank you @brothermic
再一次被你的多才多艺折服😀
过奖了。
你有沒試過蜜糖金桔,檸檬,薑泡水喝? 很舒服的感覺.
还没有哦，下次试试，应该能好喝 ，因为我直接吃都觉得很赞。
但真的試蜜糖的話, 不要用熱水, 只用溫或暖水.
熱水+蜜糖=容易肚瀉
好的，谢谢提示。
感觉好像很甜。
嗯，是甜的，还带一点点酸。自己做的，就是甜度可以自己控制。
我还是少糖较好。
哈哈，我们做了刚好相反的，盐渍金桔，炖肉的时候放几个。
是吗？盐渍的我还没做过。等吃完了这些，下次试试盐渍的。^_^
我之前做过草莓酱和腌渍樱花，还有糖桂花～糖渍金桔倒是没有做过呢，谢谢分享做法，周末我就试试看～
这个用微波炉转一下，偶尔还可以当果脯吃。^_^
好想吃你那个腌渍樱花啊，因为我们这边樱花很少，要不然我也留一些保存起来。
还可以拿来做小零食呀？这个好腻害
盐渍樱花其实我拿来泡茶的比较少，这是我拿来保存花朵的方式。一般要用的时候，我会把盐洗掉，然后拿来做芝士蛋糕啊布丁啊什么的时候做配料，等有机会我po上来给大家看😊
对啊，粉粉嫩嫩的樱花甜点肯定迷人极了！
哈哈哈哈，我觉得对于女生来说，粉色真的是无论几岁都会超级钟爱的颜色呢
是的呀。^_^
@helene 糖渍金桔绝对是看家良方～
中华传统美食~
真巧,我今天才吃了金桔 :D
握手。。
I've eaten it. i like the sour
it also tastes fine to me. because it is not too sour and contains a little sweet.
Ohhh really it gives vitamin c nice @helene thank you for giving usefull information 👍😊
so great, i noted that and will try to making soon.
thanks
I'm very glad you will try it. good luck to you !
Thanks, will make at weekend!
This is so unique for me. These fruits are not grown here.
where are you from? It is common fruit in the south of China.
before its i have never seen that fruit, but many also its benefits yes, this may be a hi fruit in tropical climate.
looks good
when we putt it in freezer after adding sugar according to point 4 then again we have to add sugar in water according to point 5 ??
step4, marinated it with sugar in order to remove its sour. you need to put it in a freezer or you can omit it.
step5, add some rock candy when you cook it.
alright...thank you :) can we preserve it for some days ???
yeah, at lest one week.
thats good,thank you @helen :)
wow very good share, thanks for the food post
you are welcome~
有說一定要封存多少日才可以吃嗎？
凉凉可以直接吃，最好在1-2周内吃完，因为自己做的没有防腐剂。
就是只要糖溶了就可以吃？這個好吃，香港買都不太便宜～
对啊，煮完就可以直接吃了。香港广东那边金桔是很常见的吧，也不便宜？
香港好像是一般弄咸咸的那種，甜的反而很少見～
是吗？这个我还真不知道。
是啊。所以想試試你這個～甜甜的我喜歡呢❤️
味道杠杠的
哈哈，就喜欢这个味道。
好吃
不贵，还有益。
哇，好诱人啊！
嘿嘿^_^
好吃的水果加上完美的烹饪简直完美。
酸酸甜甜的，拿来泡水喝很开胃呢。
嗯，美食可以让生活更加多姿多彩。
I will try this. But they once told me it is a Japonese fruit. Or is not?
There are many kumquats growing in the south of China and it has a long history. So, I'm not sure what you said.
Thanks for the information.
看来你不光懂画，还懂的美食呀
谢谢支持，这算不上懂吧。
金桔可以和蜂蜜一起泡水喝，可以生津止渴，饮用后温暖顺气
嗯，确实不错。
It looks delicious but I'm not seen here I will get it because that dish looks very rich I'll use your recipe
