The invention discloses a
pickling method of
helianthus tuberosus. The
pickling method comprises the following steps of adding water to
siraitia grosvenorii and
lotus leaves, and performing boiling so as to obtain a soup base; then putting fresh
helianthus tuberosus into the soup base, soaking the fresh
helianthus tuberosus in the soup base, and performing draining; uniformly mixing the processed helianthus tuberosus with
hot peppers, Chinese prickly ash and rose sirup, adding rice
wine, and performing stirring so as to obtain a mixture; and leaving the mixture to stand, placing the mixture after standing into a clay
jar which is dry and clean, spreading a layer of vegetable leaves on
mixed materials, spreading and stuffing Pu'er tea between the vegetable leaves and an opening of the clay
jar, and performing natural
fermentation for several months so as to obtain finished products. The pickled helianthus tuberosus is delicious and unique in mouth feel, has special crispness,
sweetness, hot taste and mellow fragrance of the Pu'er tea, and can stimulate
appetite, promote
gastric secretion, help
digestion and remove heat to cool blood. All the raw materials are effectively matched, so that the pickled helianthus tuberosus is easier to be tasty and attractive in color and maintains certain crispness. Through detection, when the clay
jar is opened and the pickled helianthus tuberosus is eaten, the pickled helianthus tuberosus does not contain
nitrite, after the clay jar is opened, the guarantee period of the pickled helianthus tuberosus is as long as 1 year, besides, during the guaranteed period, the
nitrite is not generated, and the pickled helianthus tuberosus is free from
mildew, stable in
flavor, unchanged in color and lasting in crispness.
