Earth Element Processing Method

At present, there are two kinds of drying methods commonly used: drying and drying. No matter which method is used, the heat is mainly used to remove the moisture in the insect body. The water content of the flagpole paper is about 5%. Of course, it is better to contain no moisture. It is possible to avoid moldy rot and deterioration due to too much moisture, which is convenient for storage and use.

The processing method is: first remove the impurities from the collected insects, and then hungry it for a day to digest the food in the body, excrete excrement to make it fast, so that it is easy to process preservation, but also help to improve medicine Use value. The worms that had been hungry for a day were rinsed with water to remove impurities from the body surface. The rinsed worms were then soaked in boiling water for 3 minutes to 5 minutes, and they were stunned. Remove and wash with water, spread on bamboo blinds or flat plates, and expose them to sunlight for 3 days - 5 days. Dry and shiny. The body is flat and not broken. Finally, the dried body is placed in a sealed glass container or plastic bag and kept in place. Where the conditions permit, the hot body can be washed and put into an electric constant temperature oven and baked. Adjust the temperature to 35°C---50°C. After the insect body is dry, it can be dried. When drying, it must gradually rise from a low temperature to a high temperature, so that when the water in the insect body is completely removed, it will not scorch the body surface and affect the medicinal quality of the body.

In case of rainy days and no oven, use a wok to dry. The hot-washed body is placed in a wire mesh, basket, placed in a pot and baked at a baking temperature of about 50° C., and it is constantly turned during baking to make it evenly heated to prevent baking. Some people put the worm body directly into the iron pot, fry it with a shovel, and dry the insect. This drying method not only makes it easy to scorch the worm body, but also easily damages the worm body and reduces the quality of the worm body.

In addition, when processing and drying, it is easy to attract ants because the earth element will disperse a stench of stench. Therefore, it is recommended to select antless worms or to prevent ants from entering. At the same time, it should also prevent flies from biting insects. If there are too many flies, net covers should be added to prevent flies from entering. Therefore, when sun dried, there should be a person responsible for the care, to ensure the production of high-quality worms, increase economic efficiency.
