The ratio of sugar to raw material is 1:0.7. 0.2% citric acid is added to the sugar liquid. Because the rind rind tissue is relatively hard, it can be heated and boiled with a once-through sugar method. The skins are boiled together, and they can be heated by large heat, allowing them to quickly evaporate water. They cook until the raw material becomes transparent, and when the sugar concentrate is continuously concentrated in the syrup, it should be heated with a small fire to avoid caramelization. It is dark brown and should be stopped when the sugar concentration reaches 70%.
