Schisandra Berry Jelly Processing Methods and Technical Key Points
1. Process flow: raw materials → sorting → washing → pulping and seed removal → boiling → filtering → blending → concentration → filling and sealing → sterilization → cooling → inspection → finished product. 2. Technical key points (1) Raw material handling: select fresh Schisandra berries with good maturity, remove impurities and moldy parts, then wash them clean, then crush them with a crusher while removing the seeds; after boiling, filter to remove the pulp portion. The pulp may also be retained, and after blending, homogenization treatment is required, with a homogenization pressure of 50 MPa. (2) Blending: the juice dosage is 25%-

Detailed Explanation of Gastrodia elata Harvesting, Processing and Storage Techniques
Gastrodia elata is a precious Chinese medicinal herb, and doing a good job of harvesting and processing it is the most critical step in improving the quality of commercial Gastrodia elata. At the same time, Gastrodia elata has high commercial value, so proper grading and storage of commercial Gastrodia elata are also very important. The harvesting, processing, grading and storage methods for Gastrodia elata are introduced as follows: I. Harvesting 1. Harvesting time. The harvesting time for Gastrodia elata is generally from late autumn to early winter (that is, October to November). At this time, Gastrodia elata has stopped growing. Harvesting at this time is not only convenient for processing, but also beneficial for timely cultivation after harvest, and the yield of Gastrodia elata is high and the quality is good.

Detailed Explanation of Harvesting and Processing Methods for Codonopsis pilosula
For direct-sown fields, harvest in the third year; for transplanted fields, harvest after two years of growth following transplanting. For medicinal Codonopsis pilosula, the harvest period runs from when the aboveground parts wither until before the ground freezes, but the best quality is obtained when harvested within the half-month before and after the White Dew solar term. When harvesting, first remove the support stakes, cut off the stems and vines, then dig up the roots. Take care not to damage the roots while digging, to prevent the loss of sap. Remove the residual stems from the dug roots, wash off the soil, and sort them by size, length and thickness into old, large and medium grades for drying in the sun. After drying until half-dry, briefly blanch in boiling water, then sun-dry or oven-dry (oven-drying must use only a low fire, with the temperature around 60°C

Detailed Explanation of Key Techniques for Harvesting and Processing Polygonatum
Polygonatum can be harvested in either spring or autumn, with the best quality obtained from harvests in late autumn and early winter. After digging, remove the stems, leaves, fibrous roots, soil, sand and impurities; large ones can be split into 2 or 3 sections and placed in a steamer or wooden rice steamer to steam for about 12 hours, until they appear glossy and moist, then take them out and sun-dry or oven-dry (requires no smoke and low heat); or place them in water, boil, then remove and sun-dry or oven-dry. However, processing by the steaming method is better (after steaming it is prepared Polygonatum, while after boiling in water and sun-drying it is raw Polygonatum).

Detailed Explanation of Key Points on Harvesting and Processing Techniques for Asarum
Harvesting: For Asarum grown by direct seeding, if the density is high, it can be harvested after 3-4 years of growth. If transplanted with 2-year-old seedlings, harvest 3-4 years after planting; if using 3-year-old seedlings, harvest 2-3 years after planting. Sometimes, to collect more seeds, harvesting can be delayed to 5-6 years, but beyond 7 years the plants age and become prone to disease, and the root system becomes dense and twisted into a mat, making harvesting inconvenient. The best harvesting time is mid-September each year. Processing: After harvesting, remove all mud and sand, bind into bundles of 1-2 kg each, and place in a cool, shady area to dry in the shade. Avoid washing with water or sun-drying. After washing with water, the leaves turn black and the roots turn white; after sun-drying, the leaves turn yellow, both of which reduce the aroma and affect quality.

Detailed Explanation of Key Points in Panax notoginseng Cultivation and Processing Techniques
Panax notoginseng, also known as Tianqi, Tiansanqi, Shenqi, Sanshenqi, Shanqi, Jinbuhuan, Dianqi, etc., is a perennial herbaceous plant of the Araliaceae family. Its root is used as medicine; it is neutral in nature and sweet in taste. It functions to invigorate blood circulation and stop bleeding, reduce swelling and relieve pain. Cultivating the medicinal herb Panax notoginseng not only benefits agricultural structural adjustment but also helps farmers increase income. I. Cultivation Techniques 1. Land preparation and basal fertilizer application: Choose sandy loam soil with relatively high terrain, wind-sheltered and sun-facing, deep soil layer, rich in humus, and good drainage. The previous crop should preferably be corn, peanuts, or legumes, and solanaceous crops must never be the previous crop. Plow repeatedly to about 20 cm to

A Detailed Guide to the Processing Techniques and Methods for Goji Berries
1. Sun-drying: Place the freshly picked berries in a ventilated, shady spot for 2 days, then dry them in weaker sunlight. At night, cover them well so they are not exposed to dew, and do not turn them by hand, as this can cause the fruit to blister and turn black. 2. Oven-drying: First bake at 40-50°C for 24-36 hours, until the skin is slightly wrinkled; then bake at 45°C-50°C for 36-48 hours, until the fruit has fully shrunk and become wrinkled; finally bake at 50°C-55°C for 24 hours, and it will be thoroughly dry. Well-dried fruit,

Detailed Explanation of Gastrodia elata Cultivation Techniques and Processing Methods
Gastrodia elata is a herbaceous plant, with its underground tubers used as medicine. It mainly treats high blood pressure, dizziness, headache, facial paralysis, limb numbness, infantile convulsions, hemiplegia and other conditions. It is also used for pilots' brain health care and Alzheimer's disease, etc., and is an ideal medicine for brain and nerve health. 1. Propagation of Gastrodia elata 1.1 Sexual propagation When a few Gastrodia elata plants send up aboveground stems and bloom, the sandy soil should be kept moist, the flowering stems fixed with bamboo poles, and direct sunlight shaded. After the flower buds take shape, the flowers open from bottom to top, one to several per day. If pollinating insects are lacking, @#@255@#@ can be kept nearby or artificial pollination can be carried out: use tweezers to open the corolla, remove the anther cap, take out the pollen mass, and place it on the stigma. Pollination should be done between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m. If pollination is successful, the ovary swells, the corolla withers, and the ovary suture becomes obvious. Once it splits, a large number of seeds will be released. When one fruit splits, cut off 3-5 adjacent fruits and place them in a container to take the seeds after they split naturally. The seeds scattered in the container should be sown immediately and must not be left standing. Lift up the cultured fungal material of the prepared fungal bed, spread broadleaf tree leaves about 1 cm thick underneath, scatter the seeds among the leaf layer, sowing the seeds of 10-20 fruits per square meter, then restore the fungal material to its original state, scatter a layer of leaves, cover with fill, and let it grow strong Gastrodia elata, becoming a high-yielding hybrid seed tuber. When planting Gastrodia elata, make several more fungal beds, do not put in seed tubers, and prepare them for use in sexual propagation of Gastrodia elata.

Processing Methods and Technical Key Points for Licorice Olive
The raw material used for licorice olive is also olive base, with the same processing technique as chili olive, only the formula is different, and of course the flavor is different too. The processing technique is as follows: 1. Raw material treatment: Desalt the olive base. Since the aim is to highlight the licorice flavor, too much salt should not be left during desalting; generally a slight saltiness is sufficient. After desalting, drain the water or bake until semi-dry for later use. 2. Licorice liquid preparation: Use 5% licorice liquid, that is, for 50 kg of olive base use 2.5 kg of licorice, add 50 kg of clean water, boil down into 20-25 kg of licorice liquid, filter and set aside.
