This flower can heal, beautify, and even be made into canned food; you wouldn't mind growing 100 pots of it.
Today, Huahua is introducing a flower that is not only ornamental and edible, but the key point is that it can also be used as a beautifying toner! This flower is the aloe vera that almost every household has! Follow Huahua to see the great uses of the little aloe vera!
In summer, 1 bottle of canned aloe vera clears heat, reduces internal heat, and treats constipation!
The mucilage of aloe vera contains 75 elements, basically all of which are needed by the human body, and it has extremely high medicinal value. Don't call it a "little plant medicine box." Next, follow Huahua to see how aloe vera should be eaten!
1. Cut the aloe vera into small sections and remove the long thorns on both sides for later use.
2. Place the aloe vera vertically along the edge of the basin to let it fully release aloe-emodin. Aloe-emodin is bitter, and if the content is too high, it easily affects the taste.
3. After the aloe-emodin has been fully released, rinse it several times with clean water. The canned food made this way will not have a bitter taste.
4. After washing, use a thinner small knife to scrape off the green outer skin of the aloe vera, leaving only the transparent flesh.
5. Pour an appropriate amount of clean water into the pot. After the water boils, add the aloe vera flesh. You can add an appropriate amount of honey according to personal preference. Boil for about 10 minutes and it is ready.
6. After cooking, first put it in the refrigerator to chill for a while, then take it out to eat, and the taste will be better! Canned aloe vera has the effect of relieving constipation, clears heat and reduces internal heat, and is most suitable for a can in summer!
1 aloe leaf turns into toner in seconds!
The polysaccharides and multiple vitamins contained in aloe vera can moisturize the skin. The moisturizing masks commonly used by many girls contain aloe vera ingredients!
1. Clean the aloe leaves and use a small knife to scrape off the outer green skin of the aloe.
2. The scraped flesh can be crushed with a blender.
3. Prepare rock sugar, aloe, and water in a ratio of 1:3:10, put them in a plastic bottle and tighten the cap, place in a cool and ventilated place, and open the cap every 3-5 days to release gas.
4. After about 3 months, fermentation is basically complete. Filter out the clear liquid in the bottle and mix it with mineral water at a ratio of 1:20. The moisturizing and hydrating aloe toner is ready, and you can spray it directly on your face!
5. Do not throw away the scraped green skin. Dry it in the sunlight, and it can be used to make tea!
Only these aloe varieties can be eaten and used for beauty!
There are several hundred varieties of aloe, but not every one can be used for eating or skincare. So far, there are only 3 kinds of aloe that are both edible and suitable for beauty.
