Remove both ends and the seeds from the bitter melon, split it into two halves, cut it into strips about 4 cm long, blanch them in a pot of boiling water, then soak them in a vat of cold water and take them out the next day to drain. Put them in a vat and add salt, one layer of melon and one layer of salt. After 1 to 2 days, transfer the whole batch, together with the brine, to another vat once, and after another 1 to 2 days, take them out and sun-dry them until fully dry to make dried bitter melon blanks for later use. Pour boiling water equal in weight to the original fresh melon into a vat, then add auxiliary ingredients such as perilla powder and licorice powder and mix well, so that the dried bitter melon is evenly moistened, then take it out and sun-dry until 80 percent dry.
