Guangdong's Autumn Drying Season is Here

Autumn is the harvest season, and crops of different colors and shapes are laid out to dry, creating a colorful picture. On the slopes, on the windowsills, on the rooftops, red peppers, yellow corn, orange pumpkins, and more are laid out to dry, creating a visually striking autumn drying scene. . In November, the people of Guangdong also have a unique regional activity of drying tangerine peels. . ✔️First, the whole family goes out to the production areas such as Tianma and Meijiang to pick fruit. There are many tricks to it, such as original branches, grafted branches, and ring branches, as well as big red and second red. The price varies every year and for each variety, with the cheapest being 10 yuan per pound and the most expensive being 25-30 yuan per pound. ✔️Then the fruit is processed to collect the peel. ✔️Then it takes several months to lay them out in the park, on the road, and on the balcony on sunny days, and you have to turn the peel at the right time. ✔️Basically, 100 pounds of fruit, peeled and dried, will yield 3-5 pounds of dried tangerine peel, which can be stored and taken out to dry every year. ✔️Finally, the quality and price of the dried tangerine peel depend on the skill of drying and the weather conditions. I'll take out my 10-year-old Meijiang peel and brew a pot, which is great for moistening the lungs and removing dampness in autumn and winter.
