If it is too tender, the stone jelly will not be shaped and cannot condense, but if it is too old, it will be a little hard, which will affect the taste. Only when the "point" is just right will it be smooth and moderate. Once the powder in the basin is touched, it becomes a colorless and transparent solidification. At this time, it has been formed and can be eaten, but if it is chilled with ice cubes for a while, the taste will be better. This stone jelly is colorless and tasteless, so what’s so delicious about it? In fact, its taste is unique in that it is colorless and odorless.
