Luxurious peach gum sweet soup with translucent, collagen-like pearls is a beauty-boosting dessert. A family recipe with fresh, natural sweetness.
Rinse 2 tbsp dried peach gum several times and soak in water for 12 hours until fully expanded and jelly-like.
Remove impurities from soaked peach gum, drain, and set aside. Rinse dried red dates, goji berries, dried longan, and lily bulbs separately.
In a medium pot, add 4 cups water, red dates, dried longan, and lily bulbs. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat.
Once boiling, reduce to low heat, add peach gum, and simmer uncovered for 35–40 minutes. Skim off any foam to keep the soup clear.
Add rock sugar and goji berries. Stir gently and simmer for another 5–10 minutes until sugar dissolves and the soup is fragrant. Serve warm or chilled.
