陈皮的居家储存小妙招

陈皮，有着千年的悠久历史，自古以来药食同源，在人们生活中很是常见，更兼多种疗养之效，故而有“一两陈皮一两金，百年陈皮胜黄金”的美誉。那么，日常居家怎样才能更好地储存陈皮呢？

丨原则

避免高温及潮湿环境，保持清洁、通风，不要放冰箱。

丨容器选择

①、麻袋、布袋

对于陈皮来说，使用麻袋保存的陈化效果是比较好的。

麻袋吸湿性能好，通风透气性强，散失水分快，有一定的密封性又不失透气，可以让陈皮自然慢慢陈化，但要注意防潮湿，及时翻晒。

②、玻璃瓶、铁罐子

优点是密封性不错，而且玻璃瓶还方便日常观察陈皮的状况；缺点是透气性差、陈化相对较慢。

在将陈皮放入瓶罐之后，可用棉纸铺盖在陈皮上面，具有一定的吸湿作用。

③、陶罐、紫砂罐

紫砂罐、陶罐在其制作过程中会形成一些微小孔隙，具有良好遮光性的同时，又兼具一定的透气性，有利于陈皮的自然陈化，是非常不错的一个选择。

但有一点，若在常年湿润或沿海的环境下，水气会在罐表面凝聚，并渗透到内部，导致陈皮吸潮发霉，因此要注意日常的打理和维护。

Chenpi has a long history of thousands of years. Since ancient times, it has the same origin as medicine and food. It is very common in people's lives, and it also has a variety of healing effects. Therefore, it has the reputation of "one tael of tangerine peel and one tael of gold, a century of tangerine peel is better than gold". So, how can we better store tangerine peel at home?

丨Principles

Avoid high temperature and humid environment, keep clean and ventilated, do not put in the refrigerator.

丨Container selection

①, sacks, cloth bags

For dried tangerine peel, the aging effect of using sacks is better.

The sack has good hygroscopic performance, strong ventilation and air permeability, loses moisture quickly, and has a certain degree of airtightness without losing air permeability.

②, glass bottle, iron can

The advantage is that the sealing is good, and the glass bottle is also convenient for daily observation of the condition of tangerine peel; the disadvantage is that the air permeability is poor and the aging is relatively slow.

After putting the dried tangerine peel in the bottle, it can be covered with tissue paper, which has a certain hygroscopic effect.

③, clay pots, purple clay pots

Zisha pots and clay pots will form some tiny pores during the production process. They have good shading properties and at the same time have certain air permeability, which is conducive to the natural aging of dried tangerine peel. It is a very good choice.

But one thing, if it is in a humid or coastal environment all the year round, the moisture will condense on the surface of the tank and penetrate into the interior, causing the dried tangerine peel to absorb moisture and become moldy, so pay attention to daily care and maintenance.
