DIY Nest Cleaning and Cooking

Raw nests after harvesting




Pick one of them for cleaning



















Put it in the tap water


















Let's it fully expand for around 2 hours, depending on dryness of the nest 



You need these tools for nest cleaning



















Some dirts in the water after taking out the nest to be discarded


















Let's start the cleaning process


















Clean the nest strand by strand





















If too many small dirts put the nest's strand in the water for few times, most of the dirts will drop out automatically, the rest and the feather to pick up by forcep





















Place the clean nest in the mould



















 If you can not finish on the same day, just dry up the nest on the fan



















Carry on the cleaning when you are free, by put the nest in the tap water again





















Mission completed for 1 pc of raw nest, my speed is around 2 to 3 hours per nest, one piece of raw nest become 2 pcs of clean nest 


















Dry up the clean nest on the fan


















After 12 hours


















After 24 hours

After 48 hours of fully dry, you can keep the nest with others clean nest





















Pick 2 pcs of the clean nest for cooking


















Prepare some herbal ingredient, I am prefered only rock sugar


















Boil it for few hours with auto mood, around 5 to 7 hours for this type of cooking



















Lastly it's ready for consumption, Personally I am prefered the nest is cook with rock sugar only, so you are able to smell the strong chicken egg protien smell while consumption. 


















Hope you enjoy it and have a good health forever
