**The outer packaging of Ejiao has been professionally designed, with clear patterns and logos, exquisite printing, and the word "Ejiao" has an obvious sense of concave and convex. Use one-time tear packaging, tear along the left zigzag line on the front of the box, you can see a group of 16-bit anti-counterfeiting digital, according to the manual by dialing **, writing a text message or inquiring on the Internet three ways to enter the number according to the prompts, you can know the authenticity. Generally, the outer packaging of fake Ejiao is printed roughly, and there are often typos, missing words, and wrong labeling of registered trademarks, and some fake Ejiao also have anti-counterfeiting signs, but almost all of the anti-counterfeiting ** can not be played or prompted to enter the error, and the real and fake Ejiao are put together, it is clear at a glance.

4.Smell the smell.

**The rubber block is first opened and the packaging is opened, and the surface of the rubber block is lightly breathed, and the nose smells with a faint fragrance of Ejiao, and after crushing, the nose smells with the unique fragrance of Ejiao. Fake ejiao does not have a clear fragrance, but a strange smell such as fishy or peculiar odor.

5.Look at the solution.

**After the glue block is smashed, take an appropriate amount and put it into a transparent glass, add an appropriate amount of boiling water, stir and dissolve, and place it for 1 2 minutes.

"One look".

**Ejiao is an amber or brown-black rectangular flat block, with flat block shape, neat corners, shiny surface, and the edge of the Ejiao block is translucent when the light is seen through.

"Two pieces".

Ejiao is brittle in texture and fragile when patted with your hands, and small pieces of ejiao will melt within half an hour when put in hot water, and then refrigerated in hot water will form jelly.

"Three smells".

When ejiao is dissolved in hot water, it will emit a gum fragrance, while the taste of fake ejiao is fishy.

Ejiao is especially suitable for people with yin deficiency (often manifested as dry mouth, dry eyes, dry nose, dry mouth, irritability, poor sleep, etc.) and lack of qi and blood.

Ejiao into medicine:

In the boiled Chinese medicine to replenish qi and blood, add some crushed ejiao blocks to let the ejiao melt into the Chinese medicine juice, which can enhance the effect of the Chinese medicine to replenish qi and blood.

Ejiao porridge:

Take an appropriate amount of rice or millet and cook it; Take an appropriate amount of ejiao and put it in hot water, dissolve it, add it to the porridge and cook it slightly, stir until it cooks. It has the effect of nourishing blood and kidneys and strengthening the body.

It is especially suitable for people with qi deficiency and cough.

Ejiao should be as yellow as amber, as black as lacquer. The real one has no skin odor, and it is not soft in summer. Fire test:

Take a small sample and burn it in the crucible, it bursts at first, then expands and melts and emits white smoke, with a strong aroma of sesame oil, and the residue after ash is jet black, loose, in the form of a sheet or clumpy, and does not bond with the crucible; Water test: boil and dissolve, the solution is light brown-red, turbid, and white substances are precipitated, there are oil droplets on the liquid surface, take the gel and dissolve it in water, the liquid is clear, no turbidity; Slapping: Holding and slapping the tabletop vigorously, the fragment section is brown, translucent, and no foreign matter is true, if the slapping is soft but not broken, it is suspected to be a counterfeit.

The first counterfeit product of Ejiao is kraft glue, which is hard and not easy to break, has a strong turbidity odor when burned, and there are no oil droplets on the liquid surface of the water test solution; the second is miscellaneous skin glue, which has the aroma of soybean oil when burned, and the water test solution is dark gray-brown-red, and there are a few oil spots on the liquid surface; The third is bone glue, the surface is opaque and dull, there are small holes caused by bubbles, irregular wrinkles on the side, hard and not easy to break, and the gas is slightly smelly; Fourth, gelatin, smooth and bright, brittle, slight or ink-like odor. After the fire test, it becomes a white flaky powder and does not stick.

In addition, the Ejiao solution does not agglutinate after standing for 4 hours, and the counterfeit solution condenses into a paste.

In addition, the appearance of turtle gum and deer gum is similar to that of ejiao, and it should also be distinguished: turtle gum, the surface is brown and slightly greenish, with a yellow "oil head" on it, and it is as clean as amber and hard in light view; Deer glue, the surface is black-brown, translucent to light, one side has a yellow-white porous thin layer, brittle and fragile, the section is reddish-brown, with a vitreous luster.

There are several ways to distinguish the authenticity of Ejiao.

The raw materials will directly affect the taste, and a good Ejiao cake is more vigorous, easy to melt, and has the fragrance of walnuts and sesame. If the red dates you choose are not good, the taste will be sour, the walnut kernels will be bad, the taste will be bitter, and the sesame skin will be thick and the taste will be astringent.

2. Look at the appearance.

Good Ejiao cake sesame seeds, walnut kernels, red dates and other accessories are clearly distributed, and the additive Ejiao cake will see black paste - blocks, because of the addition of dextrin and gelatin and other substances.

3. Smell the smell.

Good Ejiao cake will have a faint aroma of gum and sesame seeds, and also reveal the aroma of rice wine, while fake Ejiao cake will have a peculiar smell, or basically no taste.

**Ejiao has a gum fragrance, you should smell the gum block directly, it is best to break it into powder and smell it, and fake Ejiao has a fishy smell, which is very different.
