🍃 What is Guiling Jelly (Gui Ling Gao)?
Guiling Jelly is a famous traditional dessert and herbal cooling food from Guangdong, China. It is made primarily from turtle extract and herbal ingredients, known for its cooling properties in hot and humid climates.
Historically, it is said that during southern expeditions, soldiers suffered from heat-related illness. A local herbal remedy was introduced and proved effective—this later became known as Guiling Jelly.
Traditionally, the recipe used:
- Turtle shell extract
- Smilax glabra (Fu Ling)
The turtle would be boiled for over 16 hours, extracting gelatin, then mixed with herbal paste and steamed to form a jelly.
