the whiting covering layer, after that you will pour the pulp of litchi (keep
their pip) into weak bittern, one hour later, you will take them out and
preserve them in tight box. Then you will put that box in freezer of fridge.

5. Eat without eliminating the white covering layer
When we eat the white covering layer (when
peeling the outside cover, we will see that layer), our body won’t be hot. This
layer is rather acrid, so when we eat the pulp of litchi, we won’t feel that it
is sweeter. After finishing eating litchi, you should eat the white part on the
head of litchi’s pip because this thing can prevent the hot feeling.
