Glass-Candy Strawberry Tanghulu
Strawberry Tanghulu is a sweet twist on tradition with its crackly sugar shell and fresh, juicy center and something a little unexpected this Valentine’s Day.
Ingredients
- 10-12 large fresh strawberries
- 1 cup sugar
- 1/2 cup water
- ice cubes
- wooden skewers
Instructions
- Wash and dry the strawberries, leaving the stems intact. Skewer 2-3 strawberries on each wooden skewer.
- In a small saucepan, combine the sugar and water. Cook over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until the mixture reaches 300°F on a candy thermometer (hard crack stage).
- Remove from heat and allow to cool slightly.
- Prepare a bowl filled with ice water.
- Dip each skewered strawberry into the hot sugar mixture, coating it thoroughly. Allow any excess sugar to drip off.
- Immediately dip the coated strawberries into the ice water bath to cool and harden the sugar coating. Remove and pat dry.
- Serve the strawberry tangulu skewers chilled and crispy, as a delicious and unique treat. Enjoy!
