Hello, my lovers of cooking and love of food. I have returned to the Foodies Bee Hive community with a snack or dessert, but rather a candy made from peanuts. and that candy has a simple name just like how it is - peanut candy.
Today I would like to introduce to you a simple but delicious recipe for making candy, this candy can be said to be a specialty of my hometown.
I want to introduce briefly this candy.
The candy I made today is a simpler version of another type of candy called "cu de". Candy is made from peanuts, sugar or molasses, a little ginger, and rice paper. Cu de candy is a specialty of our countryside for many generations and is still handed down forever. Candy made from agricultural products combined with sweetness from sugar, molasses reminds people far away from home to remember where they were born.
The recipe I followed today is the simplest and fastest way. Try doing it with me.
Ingredients needed to make peanut candy:peanuts: 1 bowl
sugar: 0,5kg
clean paper: 2 sheets
implementation steps:peanuts
peeled, roasted, and broken in half.
For the recipe, I don't use rice paper, instead, I use paper to make a mold for the candy. Because my house just ran out of gas, I also used a wood stove to roast peanuts. You can use a gas stove to roast peanuts. and get peanut with the 1: 1 scale road. For every 1 cup of peanuts, 1 bowl of sugar.
Let's go through the next steps:cook candy
Put the pot on the stove, then add the sugar, stir until the sugar melts into a liquid-like we melt chocolate.
In this step, we have to be quick and keep the fire low so that the sugar doesn't burn.
When the sugar has completely turned into liquid, then we put the roasted peanuts, pound them in half. Stir the sugar with the peanuts, mix the peanuts in the sugar, then turn off the stove.
We spread 2 sheets of paper, one horizontal, one vertical, overlapping like a plus sign, then pour the peanuts and sugar onto the paper.
At this step, you need to be careful not to get burned, because the sugar is very hot, so if you get it on your hands, you will get burned.
and finished the peanut candy today. After being poured into paper, peanut candy can be left for about 30 minutes to cool and harden before you can eat it. Peanut candy will taste better when combined with a cup of hot tea. It will be very interesting when you enjoy these two kinds of dishes together.
With the above simple recipe, I hope you will succeed when you try to make this candy. I am happy to share my passion with you. And I was also able to cook many dishes according to your recipes.
