Again in this contest 
At Christmas we always have a very traditional dessert that goes from generation to generation, I am talking about nothing more and nothing less than this delicious dessert "sweet of milky".
The milky or papaya candy has a good durability time, it is made very easily and although most of us who make it use the same ingredients each one gives it a particular touch.
Papaya or milky candy
Ingredients:
- 2 kilos of milky or green papaya
- 1 kg of paper (sugar cane molasses)
- 2 cups of sugar
- 1 tablespoon of bicarbonate
- One and a half teaspoons of cloves and water
Your preparation
- We take the milky green
- With a knife you slice it lengthwise and leave it to the watchman to throw away all the milk it contains.
- Then they are peeled, all the seeds are extracted and the milky is chopped into small, thin slices and left in the sun for several hours before cooking.
- In a pot with water place the chopped milky with a spoonful of bicarbonate are put on the fire and left for 10 minutes to remove the bitter taste of the fruit and to soften it better.
- It's removed from the fire, they're sneaked in and washed in cold water.
- In a pot with about 12 cups of water, melt the paper and sugar. Once it boils, add the milk and cloves and cook for about 2 hours or more, until the syrup begins to firm up but does not become thick.
I like the milky one to be somewhere in between, not watery. When you get this, the candy's ready.
Turn off the stove and serve.
The candy is kept in the fridge in glass jars or in a sweet shop and can be stored for several weeks.
