What is a easy turkish delight recipe?
Turkish Delight Recipe (Lokum) ingredients; 5-1/2 cups water 5 cups granulated sugar 1/4 cup confectioners (powdered) sugar 1-3/4 cups cornstarch 1 cup nuts: pistachios, hazelnuts or walnuts 1 teaspoon cream of tartar 1 teaspoon lemon juice Preparation In a saucepan, mix 4-1/2 cups water, 5 cups granulated sugar and 1 tsp lemon juice. Bring the mixture to a boil, then simmer for 10 minutes, dissolving the sugar to make syrup. In a bowl, mix 1 cup water and 1 cup cornstarch, then blend in the cream of tartar. Gradually blend the cornstarch mixture into the simmering syrup while vigorously stirring with a wire whisk. Stir frequently while cooking for 1-1/2 to two hours, until the mixture forms a soft ball with an internal temperature of about 235°F (113°C). Test the mixture by dropping a small amount into ice water. It should form a ball. When picked out of the ice water and held between two fingers, it should easily flatten. Stop cooking the mixture, and mix the nuts in well. Hazelnuts
