Tangerine Tanghulu

🧂 Ingredients

• 2-3 tangerines or mandarin oranges

  peeled & sectioned
• 300 g granulated sugar
• 150 g water

Instructions

• 1 Add 3 tangerine slices to the end of each skewer and set aside.
• 2 In a small pot, stir together the sugar and water on low heat until the sugar
  has dissolved.
• 3 Turn it up to medium heat and boil the syrup until it reaches 300°F or 150°C,
  about 8-10 minutes. The bubbles will noticeably become larger and slower as the
  mixture thickens. If you don't have a candy thermometer, you can dip a chopstick
  into the syrup and immediately into cold water. Bite the chopstick and if it
  crunches, it's ready.
• 4 Tilt the pot so that the sugar pools in a corner and quickly swirl a tangerine
  skewer in the syrup to coat.
• 5 Place the skewers on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper and let cool for
  5-10 minutes until the sugar has hardened. Enjoy right away.
