HOW TO MAKE TURKISH DELIGHT NARNIA HOW TO

If I had known what I was getting myself into, perhaps I wouldnвЂ™t have done it. I should just say that I was on a vacation, and was a lot less strict about what I ate, and this just seemed like a fun experiment for me afterwards. This is by no means a healthy recipe!!В It is much higher in sugar than anything I would normally make, and IвЂ™m not a huge fan of cornstarch either, even when organic.

Perhaps I should give bit of a disclaimer before continuing. After comparing a few of them, they all seemed to be pretty similar so I figured it was going to be easy to make, and I excitedly got out my ingredients and had a try at it.

So, I was determined to learn how to make turkish delight, and was excited to see so many recipes for it floating around the internet. If you know me well enough by now, you know that I will try to make anything I see from scratch. I was a bit disappointed to see that I had really only brought back a few pieces of this new treat I loved so much.

The boxes were quite large, but were highly padded inside. Unfortunately, the boxes I had bought were a bitВ deceiving. When I ate the first bite of turkish delight, I felt that same sort of instant attraction to its exotic flavors combined with that chewy texture that I adore. Whether it be black, red, or any other new strange version of it, something about the chewy texture has me hooked. You see, the only candy I really have a hard time passing on is licorice.

I suspected that I would like turkish delight, but wasnвЂ™t prepared for how much I would like it. With my love of trying new things, and my obsession with unusual flavors (especially anything with a вЂњperfumedвЂќ type flavor like litchees or flowers like roses and lavender), I knew I had to give it a try. Turkish delight has had my interest piqued ever since I used to watch The Lion, The Witch, and the Wardrobe at my grandparentвЂ™s house as a kid and saw how the witch lured in Edmund with promises of this delectable treat. That said, rather that picking up an вЂњauthentic fake watch,вЂќ I couldnвЂ™t help but buyingВ a couple of boxes of Turkish delight and twoВ beautiful hand painted dishes on my stop in Kusadasi. On a cruise, you only make short stops in each country and only in touristy areas at that, so I canвЂ™t proclaim myself to be an expert in Turkish anything of course. My family had takenВ a long needed vacation by going for a one week Eastern European cruise that started in Venice, Italy, and stopped in Croatia, Greece and Turkey.
