Mod de preparare
Pas cu pas
- 1
Prepare a baking sheet by lining it with parchment paper and lightly greasing the paper with butter.
Aproximativ 2 min.
Nota bucătarului: Ensure the parchment paper is large enough to spread the brittle thinly.
- 2
In a heavy-bottomed saucepan, combine the sugar, honey, and water.
Aproximativ 1 min.
Nota bucătarului: Using a heavy-bottomed pan prevents scorching.
- 3
Heat the mixture over medium heat, stirring constantly until the sugar completely dissolves.
Aproximativ 3 min.
- 4
Once the sugar is dissolved, stop stirring and bring the syrup to a boil.
Aproximativ 2 min.
- 5
Continue to boil the syrup without stirring until it reaches the hard crack stage (149-154°C or 300-310°F) on a candy thermometer.
Aproximativ 10 min.
Nota bucătarului: If you don't have a thermometer, drop a small amount into cold water; it should form brittle threads.
- 6
Remove the saucepan from the heat and immediately stir in the bloomed saffron, rose water, slivered almonds, and chopped pistachios.
Aproximativ 1 min.
Nota bucătarului: Work quickly as the mixture will start to set.
- 7
Carefully pour the hot mixture onto the prepared parchment-lined baking sheet.
Aproximativ 1 min.
Nota bucătarului: Be extremely careful as the mixture is very hot.
- 8
Using an offset spatula or the back of a spoon (lightly buttered to prevent sticking), quickly spread the mixture into a thin, even layer.
Aproximativ 2 min.
Nota bucătarului: The thinner you spread it, the crispier the brittle will be.
- 9
Allow the Sohan Asali to cool completely at room temperature for at least 30 minutes until it is firm and brittle.
Aproximativ 30 min.
- 10
Once cooled, break the brittle into irregular pieces of desired size.
Aproximativ 2 min.
Nota bucătarului: You can also score it with a knife while still warm if you prefer uniform pieces.
