I'm making the lemon pastils, I'll tell you how it goes! Edit: It looked just like yours until it went into the oven. It all melted together and went yellowish. When dried it's a gooey mess that doesn't snap or melt in your mouth at all. I can't see how you got to your result with just two ingredients, I honestly have a different enough result here that it feels like a 5 minute crafts recipe :/ what did i do wrong?

John 3:16 "For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life." Romans 10:1 "If you confess with your mouth the Lord Jesus and believe in your heart that God has raised Him from the dead, you will be saved." Psalm 86:15 “But you, my Lord, are a God of compassion and mercy; you are very patient and full of faithful love.” 1 John 3:23: "This is He's command: to believe in the name of his Son, Jesus Christ, and to love one another." 1 John 3:1 “See what kind of love the Father has given to us in that we should be called God’s children, and that is what we are!" ---------------- Revelation 21:1-8 "Then I saw a new heaven and a new earth, for the first heaven and the first earth had passed away, and the sea was no more. And I saw the holy city, new Jerusalem, coming down out of heaven from God, prepared as a bride adorned for her husband. And I heard a loud voice from the throne saying, “Behold, the dwelling place of God is with man. He will dwell with them, and they will be his people, and God himself will be with them as their God. He will wipe away every tear from their eyes, and death shall be no more, neither shall there be mourning, nor crying, nor pain anymore, for the former things have passed away.” And he who was seated on the throne said, “Behold, I am making all things new..." 2 Peter 3:10 "But the day of the Lord will come like a thief, and then the heavens will pass away with a roar, and the heavenly bodies will be burned up and dissolved, and the earth and the works that are done on it will be exposed." --- Luke 23:43 And he said to him, “Truly, I say to you, today you will be with me in Paradise.” uztop.info/main/PLZmPTRQDgybqDaRrq0ZekSmM1k_QpcBPi.html

I tried the lemon pastil recipe but I just made sugary lemon soup in my oven ;-; Edit: I made burnt sugar that tasted vaguely like lemon. I left my oven at 250f for 30 minutes, then when I discovered the soup, I put it at 350f.. For 30 minutes. I would love to know what the HECK low fire is in Fahrenheit.

When I learned to make macarons, my instructor actually used the sugar and cold water and finger method. He showed me how he did it and said to leave your finger in the cold and then immediately put it in the sugar and then the cold water as quick as you can. If its gooey then its right, if its hard its overdone. This is something he was taught to do so he can make macarons without a candy thermometer

The thing about putting your finger in melted caramel actually used to be a normal thing, my grandmother used to do it and it's not as dangerous as it sounds, but obviously that recipe doesn't tell the whole thing about it: before pitting your finger to the caramel, to avoid the obvious burn you have to dip for a couple of seconds your finger into very cold water from the fridge, then just VERY QUICKLY dip the very point of your finger into the caramel and quickly put it back into the cold water. If done propperly, you'll only feel a dash of heat that won't cause you pain or burns (Done PROPPERLY). If you happen to have long nails you can make it even safer by just dipping the tip of the nail, so that way the caramel won't make contact to the finger's skin. This is actually a way to tell by touch at what point your caramel is(I don't know how many points are, I just know one that is called-and I'm literally translating, so it probably won't have the same name in english-"ball point", but still, since nowadays we have better and safer tools, if possible use them.

Hi Ann, I'm really disappointed with these recipes. I followed your "rewrite" recipe on your Website and watched this video enough times to have practically memorized the transcript, but this just did not go right at all. I wanted to make the coffee "bomboons" for my mother. To begin with, the kind of cream you use is not available in the U.S., so I looked up what our equivalent would be and it turned out to be heavy whipping cream. I used this, along with coffee made with water, exactly as instructed. I let it heat to boiling on the stove, washed the sides with water on a brush, poured the cream in, and stirred continuously. During my first attempt, it boiled over, leaving burnt sugar on my stove and a lot of smoke in the house. I cleaned up the mess and retried on a different burner. Yet it would always boil too high, even in my largest pot. I had to keep removing it from the stove every 15 or so seconds, just to keep it from boiling over. So I thought, maybe the temperature is too high. I set it down to medium which it still boiled over on, and eventually to medium-low. After 20 minutes on medium-low, it still wasn't crack-hard or even gooey- it just dissolved in the cold water. I went to your video to see what yours looked like just before you took it off the stove, but you didn't show what it looks like. I rechecked the recipe for the 7th time, but the ONLY specification you gave was that the bubbles would "pop slower" when the coffee and sugar had boiled together long enough, which wasn't even what I needed direction on. Very helpful. You are a food scientist, you easily understand what temperature things should be at, the right consistency, and the right amount of time to let something cook. Please keep in mind that the rest of the world doesn't automatically know these things. You only actually showed what the mixture looks like when a spoonful is dropped into water, something that just wasn't working for me. Continuing on, I then waited over an hour for it to become crack hard, but it was impossible. All I ended up with was a mess and some honey-textured sugar-cream-coffee. "So onto take 2!" I thought to myself. This time, I looked up what the temperature for "crack-hard" is. I found out that it's approximately 300 degrees Fahrenheit. I used a candy thermometer to monitor the temperature. After hitting 225 degrees, the mixture would not let me rest, it kept boiling too high. I was desperately watching your video and re-reading your recipe, but it was absolutely useless to me. I tried turning it up to high and it started aggressively boiling, but the bubbles popped and it was finally able to reach 295 degrees without boiling over. I put a spoonful in water and it was nearly crack-hard, so I put it into a pan. The bottom of my pot had a layer of burned mixture stuck to it, and I still hadn't even gotten to the crack-hard you miraculously got to. I let it rest for 40 minutes before trying to cut it into squares. It was ridiculously covered in grease, I measured 1/2 cup of grease that I was able to literally squeeze out of it. DISGUSTING! It looked and smelled awful. I tried it and it didn't taste good either, so I threw it out. It was a waste of coffee, sugar, and cream. I wish you had given more detailed instructions so that I could have enjoyed these, but it just wasn't meant to be I guess. I'm doing my best not to sound like a selfish brat here, but it is frustrating to not receive enough instruction, especially when someone made it look easy. Anyway, I hope my feedback was helpful, I'm sure many people will comment at me to say I'm a hater but whatever.

From the sound of it for one you didn't stir it enough if it's burned. If you stir it and do it right, it doesn't burn.

For the almond candy, 1 cup of almonds. 1/2 heaped cup of sugar, 1/2 cup water. Make a soft candy not hard candy. Much better that way. Add the sugar and water, bring to a boil and then once all sugar is dissolved add the almond, let them absorb the moisture and cook. Take it off the pan once it has the leaves the side of the pan and once it is cooked enough to touch it should be like playdough. Roll out into a sheet, cut into pieces. Let it set and enjoy.

A candy making tip that has helped me a lot - heat the tin your boiled candy is turned out onto. It keeps it from hardening quite so fast, allowing you more time to spread it out.

Hi Anne, I was wondering if you could make a question an answer video? I’m a baker and I know quite a bit but there are questions I would love to be able to ask you. I’m very interested in food gastronomy and the science behind baking and cooking. I really love making candies and I was wondering is there any reason I couldn’t use powdered sugar to substitute for granulated sugar in a peanut brittle? I’ve never tried to do it but I was wondering if you have, or if it matters what form sugar is in when you are just going to melt it down for candy? Thanks, Dee🥰
