How to make a sugar man

When I go out to play, I always go to some scenic spots. In these scenic spots with historical sites, I always see people selling sugar figures. They use sugar syrup to paint on the chopping board. For example, they can make various shapes such as butterflies, dragons, flowers, etc. They can also blow out different small animals. It is fun and delicious, but the price sold outside is not cheap, and it is not fun to play with it. It is better to learn to make it at home.

Sugar painting

Material

Rock sugar, water (ratio is 1:1)

practice

1. After the water boils, add rock sugar and stir while cooking.

2. Cook until golden brown and then simmer

3. Find a plastic cutting board, make sure it is plastic.

4. Use a spoon to scoop a spoonful of syrup onto a plastic cutting board, pour out the pattern you like, and press a skewer onto the syrup.

5. After it cools down, use a knife to cut the sugar painting from the plastic cutting board.

Sugar Lace

Material

10g lace premix (main ingredients are gelatin powder, sugar powder and protein powder), about 14g boiling water

practice

1. Pour boiling water into the lace premix and mix well.

2. Beat with one end of an electric whisk.

3. When the whisk is lifted, the lace batter becomes thick but still flowable.

4. Quickly apply the lace paste on the silicone mold.

5. Use a scraper to smooth it out and scrape off the excess lace paste.

6. In summer, place it in an air-conditioned room to dry for about 3 hours (depending on the actual situation).

7. Gently pull the silicone mold with your hands. If the lace can be separated quickly, it means it can be demolded.

8. If not in use temporarily, put it in a fresh-keeping box, refrigerate it, and separate it with silicone paper to prevent it from sticking.

maltose

Material

Wheat, glutinous rice (you can quantify it according to how much you make!)

practice

1. Soak the wheat in water and let it germinate to 3 to 4 cm.

2. Chop the malt.

3. After the glutinous rice is cooked, mix it with malt.

4. Ferment the mixed glutinous rice for 4 hours. Don’t be impatient.

5. Filter out the juice converted from glutinous rice and simmer over high heat until it becomes thick.

6. After the maltose solidifies, it will turn into amber sugar cubes. When you eat it, heat the sugar cubes and stir them with chopsticks.
