Strawberry Tanghulu 🍓✨

Ingredients

• 10 pieces Strawberries (medium size, washed and thoroughly dried)
• 1 cup Granulated Sugar (regular white sugar)
• 0.5 cup Water (for the sugar syrup)
• 1 cup Ice Water (water with plenty of ice cubes for rapid cooling)
• 10 pieces Wooden Skewers (pointed end for easy insertion)

Instructions

1. Prepare Strawberries

   Rinse the strawberries, pat them completely dry with paper towels, then insert a wooden skewer through the stem end of each berry.

   Time: PT5M

2. Set Up Ice Water Bath

   Fill a medium bowl with 1 cup of ice water and set aside.

   Time: PT2M

3. Make Sugar Syrup

   Combine the sugar and ½ cup water in a saucepan. Heat over medium‑high, **do not stir**, and watch as the mixture turns a clear amber color. When it reaches a deep golden hue (about 300 °F), remove from heat.

   Time: PT8M

   Temperature: medium‑high heat

4. Dip Strawberries

   Using tongs, dip each skewered strawberry into the hot syrup, allowing excess to drip off, then immediately submerge it in the ice‑water bath for a split second to set the glaze.

   Time: PT5M

5. Cool and Serve

   Place the glazed strawberries on a sheet of parchment paper. Let them sit at room temperature until the coating hardens completely (about 5 minutes).

   Time: PT5M
