How to Make Tanghulu 🍓👨🏻‍🍳🍭

Ingredients

• 1 cup Granulated Sugar (use standard white granulated sugar)
• 0.5 cup Water (room temperature)
• 1 cup Strawberries (washed, hulled, and halved if large)
• 1 cup Grapes (seedless, washed, dried)
• 8 pieces Wooden Skewers (soaked in water 10 minutes to prevent burning)

Instructions

1. Prepare the Sugar Syrup (Tangar)

   Combine 1 cup granulated sugar and ½ cup water in a saucepan. Place over medium‑high heat and bring to a boil without stirring.

   Time: PT2M

2. Watch for Light Brown Color

   Continue boiling until the syrup turns a light caramel color and you see steady bubbles. This usually takes 3–4 minutes.

   Time: PT3M

3. Prepare Fruit and Skewers

   While the syrup is cooking, wash strawberries and grapes, pat dry, and thread them onto soaked wooden skewers, alternating grape and strawberry pieces.

   Time: PT5M

4. Dip Fruit into Syrup

   When the syrup reaches the desired color, remove the pan from heat. Quickly dip each fruit‑skewer into the hot syrup, allowing excess to drip back into the pan.

   Time: PT1M

5. Serve Immediately

   Place the coated skewers on a paper‑towel‑lined plate to absorb any drips. Serve while the glaze is still glossy.

   Time: PT1M
