How to make tanghulu using a microwave 🔐 save this post for later!!
Ingredients: fruit(s) of your choice, sugar, water, toothpicks
1. Stick toothpicks into your fruits and freeze them
2. Add 1 water : 2 sugar into a microwave safe bowl (do not stir)
3. Microwave for 30 seconds then stop and check (repeat this until sugar starts to turn golden brown
4. When the sugar is almost ready only microwave for 15 seconds each (sugar will burn with that extra 15 seconds😭 learned my lesson the hard way..don’t risk it guys)
5. Your sugar is ready if it looks like mine in the video or do the ice water test (drop little bit of sugar into ice water and if it becomes crunchy, it’s ready)
6. Dip the frozen fruits into the sugar syrup and lay them on the parchment paper (tanghulu will be ready within 5 seconds of dipping because the fruit is frozen and cold)
The best tip is to freeze your fruits because no one wants warm tanghulu😭 It’s easier to dip as well because the fruit is secure on the toothpick!
⚠️ also please please be careful because boiling sugar can burn you really bad!! I learned this the hard way as well…⚠️
Anyways, my favorite tanghulus are pineapple and tangerine🍍🍊 What’s your favorite?
