Jordan Almonds Sugar Coated Almonds Recipes

Steps:

• Line a baking sheet with waxed paper.
• Cook and stir almonds and sugar in a skillet over medium heat, stirring constantly, until sugar melts and almonds turn golden brown, 5 to 10 minutes. Transfer almonds to the prepared baking sheet to cool completely.

Steps:

• Combine the water, sugar, and cinnamon in a saucepan over medium heat; bring to a boil; add the almonds. Cook and stir the mixture until the liquid evaporates and leaves a syrup-like coating on the almonds. Pour the almonds onto a baking sheet lined with waxed paper. Separate almonds using forks. Allow to cool about 15 minutes.

Steps:

• For the fondant:.
• Put the sugar and water into a large saucepan, set it over the fire, and stir until the sugar is thoroughly dissolved; then stop stirring.
• Wash down the inside of the pan to the syrup's edge with a small brush dipped in water.
• When the syrup first boils, add the glucose or the cream of tartar.
• Continue the boiling without stirring until, when tested in cold water, it forms a soft ball, or registers 240° on the thermometer.
• Remove from the fire at once, allow to stand for four minutes, or until the air-bubbles have ceased, then pour into a large wet platter, a wet basin, or on a marble slab between candy bars. The syrup should not be deeper than one and a half inches.
• Set it in a cool place, and when it has cooled down so much you can comfortably bear a finger in the middle of the syrup, begin to cream it with a wooden spoon or a hardwood paddle.
• Turn the sugar backward and forward, leaving no part untouched, until the whole mass becomes white and opaque.
• Knead till smooth and free from lumps. Wet and wring a small towel, place it over the fondant, and allow it to remain there for at least one hour. This is called the curing process.
• Remove the cloth, and knead just as you would bread dough.
• Keep in an air-tight jar. If left exposed to the air, it will get hard and dry. Small quantities can be taken out and flavored, then colored to form many pleasing effects.
• The fondant can be colored and flavored while it is warm. (It can be colored cold too, but it's easiest when it's warm.)
• Covering the almonds:.
• Melt the fondant for covering the almonds.
• See that the almonds are totally dry after blanching and peeling.
• Dip them one and one in the melt fondant, pick up with a fork, tap the fork against the edge of the pot and wipe the underside of the excess coating.
• Put the almonds to dry on wax paper. After about 5 minutes, when the top has hardened, turn the almonds around so that the bottoms may dry.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 250 degrees F (120 degrees C). Lightly grease a 10x15 inch jellyroll pan.
• Lightly beat the egg white; add water, and beat until frothy but not stiff. Add the nuts, and stir until well coated. Mix the sugar, salt, and cinnamon, and sprinkle over the nuts. Toss to coat, and spread evenly on the prepared pan.
• Bake for 1 hour in the preheated oven, stirring occasionally, until golden. Allow to cool, then store nuts in airtight containers.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 300 degrees.
• Line a baking sheet with foil and lightly spray with vegetable oil.
• In a large bowl combine sugar and cinnamon.
• In another large bowl beat egg white until slightly frothy. Stir in vanilla and salt.
• Add almonds to egg mixture and toss to coat.
• Then pour almonds into cinnamon sugar mixture and toss to coat.
• Spread sugar coated almonds on lined baking sheet.
• Bake 25 minutes; stir after 10 minutes.
• Let cool and remove from pan with slotted spoon.

Steps:

• Line a baking sheet with foil. Grease the foil with 1 tablespoon butter; set aside. In a large heavy skillet, combine the almonds, sugar and remaining butter. Cook and stir over medium heat for 6-8 minutes or until sugar is golden brown., Remove from the heat; carefully stir in vanilla. Spread onto prepared baking sheet; immediately sprinkle with salt. Cool before breaking into pieces. Store in an airtight container.

Steps:

• Put all ingredients (except for the almonds) into a bowl and microwave at 600 Watt for 2 minutes.
• Add the almonds into the bowl and mix thoroughly. Put it another 2 minutes into the microwave oven.
• Mix again and microwave it another 2 minutes.
• Let the almonds cool on a baking sheet or paper. (I usually use a plastic tray.) Use two forks to separate sticking almonds immediately from each other. Enjoy!
