Transform Freeze-Dried Fruit Into Tropical Candy | Tangy Tamarind Jelly Candy | Pastries with Paola

Time to leave your store-bought candy behind and create your own fruity jelly candy at home using tangy tamarind pate de fruit and a delicious freeze-dried fruit sugar coating. In the words of Chef Paola Velez, it’s time to “candy it up” using the tangy-meets-savory tropical fruit from her childhood—tamarind—and mixing it with liquid pectin to create the perfect gummy texture. The gelatin mixture has to chill overnight, but it’s worth the wait, we promise. Then it’s time to make your fruity candy coating by taking a rolling pin to your favorite freeze-dried fruit. Toss your tamarind candies in the sweet fruit powder and you’ve got the perfect bite-sized delight for kids and kids-at-heart! #Tamarind #Fruit #Tropical #Candy #Recipe 0:00 Introduction 0:36 What is tamarind 1:19 How to cook Tamarind Jelly Candy 4:24 Homemade candy sugars 6:34 How to cut Tamarind Pate de Fruit 8:58 Finished Tamarind Jelly Candies Tamarind Pate de Fruit recipe: https://www.foodandwine.com/recipes/tamarind-pate-de-fruit Read more about this gorgeous homemade candy: https://www.foodandwine.com/cooking-techniques/pastries-with-paola-tamarind-pate-de-fruit Thanks for watching!
