Turkish Delight

[Aslan'sFriend410]

One of the other teachers at school brought some for the other techers and students to try the other day. I had heard mixed reactions from prople who had tried it. I just had to try some myself. I actualy liked it! There are a lot of different kinds though and I have found several recipes for it. Has anyone else tried some? What did you think?

I like Turkish Delight!!!!
Though, its really i think rare for children to like it (though I am 13 :D ) you have to have like a really acquired taste, becuase even though it is sweet, it is sort of perfumeny, and some people don't like that....but I DO!!! :D :D
btw, I DO BELIEVE IN NARNIA! I DO! I DO!

Turkish Delight
Ingredients
Makes about 500g (18 oz)
Water - 250 ml (8 fl oz)
Gelatine - 25g (1 oz)
Sugar - 400g (14 oz)
Citric acid - ¼ tsp
Vanilla essence - ½ tsp
Triple-strength rose water - 2 tsp
Pink food colouring - few drops, optional
Icing sugar - 50g (2 oz)
Cornflour - 25g (1 oz)
Procedure
• Place the water in a large saucepan and sprinkle the gelatine on to the liquid. Set aside until the gelatine is spongy. Add the sugar and citric acid, place the pan over a gentle heat and stir constantly until dissolved. Bring the mixture to the boil and boil for 20 minutes without stirring. Remove from the heat and allow to stand for 10 minutes.
• Stir in the vanilla essence, rose water and colouring if used. Pour into a wetted 15 cm (6 inch) square baking tin. Leave uncovered in a cool place for 24 hours.
• Sift the icing sugar and cornflour together on to a sheet of greaseproof paper. Turn the Turkish delight on to the paper and cut into squares using a sharp knife dipped in the icing sugar mixture. Toss well in the mixture, so that all the sides are coated. Pack in airtight containers lined with waxed paper and dusted with the remaining icing sugar and cornflour

It does have a rich taste. But I liked it way more than I expected to. I ate more of it than enyone else did.
