    I made this rather successfully, if I do say so myself. My only issue is the syneresis. After it cooled in the fridge I cut the lokum into squares and then dusted them with the mixture of powdered sugar and cornstarch. However within 3 hours of dusting them they absorbed all of the powder and remain sticky. Does anyone have a fix for this?

    • @GreyPot
      @GreyPot  2 года назад +56

      To prevent the Turkish Delight from sweating, be sure to do the following:
      1. Allow 6-8 hours for it to set.
      2. Initially dust it with cornstarch, and leave it aside for another day.
      3. Cut the Turkish delights into cubes, roll them in corn starch, and set aside for 30 minutes before dusting with powdered sugar.
      4. Store in a closed, but not airtight, container, as airtight containers tend to enhance sweating.

    Instead of putting it in a glass bowl to cool down, if you have silicone icecube trays they should work too. So if you have some of those funky shapes, like a star or a circle, then you could have fun turkish delight shapes as well with little fuss. Just pop them out of their mold when done, dust, and serve.

      The only slight difference I seem to remember was that the final DUSTING was called SHERBET, and was (I think) made from icing sugar and acetic acid powder, rather than the cornflower mix you used. This gave it a sharp tang.
      Please advise.

    The lokums have a very aromatic, almost floral taste, so if you prefer a more acidic fruity taste I suggest adding a few tablespoons more lemon juice. Some salty pistacchios are also a nice addition

      Yeah...it is a very labour intensive process to produce it. Also, some of the ingredients are quite expensive (such as the exotic nuts and certain flavourings/spices etc). Imagine doing this on an industrial scale.
      So ultimately you pay for that labour and such use of scarce materials used in the preparation, hence the expensive price tag.

      @Marko Laaksonen Growing up in the UK, we have a brand of chocolate-covered Turkish Delight called Fry's (which was a confectionery company later bought by Cadbury's). It has always been produced in the UK but now I think it is produced in Poland, since the factory in the UK that once prepared it is now closed. Obviously not authentic.
      For years I thought that was real Turkish Delight until some friends from Egypt brought us some real Turkish Delight that they bought in the Middle East. That was when I learned what real Turkish Delight was and I've never looked back.

      Orange Turkish dessert that you can stir in (just prior to transferring to the mould), cranberries! Or some other bright dried fruit like cherries.
      (I’m thinking to try this but for a mould, I’ll just use a cookie sheet. Big flat surface with a 1/2” edge/lip. Then after cutting I should end up with sugar cube sized treats?)
      *i have a very old glass pan, that’s thick (possibly Pyrex) but it’s a cookie sheet 12”X24” with a 3/4” lip. It’ll be perfect. (That my granny gave me)
