What do you think my fellow Turkish Delight haters, will you try homemade Turkish Delight and become a convert like me?? Check out more Barry Tries here: ruclips.net/p/PLfItiEY3o1msmCdkx49hQcmgh39L02lf5
it was so cool watching it turn from what looked like mash potato to mashed turnip then a delicious treat lol, my auntie brought back Turkish delight from her holiday (the real ones) for me years ago it had nuts in was so much better than the chocolate bar ones.
Barry, you might not believe this. My name is Michael Lewis. I just want to thank you for your time showing the things that could help the people who have disabilities. I have Cerebral Palsy.
As a Turkish person it's always impressive seeing people making lokum at home. I don't think I've never heard someone making it at home, don't even know the recipe but yours looking great now I want some. You can eat it as is or you can squish and spread the Turkish delight a little bit between two petit beurre biscuits and eat it like a little sandwich, crisp biscuits and soft sweet lokum is delicious together.
Funnily enough, I was wondering "what if it was wrapped in baklava-style pastry" near the end of this. Though of course, it would all depend on the ratio of filo to lokum, since too much of one would likely overpower the other, both in terms of taste and texture. Still, it'd be interesting to see if such a "baklalokum" ("wrapped morsel"?) would actually work.
Hey Barry, I just wanted to say I'm proud of you at what you've accomplished. I know this is something you wanted for a long time and now you have your own studio. This is amazing
As a kid reading CS Lewis book’s, I thought turkish delight was turkey in a sticky sauce. It was later I discovered the sugar inducing coma candy that it is 😵 Great to see you in the new kitchen! Looks great and I’m sure it will be more comfortable when you remember where you put all your cooking tools lol.
Just so you know, you're supposed to make a 1-3 ratio of the powder that goes on them after they cool! It's supposed to be 1 part corn starch to 2 parts powdered sugar. But I guess using just powdered sugar makes it extra sweet
My Mum went to Turkey a few years ago and brought me back some Turkish delight. She bought back spearmint flavour and cool mint plus some lemon and lime flavour and rose. The mint ones tasted like toothpaste.
Hey Barry, I am from Turkey and a fun fact : In Turkish we call these as "Lokum" . I love the fact that your first video on the new studio is dedicated to Lokum🎉 I just realized I have never seen how they were actually made so this was so much fun to watch😊 There are so many other tastes available so you should definetely taste those too! Cheers
I still really enjoy your warm and homely format of your videos. I agree a dedicated frige in your garden kitchen will be a great touch. I'll miss seeing all the Lewis family's leftovers when you us the main fridge. Great video.
I am the only one in my household that likes the rose water version, when I make it I will stick to the lemon or other more friendly flavours. glad you tried it out, I agree with everyone else home-made is so much better then the shop, unless you can find one of those boutique shops that also make it from scratch.
I was genuinely grinning when I saw you pick your things up and went for the garden kitchen. It is lovely, congratulations. I wish you lots of fun, great food and happy days there! (Oh, and lots of videos!)
Good job Barry. Mint lokum is delicious, as is pomegranate - pomegranate and pistachio is a very popular combination. You don't need to take the mix to a very oragne colour; plain lokum is actually still quite pale.
I loved this episode Barry one of my favourite chocolates is Turkish delight plus it was so lovely seeing you cook in your new kitchen. Definitely looking forward to many more
My son saw these as a kid while watching Narnia and begged for me to get him some. After a month I find some here in Texas and he was soo excited. He ripped the box open and shoved one in his mouth and then commenced to spitting it out and sticking his hand in his mouth trying to remove all the wee bits still in his mouth. He was so disappointed, the poor baby. 😂
I am so happy you’ve started fast forwarding the chewing/eating parts of your videos. As someone with severe misophonia it actually helps me so much! I don’t have to mute the end of your videos (when you try the foods) now!🫡🙌
Proper Turkish delight is ridiculously addictive Tbh 😂 I always get a few boxes if I Go on holiday to Turkey if you do end up going to try the authentic stuff I really recommend marmaris beautiful place and everyone is so friendly and welcoming 😊
@@mrbarrylewisI don't know if they are 'crazy'. Over here (Belgium) the Turkish bakers remain rather traditional flavorwise. Almond, dates, pomegranate... The one standing out to me is rose (as in the flower). Haven't tasted it yet, but together with the rosewater might be a bit too much for me. :)
When I was in fifth grade, we read _The Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe,_ and one morning, my teacher brought in Turkish Delight that he and his wife had made for all of us. This brings back memories.
Ooooh, nice, Turkish delight can be really delicious! Just bought a violet flavoured one in a Turkish supermarket, love it (but you REALLY have to love floral flavours for that one...). Love the new kitchen, btw! 😃
Nice! I love Turkish Delight! Always was one of my favorites as a child in South Africa...Thank goodness we have an International Market near me where I can get these. I absolutely love the lemon ones...
When boiling sugar syrup, have a wet pastry brush you can run round the edge of the pan so you don't burn the little splashy bits up the side of the pan.
The kitchen looks great! Maybe a new playlist? Home making things you think you don’t like 😂 I never liked eggs or bacon until my husband made me some. Still won’t eat them in a restaurant though.
A fridge would really tie the room together, Barry. To seal the deal, in a few months, add a good stain or scorch (either is good) to the work top. nb. I was joking about that last bit. Your garden kitchen looks as cool as fork. Nice one. 👍👍👍
I have an old stove-washing thermometer it has become a staple in the kitchen the more because the end is pointy and great for seeing if your pork roll needs a couple of minutes more in the oven for chicken I push it in the breast from inside the cavity it then hits the spot in the meat that is often undercooked also a great tip for folks with electrical or digital thermometers.
Many years ago we went to a Greek restaurant in Sydney and they made Turkish Delight. I ordered it for dessert (thinking like the choc covered packet one, which I do love). Out it came, an inch square, icing sugar covered pink piece on the plate. I thought WHAT? that's it? Then I bit into it... OH MY GOODNESS absolute heaven in a square and in fact you didn't need any bigger piece, it was perfect! *Droolable*
Proper Turkish Delight is yum! I have a great shop in the neighbourhood that always has more than a dozen different flavours. I pick up a box of Turkish Delight and a box of halva every time I go there.
In the USA we call the place the husband gets sent in an argument to his place is called the “dog house “-lol, love your channel!! June Bug 🐞, praying you and your family, did you have fun in Florida on your travels!!
Here in the Pacific Northwest of USA (Washington for me), we have these things called Aplets and Cotlets. I don't know if they have them across the US, but it was a household staple for my growing up and is the same type of candy as a Turkish delight but in fruit flavors and sometimes with nuts. They are made in Wenatchee Washington and are so amazing!
Last Christmas I actually ordered some Turkish Delight, Walkers Scottish Shortbreads in a highland cow tin and a Scottish dancer tin, Dutch Speculaas cookies in a Delft tin, German pfeffernusse cookies, German stollen, Glenfiddich fruit cake, and yes a British plum pudding and a tin of Quality Street, from a place here in Canada called London Drugs. Delivered to my door. They have good sales for Christmas on international treats and it cost about $100. Everything was produced in the various countries. The Turkish delight came in an octagon box and had various flavors. Everything was yummy, The plum pudding was fun to set on fire and I didn't singe my eyebrows.
We used to go to a shop in London when visiting there, that from my recollection only sold Turkish delight, can’t for the life of me remember the name now, as some time ago, but our favourite was the pistachio one, absolutely no resemblance at all to the Fry’s chocolate bar
Nobody cooks until Boston shows up! 😎🐶 😂 I'd love to see a few videos on whatever mad concoction you can turn into angel delight.... Perhaps sweet and savoury? 🤔
Made Turkish delight as a kid bloody love it. My three year old seems to like it aswell if I get a bar out he's straight over. He's like his dad though loves his food 😂
A lot of places that make Turkish Delight "style" candy (like Fry's) use gelling agents (gelatine, pectin etc) to make is solid. Traditional TD doesnt have those gelling agents, you've done the traditional recipe proud!
Neat! Though i got to say - rahat lukum i had in Turkey was a lot... less solid than the one you ended up with. The cubes were somewhat translucent and when you squeeze them they felt half-way between jelly and marshmellow.
Your garden kitchen came together well, very nice. I am one who doesn't care for Turkish Delight candy because of the rose water. Everytime I tried it was overwhelming. It sounds like the freshly made product is not as strong in the rose water flavor. I will have to try it sometime.
The recipe used here is the traditional version which is quite different to the stuff you get in those chocolate covered Turkish Delight bars which use gelatine rather than corn starch. It would have been a lot easier to make if you stopped taking it off the heat, it has to have a steady low heat for best results but all things considered what you ended up with looked pretty good.
There was a local (To the pacific northwest part of America aka Oregon and Washington State) version called Applets and Codlets i'm pretty sure it's apple and aprocot version of Turkish Delight i never could like when I was young. Not sure if it's still around but if you do end up coming over to this part of the US it's something you could look for. Thanks for showing the process
Barry you need to get yourself one of those DJI gyro style handheld camera grip thingies if you're gonna keep up the one man band style of filming 🙂 You need a couple of fixed tripod points for your different shots as well - I look forward to more new kitchen content!
Christmas = turkish delight season. not the chocolate coated version, but the octagonal boxes filled with rose and lemon - complete with half a kilo of cornflour & icing sugar mix to prevent it from sticking. tis dangerous stuff indeed. I can't make a single box of it last more than 24 hours 😛 2nd only to lebkuchen for seasonal addictiveness. (and yes, vegan lebkuchen exists.)
I've never tried Turkish Delight, but I can get it in a supermarket here in Florida. It seems to be a very divisive product, much like Marmite. You either love it or you despise it.
7:10 Cane alcohol, also known as ethyl alcohol, is a type of alcohol that is produced from sugar cane and other sources of sugar. It is a colorless, odorless, and flammable liquid with a distinct taste, and it is the main ingredient in alcoholic beverages. Cane alcohol has a variety of uses, both in the food and beverage industry and in the industrial and medical fields. Cane alcohol is a versatile product that can be used to make a wide variety of products. In the food and beverage industry, it is used to produce alcoholic beverages such as beer, wine, and spirits. It is also used in the production of non-alcoholic beverages such as soft drinks, energy drinks, and fruit juices. In the industrial field, it is used as a solvent, fuel, and in the production of plastics and other industrial chemicals. In the medical field, it is used as an antiseptic and disinfectant. Cane alcohol is produced by fermenting sugar cane or other sources of sugar. The process begins with crushing the sugar cane to extract the juice. This juice is then fermented with yeast, which converts the sugar into ethanol. The ethanol is then distilled to produce the pure cane alcohol. The fermentation process can take anywhere from several days to several weeks, depending on the type of yeast and the concentration of the sugar. After the fermentation process is complete, the distillation process begins. This process removes impurities and produces the pure cane alcohol. Cane alcohol can have a variety of health benefits when consumed in moderation. It can help to reduce the risk of heart disease and certain types of cancer. It can also help to boost the immune system and improve overall health. Additionally, it can help to reduce stress and improve mood. Cane alcohol can also be beneficial for the skin. It can be used as a natural moisturizer and can help to reduce wrinkles and other signs of aging. It can also help to reduce inflammation and improve the overall health of the skin. Cane alcohol should be consumed in moderation, as it can have negative effects when consumed in excess. Excessive alcohol consumption can lead to health issues such as liver damage, heart disease, and certain types of cancer. Additionally, it can impair judgment and coordination, which can lead to dangerous situations. Alcohol consumption can also interfere with medications, so it is important to speak with a doctor before consuming alcohol while taking any medications. Additionally, alcohol consumption can increase the risk of accidents, so it is important to drink responsibly.
I’m not overly keen on the Fry’s Turkish delight but love the proper stuff dusted with icing sugar. Not sure if I’d like it with the pistachios but love the swirly one which is rolled in coconut, you don’t see it outsideturkey much apart from at those really expensive continental markets. The Sultan’s brand in rose & lemon is the best one you can get here in Britain, BTW why is it usually in hexagonal boxes regardless of the brand?
What do you think my fellow Turkish Delight haters, will you try homemade Turkish Delight and become a convert like me??
Check out more Barry Tries here: ruclips.net/p/PLfItiEY3o1msmCdkx49hQcmgh39L02lf5
Will definitely try it at Home!😊😊😊😊❤❤❤
Turkish Delight always reminds me of my Dad, who loved it.
Homemade looks great, will give it a go.
Garden kitchen looking good 👍

For the Brits, use morning coffee biscuits or rich tea biscuits (morning coffee have the same shape as petit beurre)
What? Why have I just heard of this?
This!
Had some at a turkish wedding a few years ago. Really miss it and the people.
Hey Barry, I just wanted to say I'm proud of you at what you've accomplished. I know this is something you wanted for a long time and now you have your own studio. This is amazing

Great to see you in the new kitchen! Looks great and I’m sure it will be more comfortable when you remember where you put all your cooking tools lol.
I'm glad I'm not the only one who thought that!
LOL, I always knew what it was but I suppose you wouldn’t if you’d never had it, the book doesn’t explain what it is.
Ha! I was surprised that Barry made no reference to the White Witch in this video. I wonder if his was good enough to betray your family?
Just so you know, you're supposed to make a 1-3 ratio of the powder that goes on them after they cool! It's supposed to be 1 part corn starch to 2 parts powdered sugar. But I guess using just powdered sugar makes it extra sweet

rosewater (the traditional flavour) takes some getting used to, but you can easily replace it with like vanilla

Any crazy flavours?

Oh I LOVE the studio!
I like all the green plants. It looks good.
Wow so proud of you!!❤

Love the new kitchen and the lighting is amazing congratulations 🎉
Barry, This is a good way to transition people over to your garden kitchen. Keep it up :)
Ooooh, nice, Turkish delight can be really delicious! Just bought a violet flavoured one in a Turkish supermarket, love it (but you REALLY have to love floral flavours for that one...). Love the new kitchen, btw! 😃
OooooO is this the new spot, no more bothering the family indoors 😂 loving it looks great
I know you said it's a bit bodged at the moment but I'm still liking the look of the new garden kitchen!
Best reaction ever to the finished product! Love your videos. x
Garden Kitchen Studio looks amazing! Well done! ❤
Your new cooking pad looks amazing! Congrats on the new studio!
Woww awesome job Barry 👏
I love your eye chart wall art. It's totally stonkin. 😂😂
Your kitchen is beautiful!
Barry! I know you keep saying it's all a bit bodgy rn, but the magic of filmmaking doesn't show that, the set's looking fly! Nice one
Studio looks great Mr. Barry. Congratulations 🎉
I made it once for Christmas about 20 years ago. My family still talks about it.
Nice! I love Turkish Delight! Always was one of my favorites as a child in South Africa...Thank goodness we have an International Market near me where I can get these. I absolutely love the lemon ones...
I absolutely love Turkish Delight, both the original Lokum version (of which I've only eaten the rose version) and the chocolate version from Fry's.
Love the new place! And also nice recipe. :)
Loving the new set B man
Love the new studio, fun Ashens figure too
Love the kitchen!
that looks really good!!
I'm tempted to make some now. My mam would love it!
When boiling sugar syrup, have a wet pastry brush you can run round the edge of the pan so you don't burn the little splashy bits up the side of the pan.
Oh my God Barry, I've been wanting to make this for months now, had no idea that your first Kitshed video would be so useful for me. Tooth decay ahoy!
The kitchen looks great! Maybe a new playlist? Home making things you think you don’t like 😂 I never liked eggs or bacon until my husband made me some. Still won’t eat them in a restaurant though.
I love Turkish Delight! Takes me back to my childhood, reading The Lion the Witch and the Wardrobe! PS the garden kitchen looks fab!
Is this the first video in your new kitchen (studio) Barry? It looks great!! Good for you!
Yeah, it's a bit bodged but getting there!
It looks amazing!!
A fridge would really tie the room together, Barry. To seal the deal, in a few months, add a good stain or scorch (either is good) to the work top.
nb. I was joking about that last bit. Your garden kitchen looks as cool as fork. Nice one. 👍👍👍
I have an old stove-washing thermometer it has become a staple in the kitchen the more because the end is pointy and great for seeing if your pork roll needs a couple of minutes more in the oven for chicken I push it in the breast from inside the cavity it then hits the spot in the meat that is often undercooked also a great tip for folks with electrical or digital thermometers.
im so glad boston will still be making appearances in the garden kitchen. id miss him otherwise
The mint flavour is so refreshing I love it more than the rose
Many years ago we went to a Greek restaurant in Sydney and they made Turkish Delight. I ordered it for dessert (thinking like the choc covered packet one, which I do love). Out it came, an inch square, icing sugar covered pink piece on the plate. I thought WHAT? that's it? Then I bit into it... OH MY GOODNESS absolute heaven in a square and in fact you didn't need any bigger piece, it was perfect! *Droolable*
Looks yummy but I think I will buy some Turkish delight & thanks Barry 😋👍🤗
Love Turkish Delight, sweet as baklava. You should try making that Barry!
Tada.... ruclips.net/video/94UkIWNuZfY/видео.html from the vault lol
It's dark in the kitchen , yea that tends to happen when you shut blinds
Proper Turkish Delight is yum!
I have a great shop in the neighbourhood that always has more than a dozen different flavours. I pick up a box of Turkish Delight and a box of halva every time I go there.
Tip to dust the outside use a mix of 50 / 50 icing sugar and corn flour.
You should get brass look plug sockets and switches. I think it would look good.
We get a homemade one from a local market stall, loads of different flavours, apple and honey are the best!
Apple sounds awesome

I think the great thing is you can customise the flavours etc with making homemade, if it's a texture thing, may be best to avoid
Hi Barry!!! Love the new video. :) also, can you try making the timpano? ☺️☺️☺️
Hey thanks! Yep, I have that on the to-do list!
Discovered this through narnia and have loved it since! How did you discovered barry?
My Nan lol

Made this and cant say i like it. Wayyy too sweet to be enjoyable.
Not sure what i was expecting, given the amount of sugar used.
Green mint Turkish delight covered in dark chocolate sounds amazing 😊😊😊
