CHEF’S ADVICE

Ingredients

No ingredients.

Step

For all these recipes, it’s important to respect scrupulously
the boiling point:
Too small cooking = no crystal formation
Too strong cooking = too thick sugar crust

The higher the alcohol degree, the larger the crystals grow.
The sugar doesn’t dissolve in acohol.
To avoid an undesired crystals formation, you should never
mix the syrup when the temperature is over 102°C.
Warning: to prevent an early crystallization, you shoud
never mix in an unsaturated syrup.
