I love my garlic and this is something a little different and good. Ingredients:
1 cup water |
2 cups sugar |
1/2 cup light corn syrup |
1/2 cup red chile honey (honey that has red chilies in it) |
2 teaspoons salt |
2 tablespoons unsalted butter, at room temperature |
4 garlic cloves, roasted and pureed |
1/4 teaspoon baking soda |
Directions:
1. To make chili honey, take the honey and place 4 chilies (I roasted them slightly first) and then place in a jar overnight.
2. If you want, you can puree some of the chilies with the garlic for a extra kick.
3. For the Brittle: Line 2 baking sheets with parchment or waxed paper.
4. Combine the water and sugar in a large nonstick heavy-bottomed saucepan over medium-high heat.
5. Stir to dissolve the sugar, 4 to 5 minutes.
6. Add the corn syrup, honey, and salt, and stir constantly and slowly with a wooden spoon until the mixture comes to a gentle boil, about 2 minutes.
7. Continue stirring until the mixture reaches 290°F on a candy thermometer.
8. Remove the pan from the heat.
9. Add the butter, garlic puree, and baking soda and stir until the butter is completely melted, about 1 minute.
10. Pour the mixture onto the baking sheets, being careful as it is very hot, and spread it evenly with a rubber spatula.
11. Let cool completely.
12. Break the brittle into shards.
