Pear candied fruit

1 serving


take such a pear variety, which is slowly boiled during cooking. pears can be boiled whole, cut into halves or quarters, removing the core. prepared pears are boiled in acidified water for 8 - 15 minutes and immediately cooled in cold water. Then they are poured with hot syrup prepared from sugar and water, in which pears were cooked, put in a cool place for 3- 4 hours, after which they cook for 3- 4 minutes, and then let stand for 10 - 12 hours. cooking with standing is repeated 3-4 times, until the pears become transparent. at the end of cooking, 1-2 g of vanilla sugar and 1-2 teaspoons of citric acid solution can be added (1 spoon of crystalline citric acid is dissolved in 2 spoons of hot water). then fruit is removed from syrup, washed in warm water, dried. then they are dipped in boiled sugar syrup, laid out on a rare net, where they quickly dry out: a shiny sugar crust forms around the fruit.
