STRAWBERRY RUSSIAN CANDY - MARMELAD - WOW !

---

Russian Marmalade — an easy sweet homemade treat.Today I made it with strawberry, because I love the flavours and its a perfect summer fruit. We may think of marmalade as fruit preserve, but it is definitely not the case in Russia. In Russia marmalade is a traditional jelly candy typically made of fruit. They are usually in fruit shape and are deliciously sweet and sour. It is one of the favorite candies for many children in Russia. It looks a lot like jello candy, but it doesn’t taste quite the same.

Ingredients

150 gr of strawberry puree ( around 200-250 gr of fresh strawberries)

130 gr of sugar

4 gr of agar agar or 16 gr of gelatine ( agar is better if you want to keep it for longer) with gelatine you have to keep them in a fridge.

30 ml of water

Directions

Step 1 : Prepare your strawberries wash and clean them. Chop them into small pieces and place into a pan. Add sugar and cook on low heat for 5-10 min until softened. You can also use frozen strawberries but cooking time might be longer.

Step 2 : In a small bowl add your gelatine or agar and add water. Leave it to puff up for 10 min or so.

Step 3 : Take your strawberry sugar mixture place in a blender or food processor and blitz until pureed. You can also use already made puree if you wish. Then add the strawberry puree back into the pan and then add your gelatine or agar. Mix everything and cook until dissolved.

Step 4 : Prepare a deep dish, place parchment paper and spray with cooking oil, otherwise it will get stuck. Make sure to double the recipe if you want to make more. You can also use any moulds or shapes that you like. Once you pour your mixture, place in the fridge to set completely. This can take few hours.

Step 5 : Take a board, add caster sugar and then place your strawberry marmalade ontop, then add more sugar on top, use your hand to cover the sticky bits and get rid of any excess sugar. Coat from the other side and cut into desired shape. Enjoy straight away and they dont last very long, so best eaten same day!
