Strawberry Tanghulu is having a moment on TikTok. It is inspired by a sweet street food snack sold in China, Japan and Korea.
Basically this is strawberries dipped in sugar syrup that will harden into a crisp sugar shell.
- Make the sugar coating as thick or thin as you prefer.
- If your sugar coating isn’t hardening make sure the sugar syrup is at the correct temp.
- The sugar dipped strawberries can be transferred to parchment paper to harden or quickly dipped in ice water.
