Adlandpro Community Cookbook--CANDY
5/9/2006 5:41:42 PM
As children now watch T.V., play games, and listen to music, making candy was a favorite activity for a winter Sunday afternoon. Maybe it was fudge or perhaps popcorn balls but oh so delightful was candy making time. Here are favorite candy and confection recipes of our Adlandpro friends. Look dentist, here we come.

Hello Mary,



I didn't know where else to put this and since it's a sweet treat I decided to place under candy.


This is a treat tah is served on December 12th every year in honor of our Patron Saint Spyridon of /Corfu , Island. This  treat is only served this way on Corfu  Island. I woud love the feed back if anyone tries this recipe.



Greek Corfiot Christmas Treat


Ingredients:

2 ½ pounds of wheat

1 to 2 pomengranate (cleaned)

1 cup sesame

2 to 3 teaspoons black pepper

3 to 4 tablespoons coriander

1 ½ cups white almonds

1 ½ cups sugar

½ cup ouzo


Instructions:

First we clean the wheat thoroughly. Then we put it in a pot to boil. ( Wheat is ready when it has split) Once ready we drain it. We wait till it cools about 1 hr. or so then we place it in a big pan we mix all the ingredients together. We put it in the refrigerator for another hour. It’s ready to serve.
