Also keep in mind, this book is set during WW2, when England was hardcore rationing all the sugar. These kids probably hadn't seen a piece of candy in 3 years, and wouldn't see one again until the 1950s. Doesn't justify betraying one's family, but the psychology makes a tiny bit more sense.

I wanted to see if anyone brought that up. Not to mention rationing all kinds of foods; many kids were mildly malnourished as well. Here in the US my late mother-in-law once reminisced about getting sent to "play" at a local church (not their denomination but...) because the church staff would hand out vitamins to the kids just for being there.

Given that he lived in the UK during the war, with rationing meaning that children hardly had sweets at all (the official substitute for ice lollies (popsicles) was carrot on a stick), Turkish Delight would probably have seemed like the most amazing thing to him. Also - since it was given to him by the White Witch, it may have been imbued with additional magical qualitites to keep him enthralled by her.

Just remember that cheaper Turkish Delight, is made with gelatine. Real Turkish delight is made with starch as Emmy has done. The gelatine version tends to be rubbery and bouncy……real lokum is tender and smooth and melts in the mouth, nothing like a gummy sweet. Many people think they hate Turkish delight, but they’ve never tasted the real thing.

I do not remember what flavor, but it was sent to an ex-friend of mine while we were in college at the time and he let me try some.

another important thing to remember with edmund choosing the turkish delights over his family is that it’s not just that the white witch probably enchanted them, but also that he was a young boy who had undergone several years of sugar rationing by that time due to the war - I’m pretty sure a lot of people would betray their family for a handful of gumdrops by that point

@lsmmoore1 Жыл бұрын

And also, Edmund didn't know it was betrayal. He'd known basically nothing about Narnia at the point he accepted the sugar, and once he's told the Queen is bad, he doesn't want to believe it. Which is made more likely by him getting the first taste of candy he's had in a long time.

Turkish delights is a memory from my childhood. My mom's mom gave her a recipe and she use to make me Turkish delights for my lunch. I saved my Turkish delights for after school and I shared them with my neighbor Harriet. She was my best friend. She was a 80 year old woman who I loved dearly. Her son was in the military and he got to know me through letters from his mom. When he came home I got to meet him and he was delightful just like his mom. They would have dinner with me and my mom. Harriet taught me how to crochet and knit. She would help me with my homework when mom worked late too and picked me up after school. So this brings back great memories for me. ❤️☺️

I first had Turkish Delight when I was 16. My aunt and uncle gifted me a summer (6 weeks) in Europe with them. We went to the Grand Bazaar in Istanbul where I was introduced to the most delicious confection I had ever tasted. I tried to describe it in my journal, but couldn’t put the words together that did it justice! I’m 70 years old now, but will never forget my first taste of Delight!

This definitely brings back a LOT of memories! I grew up reading The Chronicles of Narnia and begged my mom for a month (as a kid) to do the candy. I remember she made something similar with coco milk and it definitely tastes good. Eventually she got a recipe from our European Neighbors (can't remember if they were Turkish) and she definitely made the candy. Eventually this became our "comfort candy" for me growing up and I still have the original recipe with me. It's just a bit bittersweet remembering this as she's long gone for over 20 years ago. 😥

🇹🇷 This is somewhat off topic, but only a part of turkey is actually in Europe! It’s sandwiched between Europe and Asia, most of it is in Asia, and realistically only a small bit of it is in Europe. ( also turkey is very diverse, a lot of us are actually some form of Middle East ethnicity rather than European, just like how white Arabs and white Armenians are a thing it doesn’t mean the majority are European. a lot of us are actually brown: Arab Turks/ Armenians etc. and then the others who are more European but we aren’t majority European which is a common misconception) thought I’d give a quick geography lesson since I’m from there and this is a somewhat common perception about us ( in terms of geography) :) I wish more schools in the US would teach world geography rather than just focusing on the US and Europe.

I’m Turkish living in the US and always LOVE seeing you make and react to Turkish foods & treats! I love a variety of flavors of lokum (that’s what we call it in Turkish), pistachio might be my favorite, rose is also lovely (and, it’s so squishy!). Fun fact: Aslan means lion in Turkish 🦁 if I were to guess a reason for corn starch vs gelatin it would probably be bc gelatin is a pig product, corn starch makes it halal. I never ate Jello growing up because of that. edit: that last part was just a guess and it’s most likely that the recipe honestly works better with corn starch than gelatin!

Emmy this is so awesome. You've made me cry bringing up precious memories from my childhood. My grandmother gifted me The Chronicles of Narnia series for my 8th birthday and I completely fell in love. I wanted to try Turkish delight so bad that she hunted up a recipe, or several recipes I imagine, and worked at it until she had produced delicious Turkish delight. I'm in my sixties so we're talking quite a while ago, but I still remember getting that sugar powder all over myself and everything because that was the step that I was most involved in, and of course, how delish it was. She tried several different flavors over the years and my favorites were pistachio and orange blossom water...two separate ones, not together. Anyway thanks for the memories and I'm so happy for your children that they have a mom that will encourage their fantasies like this. Love to you and your family❤ thank you, Susan

If you do citrus flavors, I strongly suggest to *use the juice* along with the essence (especially if you are not a fan of floral flavors). Also, *lime pairs really well with vanilla* as it almost gives it a keylime pie kind of taste. Finally, you have to try it with *Orgeat syrup* which you can then coat with a blend of vanilla sugar, almond flour and corn starch.

When cooked and hot it will not look like in your case, it will be more like gummy and really stiff. On this stage add rose water and optionally pistachios.

The Narnia Chronicles are my favorite series! Back in Mexico I was growing up in a small village where books besides our textbooks were still not a thing. Absolutely no one had the luxury to read books for fun and entertainment. So when we came to the USA my fourth grade teacher had a small shelf with many books to read and The Lion, The Witch and the Wardrobe was the first book I ever read. At that time I had also been diagnosed with Leukemia so I stopped going to school and started my treatment. My sister told the teacher how much I loved the book although I never got to finish it and so she was sweet enough to gift me the book. Honestly a great memory of mine and a huge love for that book from the series to this day.

Cadbury makes chocolate coated Turkish delight bars in Australia and you can find them absolutely everywhere - they don’t taste much like authentic Turkish delight and they really divide people but they are my absolute favourite. I like the authentic kind too.

A company called Liberty Orchards makes their own version of this candy using apples and apricots as well as flavorings such as lemon and rose. Some of the candies have walnuts or pistachios in them (the rose and pistachio combo gives me life!), and some are even chocolate dipped. It's good to know that these candies can be made at home. ~ Anastacia in Cleveland

@tracys.5143 Жыл бұрын

Pumpkin has a relatively low flavour profile, and especially if underripe, so it would pick up the flavours of the spices - cloves and cinnamon mainly, and give a strong impression of spiced apple. Underripe pawpaw works the same. 😊

I grew up on loukoumi, as we call it in Greece. It was a great treat for us back then. Or sandwiched between two crackers, as a little afternoon snack. Perfect as a welcome treat to your guests too. Some cafés would bring you one with your coffee. Delightful, indeed. It's not made for binge-eating, just one at the time, maybe two. Rose is still my favourite flavour. I'm glad she liked it, I've noticed that people who taste it later in life are not particularly impressed.

Recently, I got to eat some that was pistachio flavoured, and it was the best I had ever had. You should try making it with pistachio!

Turkish Lokum is incredible, extremely luxurious for a sweet that's been around so many centuries, however its really hard to get it to store well when its made traditionally, which is obviously vastly superior to the more gummy mass produced stuff. Hope there is a confectioner in your region who specialises in Turkish delight, or do as Emmy did.
