Oranges in chocolate

Do you make chocolate yourself?

Julia, no, I'm tempering the finished chocolate

[4er-ta]

4er-ta,

Julia, no, I'm tempering the finished chocolate

And where to read about it?

We then melt the finished tiles. He behaves differently, it seems to me

Julia, I didn't think about that. Maybe here I don't know

And where to read about it?

Lyudmila, there is a lot of information, type - Tempering chocolate, and on HP the girls wrote about it

I dealt with oranges today. Boiled a part whole, then cut it into rather thin slices (they were not soft at all, cut normally), cut a part without boiling and peeled off several of these slices. I put everything in the dryer for 2 hours - I decided that it was necessary to continue drying. After another 2 hours I took a sample, and my impressions are the following: boiled oranges - the crust is practically not bitter, but quite hard. Raw - the crust is softer, but bitter. Well, without the skin - everyone understands the taste. In principle, all are suitable for chocolate coating.
I would like to emphasize that all these experiments are WITHOUT BOILING IN SUGAR SYRUP.

Here, girls, how I did it - thanks to Natasha for the recipe! I did everything according to the recipe - I cut the slices on a grater, boiled for 5 minutes, then in syrup for 2 hours in Shtebe, then in the oven for almost an hour. I bought boxes of 50 rubles in fixprice. - put in boxes on parchment - I will give!




There are all sorts of boxes there - there are still some:

MouseYulka, here, on the rug I arranged orange slices. I sent it to the refrigerator. If everything works out, then I'll draw up a dietary version of this recipe.

Anna,

MouseYulka, here, on the rug I arranged orange slices. I sent it to the refrigerator. If everything works out, then I'll draw up a dietary version of this recipe.

Fine. I muddied the tangerines yesterday. Bony reptiles were caught, but very tasty and the skin is thin. So I think that it will be nice without chocolate

[MouseYulka]

MouseYulka, I said "thank you" for the rug in my recipe))

[Anna1957]

Anna1957Thank you is always nice, although I don't see my merit

made these oranges today. The main tips for the future for those who plan to do: take the middle oranges, when you dry in the oven, you must put a tray under the wire rack with oranges, I did not put it, and I dripped syrup from the orange to the bottom of the oven and burned. Babaevsky Elite took chocolate. For some reason, it remained thick for me after melting, so I dipped it, smeared it with a little teaspoon, and removed the excess. I dried it both on parchment and on a silicone mat, for speed I put it under the turned on hood, they removed easily both there and there. Liked. But of course you have to tinker with this treat)

I made another portion of candied fruits - oranges and red grapefruits (I liked it more). Cooked for 25 minutes, stood for 5 hours - so 4 times. The result is soft, transparent, all intact. Part - left in syrup, part - dipped in chocolate and sprinkled with cocoa nibs, and part - did not cover with anything. Delicious everything. I'll try to make tangerines this way.

This year I also made these oranges for gifts and for myself. Nobody remained indifferent.

Also go to buy oranges or something, everyone has such beauty!

Now I also have such beauty, and what a deliciousness. And it's so easy to prepare. Natalia, thanks for the recipe!

I read and read the topic and still could not stand it - I made these sweets.
We often sell small oranges under the pseudonym "juice oranges". Here they fit perfectly.
I boiled two kilograms of oranges and two lemons whole in water with the addition of soda. It was a pity for me to cut them and release delicious juice. After cooling, I cut it. The oranges were good, dense, but the lemons inside were boiled into porridge. But I put them in the syrup anyway for acid and flavor.
Then I did everything according to the recipe. She melted the chocolate (dark Lind) in the microwave, it was not thick at all and then froze for a long time.
Here's what plate I got:

And this - "marriage" - also delicious

Even though I'm not a sweet tooth, I appreciated the candy. The taste is very refined. It's also good without chocolate, but somehow easier.
Thanks for the recipe!

boiled whole in water with the addition of soda

How much time and how much soda, Svetlana?

[Anna]

Anna, poured oranges with boiling water, cooked for 10 minutes from the moment of boiling. Soda put in just over half a teaspoon. There was probably a liter and a half of water. Well, how much is needed to pour 2 kg of oranges. The crust was practically not bitter, but retained its characteristic citrus flavor.
As for the whole boil - I picked up your idea. And I read about soda somewhere in the same topic. With the world on a string.

I just cooked recently for much longer than 10 minutes, but I definitely did not notice the time. There is practically no bitterness, one orange is torn, the rest are normal. I haven't tried it with soda. No aftertaste?

In general, there is no soda aftertaste. Yes, there is not much of it, and probably reacts with something, and decomposes when boiled. In general, both the time and the result suited me

I'll have to try on the trail. time.

lemons inside boiled into porridge

Oh, those lemons. But, I must say, they tolerate the execution well. And I added citric acid to the tangerines in the syrup, I also liked it. But in general, for my scus, the most-most are lemons, even without chocolate. And bitter chocolate is better

[natapit]

natapit, Natalia, thank you very much for the delicious sweets. I dried it in the dryer, I liked it better than in the oven, albeit a little longer. In the oven, no matter how I carefully laid out on the grate, the tender middle of the orange circle still fell through, since the distance between the rods at the grate is large. The dryer has very comfortable pallets. On them you carefully lay out the circles, even those that are slightly boiled during cooking, you spread them neatly on the pallet, they dry up, there is practically no marriage. Covered with Babaev's chocolate. Well, how delicious it is !!!! Thank you very much for sharing the recipe.

[elvin]

elvin, Ale, and how long did it take to dry?

[Irishk @]

Irishk @, Irina, I was drying for 7 hours. But along the way, Belevskaya marshmallow lived there. One of the girls wrote that the drying time took 4 hours.

[elvin]

elvinThank you Elichka.

Wow) I bookmark it!

[natapit]

natapit, well, here I made them, very tasty, very. I thought it would be delicious without chocolate, but no, with chocolate it tastes 100 times better. So far without a photo, but I also made a conclusion for myself, you need to take small oranges, then you get neat sweets. And the big ones have a hole in the middle. Thanks for the goodies.

Here is my box as a gift of sweets. Chocolate drowns out the taste of the zest, a very delicate taste turned out! Thanks for the recipe!

[Elvira]

Elvira, Evgeniyawhat a beauty you have! That year I did it while I was on maternity leave, but this year my hands did not reach. But at least I admired it!
Eugene, the box looks very aesthetically pleasing!

[natapit]

natapit. It's so delicious. Thank you so much for the recipe.

[Elena]

Elena, wow, how beautiful! No one doubts that they are very tasty. Lena, where did you dry - in the oven or in the dryer?

[elvin]

elvin, everything is as in the recipe. Oven. Only this moment confused me a little.

And place in an oven heated to 120 "C for 20 minutes so that they dry out. I dried for 15 minutes, then turned over to the other side and dried for another 15 minutes.

15 + 15 = 30 Why is 20 minutes written first?

Maybe 20 minutes, in principle, is enough, but you wanted drier?
I dried for 20 minutes, then they just lay for a couple of days on a wooden board in a very warm boiler room. There were the very things: not raw, and not overdried. Then I showered them, took them out onto the veranda so that the chocolate would freeze well and put them in a jar.

then they just lay for a couple of days on a wooden board

Here they would stay until morning so that someone else could try.
We must try with lemons too. Only lemons have seeds inside.
And if you make an assortment of citrus fruits, can you cook them all in one syrup?

Nobody else goes there except me, so it's a safe place. And most importantly, dry and warm. I hide the bag of meringues there.

[Wiki]

Wiki, so this is from me and must be protected.))))

Yeah ... it's harder

This is my second time this year. It is difficult to restrain yourself and not constantly drag along the lobule. I did it from lemons, I liked it even better. But there is also a minus - all the lobules have holes in the center. And I also need some advice: the first time I took Lindt chocolate, it melted normally. And the second time - Belarusian, also bitter. He was not fluid. Tolsto was smeared. Is this a chocolate problem, or am I screwing up something?

It was not fluid. Tolsto was smeared. Is this a chocolate problem, or am I screwing up something?

Apparently there is not enough cocoa butter in it, so it is not fluid.

[akonsu]

akonsu, I don't remember exactly, but from 75%. I don't even consider less. I just didn't find Lindt - I took what was in the stores. But I'm not an expert in chocolate melting, I rarely do it.

I don't remember exactly, but from 75%

I think you mean the percentage of cocoa liquor in chocolate. 75% cocoa butter is a lot. The finest quality chocolate for use in candy, for example, has about 30% -40% cocoa butter ...

[akonsu]

akonsu, You're right. Most likely, I confused the% chocolate and butter. Thank you

natapit, It's so delicious. Thank you so much for the recipe.

uuuh what a beautiful chocolate you have)) which one did you use? So sleek, shiny

This time I got loose. Although I did not cut very thinly.
I will make new ones. And it didn't cook for very long ..

[
I did it a second time. Delicious, thanks. I washed the oranges, tangerines, lemon, boiled it whole for 5 minutes, cut it, covered it with sugar, lemon, water and cooked it at intervals for about two hours. She took out massive plates on the layer and put them on the heating battery. The next day I turned it over. Then she spread it with a spoon with Babaev's chocolate and put it in the refrigerator.
Next time, I will cut most of it into halves so that the whole pieces are in my mouth.
