Simple Syrup- Tangerine

I were not sure so simple syrup was, well… simple.

At a recent March morning, as my two boys sat on the breakfast bar watching me prepare IBM System x Certification  French Toast, my oldest announced, “Mom, we’ve got to make our very own syrup.

Healthy syrup like apple syrup.” This got my wheels turning well, i discontinued hunting for simple syrup recipes.

It didn’t take very long to get you a not hard recipe for blueberry syrup, and since I think about our outdoor area.

I’ve got a mature fruit tree that I thought was a loquat tree.

I went outside to check out the fruit, and learned that these folks were tiny tangerines.

I could not wait to learn the recipe!

Ingredients

1 Cup Of Tangerines

1 Cup Of Sugar

Equipment: For the record, we moved into this house, so some ‘improvisation’ was necessary. IBM Certified Sales Expert Certification  The coffee cup replaces a food processor, potato masher or blender, and also the creamer jar replaces the Ball jars employed for canning.* My lack of canning supplies can also be the explanation I only made 1 cup of syrup.

First, your kids picked the tangerines from the comfort of our tree, and peeled them.We ended up with a total of four years old cups of tangerines, but we just used 1 cup to create our syrup.

What’s left got ‘munched.’

Now, I produced a few ‘mistakes’, (I didn’t quite look into the directions to the blueberry syrup recipe through,) we began to ‘mush’ the tangerines down in a strainer when using the bottom associated with a coffee cup (my blender, potato masher and mixer just weren’t yet unpacked), and into a bowl. I didn’t mind to the, thus begun try juicing them in your hand… I did not particularly enjoy that either, sothen I went back and look the directions around the blueberry recipe.

This is when I put the latest cup of tangerines within the 5qt pot, and ‘mooshed’ them again using the coffee cup.

I then brought the fruit to the rapid boil

Next I strained the remnants towards a bowl and included the sugar-(another mistake:

I have been meant to restore it who are holding cards, and stir the sugar in, bringing it with a rapid boil again.)

Finally… I poured the contents on the creamer jar…

We all tried a little taste on our fingers and it was good.

I poured a small amount to a Ramakan (sp?) and dipped a Saltine cracker in it… also good.

Then I made some French Toast and set it on that… it had been a bit tart.

Next time, I intend to make use of a IBM Certified BPM Developer Certification  Agave sugar, and possibly a little bit brown sugar, and add cinnamon, nutmeg, and/or a little bit freshly squeezed lemon juice, and perhaps persimmons, to minimize on the tartness.
