How to make amber walnut kernels
Ingredients: 120 grams raw walnut kernels, 15 grams cotton white sugar, 2 tablespoons honey, 5 grams butter, 15 grams toasted white sesame seeds.
1. Boil the raw walnut kernels in a pot of boiling water for about 1 minute to remove the raw bitter taste and also remove dirt;
2. Rinse the removed walnut kernels briefly in prepared cold water, which can make the walnut kernels crisper;
3. Drain the removed walnut kernels a little;
4. Use a flat plate and spread the walnut kernels out in a single layer, do not stack them; if the amount is large, they can be placed directly on the glass turntable of the microwave, but not in the middle, where they burn easily;
5. Microwave on medium-high heat for 4 minutes, opening the door in between to turn them over, or heat for 2 minutes at a time, observing the doneness of the walnuts; the best result is when aroma is released, a slight "pop pop" sound is made, and the surface gradually turns creamy yellow;
6. Make the honey syrup by mixing the cotton white sugar, honey, and butter evenly;
7. Pour the syrup over the walnut kernels and stir a little to make sure each one is evenly coated with syrup;
8. Put them in the microwave again on medium heat for 2 minutes;
9. After taking them out, immediately sprinkle on the toasted white sesame seeds, mix well, and spread out; in a moment they will set to just the right degree, not sticking together in a clump like sugar-coated ones, and the taste is moderately sweet.
