I tried to make Konpeitō, candy from 460 years ago
#FXPartner Inspired by the new series, FX's Shōgun, I made Japanese candy called Konpeitō (こんぺい糖)! FX’s Shōgun premieres Feb. 27 on Hulu, New Episode every Tuesday! @FXNetworks
I was inspired by FX's Shōgun series to make Konpeitō, the candy that is believed to have been brought by Portuguese missionaries around the Sengoku era, about 460 years ago, the same time period in which Shōgun takes place. If you want to try making it yourself, here's the recipe.
Konpeitō
Ingredients :
20-30 Sugar crystals
150g sugar
100ml water
Food dye
Equipment
Non-stick pan
Matcha whisk
1. Make syrup. In a small pot, add water and sugar. Simmer over medium heat until the sugar has completely melted. Set aside
2. In a non-stick pan, add sugar crystals to the sides of the pan. Heat the pan over medium heat, then add 2 tablespoons of the syrup to the middle of the pan. Once the liquid comes to a simmer, coat the sugar crystals with it using a matcha whisk. Stir constantly until the syrup crystallizes.
3. Repeat this process until the candy reaches the size of a pea.
4. Add food dye to the remaining syrup and coat the candy evenly for coloring
Hope you enjoy this episode!

    You sure are a nice mom! My would have beat my ass if I spit out freshly baked goods she just helped me make. I’m aware that is pretty extreme but I think most parents probably would have done a bit more scolding for that. You’re a super nice mom!

    down the line, this cookbook is amazing, I've made a few of the recipes, and I'm opening up my family to other culture's foods, without ordering fast food or anything, since we don't have too many local small businesses around anymore

    Making candy IS hard. It’s the hardest thing to cook for me, it’s hot and it’s so sensitive to so many different things.

    The real question is not who looked at a sea urchin and asked is that going to taste good?The real question is who looked at an oyster and said that looks like food,were they drunk? Was it a dare?

    haha! this was a really cute and informative video. I always felt konpeito is a simple and boring candy. I have a lot more respect now that I know how they are made. It's probably something you'll do once for fun... then not do again :p

  • @taylorhillard4868
    @taylorhillard4868 Місяць тому

    I feel like you might have been able to do it a bit faster if you had a separate pot of simple sugar already up to temp, and ladle it onto the cores directly from the heated pot. Youd need a candy thermometer to keep it the right temperature but it would get rid of the time spent heating up each ladle of syrup every time.

    I think the, “why did the first person eat X thing,” the answer is probably that they were just desperate and very hungry.

    The shape of the store bought Konpeito reminds me of the rock sugar candy on a stick (I've most often seen in gift shops and specialty candy stores). The process of making them is quite different though!

    I'm not sure about traditionally but in modern candy, Flavouring is Usualy added off the heat as it's an essential oil and has a low boiling/evaporation point. But they looked great! Definitely something for the kid's to enjoy! Maybe try adding a touch of peppermint oil and citric acid! 🎉 🎆

    @luminariel3765 2 місяці тому

    For hard candies, you need candy oils, otherwise you have to flavor all the syrup. I feel like if you had given yourself more time, they would have been perfect! If you started with colored syrup, i get you would get a very rich, bright color
