Turon From Spain Food

TURON, FROM SPAIN

Turon, from Spain image

Traditional at the Christmas meal in Spain. The ingredients (in Spanish!) only ask for "I packet marzipan". UPDATE: I've included the marzipan recipe, the weights of which total 4 oz plus whatever an egg yolk weights in case you want to use pre-made marzipan. P.S. this recipe makes the hard Turon.

Time 20m

Yield 24 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 8

Ingredients

450 g blanched almonds, toasted (1 lb, 4 cups)
225 g sugar (8 oz, 1 cup)
125 ml clear honey (1/2 cup)
50 g ground almonds (2 oz, 1/2 cup)
40 g icing, sugar (confectioners, 1 1/2 oz, 1/3 cup)
15 g tbsps sugar (1/2 oz, 1 1/2 Tbsp)
1 egg yolk
1 dash almond essence (extract)

Steps:

To make the marzipan, sift the almonds, icing (confectioners') sugar and sugar into a bowl. Mix lightly together. Gradually beat in the egg yolk and almond essence (extract), using a knife or a spatula to stir them inches Lightly dust a working surface with icing (confectioners') sugar. Turn the marzipan mixture out on to the working surface and knead it, pressing down and away from you with the heel of your hand, for 5 minutes or until the mixture is very smooth. Set the marzipan aside.
Combine the almonds, sugar and honey in a large saucepan and set the pan over very low heat. Cook the mixture until the sugar has dissolved, stirring constantly. Increase the heat to moderate and bring to the boil. Cook for 3 minutes, stirring constantly. Remove the pan from the heat and stir in the marzipan. Beat the mixture until the ingredients are thoroughly combined.
Spoon the mixture into a well-greased 15 cm (6 in) by 23 cm (9 in) baking pan, and set aside to cool slightly. Mark the mixture into 4 cm (1 1/2 in) squares and leave aside to cool completely.
Remove the sweets (candies) from the pan and break them into squares. Either place the sweets (candies) on a serving plate, or wrap them in greaseproof or waxed paper and store until required.

SPANISH TURRON RECIPE

Spanish Turron Recipe image

Nothing says Christmas like having a plate full of turrón on the table, ready for everyone to grab a piece (or many more to be honest). You might be wondering what is nougat, and let me tell you that it is more simple than what you think. This Spanish Turron is similar to what is known as nougat candy in other countries.

Categories Desserts Recipes

Time 30m

Number Of Ingredients 4

Ingredients

1 3/4 cups (250g) raw almond (you can add more)
1/2 cup (150g) honey
3/4 cups (150g) sugar
1 egg white.

Steps:

Toast the almonds in the oven or in a pan at the stove, moving them whenever you can so that they brown evenly, and remove them before they turn dark.
Put the sugar with the honey in a heavy-bottomed saucepan. Heat over low heat and mix the sugar with the honey.
Meanwhile, beat the egg white with a stand or hand mixer, until you get soft peaks.
When the sugar and honey mixture begins to bubble, cook for two more minutes and remove from heat. Incorporate the whipped egg white slowly and move lightly so that it doesn't set. Return the pot to the heat of the stove and continue cooking while constantly stirring. Never take it to high heat, always medium to low.
Don't stop stirring with a wooden spoon until the mixture has the texture of caramel, which is known as the hard ballpoint, or until the caramel breaks. Then add the almonds and mix well.
Let it cool for a few minutes and pour the nougat mix into a square or rectangular cake pan lined with parchment paper. Smooth the surface and let it cool completely before eating it.

Toast the almonds in the oven until they reach a light golden brown. Remove them from the oven.
As you allow the almonds to cool, grind the sugar into a powdered sugar consistency in a blender or coffee grinder. (Or use store bought powdered sugar.) I like to grind my own because I can use the type of sugar that I prefer. (unrefined, organic)
Grind the cooled almonds in a food processor. If you have a high powered food processor, this process should be relatively simple and shouldn't take too long. If your food processor isn't as potent, this recipe may be a lot of work for it and could end up breaking it. I'm not telling you this to scare you from proceeding, but do want to warn you. If you are making nut butters already with your food processor without issues, you should be fine!
As the almonds turn into more of an almond butter, add in the powdered sugar and honey. Continue to process the mixture until you reach a pretty thin paste consistency. You want the almonds to release their oils! (Yes, this totally contradicts most of the recipes out there, but is more inline with what I saw the turrón factories doing.)

TOP 10 FOODS TO TRY IN SPAIN - BBC GOOD FOOD

From bbcgoodfood.com

Gazpacho. The reddest, ripest tomatoes, olive oil, garlic, bread, peppers and cucumber are blended until silky smooth, then chilled and poured into bowls or glasses.
Paella. In the Valencia region, they claim you can eat a different rice dish every day of the year, but let’s stick with the most traditional version for now.
Tortilla Española. Eggs, potatoes, onions… that’s it – and some purists even consider that adding onion is a gastronomic crime of the highest order. The Spanish omelette is so much more than the sum of its parts.
Gambas al ajillo. You walk into a tapas bar, the barman is handing a customer an earthenware dish of sizzling prawns, the tantalising aroma hits your nostrils and you just have to order some too.
Tostas de tomate y jamón. Black pigs roam among the holm oak trees in western Spain in search of the acorns that give marbled magenta Ibérico ham its distinctive nutty flavour.
Patatas bravas. Perhaps the most ubiquitous of tapas, patatas bravas vary quite a bit around the country, but all versions involve chunks of fried potato.
Pollo al ajillo. Any Spaniard will tell you that the best garlic chicken ever is the one their grandmother makes. And of course they are right. Unpeeled cloves of garlic are fried in olive oil to flavour it, then taken out before adding pieces of chicken.
Cochinillo asado. People might claim they are going to Segovia to see its astounding Roman aqueduct, fairytale castle or elegant cathedral, but really all that is just to build up an appetite for lunch.
Pisto. The Spanish version of ratatouille turns up all over the country in different guises, but is most typical in the towns and villages across the plains of La Mancha, south of Madrid.
Turrón. Spaniards devour massive amounts of turrón, or almond nougat, at Christmas, although it's available all year round. Most of it is made in the small town of Jijona in the province of Alicante, using locally-grown almonds mixed with honey and egg white.
