    A fete is similar to a flea market, lots of stalls selling all sorts of things. They are frequently held by schools and churches ;)

    Growing up in Melbourne meant having these at every school event and kids party! It was always these, fairy bread and those chocolate rice bubbles cups too!
    Cheers for the trip down memory lane!

      Agree! I’m from Melbourne and these were a staple at school fetes. Ahh...memories! Such an Aussie thing.

    Yes, you can add colouring. Add it once the sugar is dissolved but before it starts boiling. You can test the toffee to see if it is cooked by having a bowl of cold water nearby. Spoon a small amount of toffee into the water to test the consistency, if it hardens then its ready ;)

  • @OnePotChefShow
    @OnePotChefShow  11 ปีที่แล้ว +5

    Usually they become grainy if you don't brush away the crystals while cooking the toffee syrup, or if you stir it once it starts boiling. Hope this helps ;)

  • @OnePotChefShow
    @OnePotChefShow  11 ปีที่แล้ว +7

    Yes, you can add flavoring to the sugar and water (before it boils) - Orange Essence, Vanilla Essence, Peppermint Essence etc would all be good ;)

    Yep...stickjaws in Sydney. I left Sydney in 1967 and have lived in 4 countries since. I still remembered the recipe well enough to make it for a couple of my kids in Ireland in 1973. But later, in Canada, it was gone from my head. I have never seen this toffee anywhere else in the world (I've been to about 22 countries) so I knew immediately that the chef on this video would be an Aussie. Sure enough! Thanks so much for the reminder. I will be making this toffee for my friends here in Spain.

    This looks similar to a hard candy that's made in the states around Christmas time but with cinnamon oil added. Now that brings back memories. Thanks for another great bit of food to try.

  • @OnePotChefShow
    @OnePotChefShow  11 ปีที่แล้ว +4

    Simply dip the base of the toffee (with the paper on) into some water. The paper will get wet and peel straight off ;)

  • @shinycat01
    @shinycat01 3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    they were the first things I would buy! back in the early '70's, they were softish...you could take a bite and have long strings of toffee. I used to look for the red ones

  • @1toshi32
    @1toshi32 ปีที่แล้ว

    I remember making these as well when I was very young. When you don't let them set all the way, they become very chewy. We used to call them stick jaws when they got to that stage.

    We used to make Apple fritters as well. I distinctly remember doing this in prep - stirring the sugar and then 100-1000 the toffees. They'd never let kids do this now, it would be a liability nightmare! Kids are not allowed to burn themselves any more (or learn that burning hurts but cooking is good!)

    You forgot the bit where the paper wrapper sticks to the toffee and you can't get it off and you just end up eating the wrapper and all. Or was that just me? :/

    • @TheNightFlower
      @TheNightFlower 6 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Lishy It also gives the toffee a different flavour as brown sugar has molasses in it. The toffee gets a sort of slightly smoky, golden syrupy flavour and colour. Use unrefined raw sugar if you don’t like the burnt molasses flavour.

  • @ohpineapples
