As soon as someone can tolerate , it's a sure sign that this person is descended from the "branch of humanity" that interbred with in times. 😱

Because their entire is completely different. 😉

...or so I believe. 😆 😜

Me: <turns over the box and reads the ingredients>

(╯°□°)╯︵ ┻━┻

Dear Americans, let me make this absolutely clear: anise👏is👏not👏 licorice!👏

#baitandswitch #licorice #notlicorice #UScandy

The ingredients list on the back of the package, listing the following:
Sugar, glucose, butter (sweet cream, natural flavoring, milk), mol- sos, whole wheat flour, sea sal , anise oil, artificial coloring. Contains milk and wheat. Manufac- tured in a facility that also processes peanuts, tree nuts, wheat, eggs, soy, and dairy products.

But no actual licorice!!1!!1

Why do #jellybean candy bags come with #licorice beans? Yuck 😝

I just finished making a tray of salmiakki (salmiak). In retrospect I should have started this project on a much less humid day. The salmiakki has to dry for 24 hours but it will likely take longer than that to slightly harden. Lots of work too, but it will hopefully be worth it.

Red Vines are not licorice. Licorice (Licourice) is black or dark brown. Licorice tastes similar to anise. It is the root of an herb. Red Vines contain no licorice and therefore are not licorice. There is no such thing as red licorice. This is a hill I will die upon.

When grocery shopping in #finland you are required by law to buy at least one (1) item containing #licorice!

This batch is five pellets, 6 tablespoons of sugar, and a big pinch of salt, cooked to 300F, cooled and rolled into a snake, chopped up and dusted with powdered sugar. Important: grind the pellets and sugar together first otherwise the licorice clumps up and gets weird.

Still softer than ideal, so next time I’ll try for 303-305. In theory 309 is caramelization though so there’s..not a lot of wiggle room before things start burning.

Top-down scene from candy making. A shiny irregular log of brown-black is on an oiled silpat. A squarish wodge has been chopped off with a bench scraper. Nearby, a bowl with a little powdered sugar in the bottom, along with a dozen already-coated lozenges, and one yet to be shaken with its brothers. The candy is still soft enough to press in the sharp corners left by cutting before it goes in the bowl. In an ideal world, instead of smooshing off a pointy pillow of candy with steady pressure from the bench scraper, I’d position the bench scraper, then hit it sharply and a piece would break off. Alas. But these work.Finished lozenges, irregular round shapes with a light coating of starch left over from the powdered sugar after shaking off the excess. They’re in a wee 4oz canning jar and destined for my work desk.

An #Australian Darrell Lea (Quadrant Private Equity) bag of Liquorice Allsorts versus a #British Maynards Bassetts (Mondelez International) bag of Liquorice Allsorts (a few of these had already been eaten lol, didn't survive a car trip home.)

The British version certainly has more sorts of allsorts.

But IMO the more limited sorts of the Darrell Lea version are higher quality in and of themselves. They're brighter, perkier, buff, well honed sorts.

Like a lot of British things, the Maynards Bassetts ones look like they've been sat on by Jabba the Hutt. They're kinda flaccid, warped, dull sorts. There is probably a relevant British standard for this special feature of British food, BSI-5318008 or something.

There's probably some whole sorta allsort metaphor to be had here. But I'm too busy having allsorts.

#allsorts #liquorice #licorice #ausveng

two bowls of liquorice allsorts, they're both black bowls, on the left all of them are of the type the made of layers of soft candy and liquorice with two layers of licorice sandwiched between three layers of soft candy, these are in four colours with the outer being orange pink yellow and green candy all with a central white candy. the bowl on the right contains a broader variety of all sorts with a couple that are made up of the same style of layers as the one on the left but with either all white candy or a yellow central candy, there are also some that have two layers of candy sandwiching one layer of liquorice, these are in pink orange or brown, there is also a shaped basic licor stick, electric stick with a central white candy, and some little black licorice figurine, and finally a small lozenge covered in tiny blue hundreds and thousands

the ones in the left bowl look generally fatter and fuller, the ones in the right bowl kind of look like they've been sat on by Jabba the Hutttwo groupings of licorice allsorts, on the left are four that are made up of layers of candy and liquorice with two layers of candy around two layers of liquorice, they are in four colors with the outer candies being yellow, green, pink, and orange all with a central white candy 

on the right is a larger range of slightly more squashed looking allsorts, these consist of a round one covered in tiny blue hundreds and thousands, a tubular one with a white candy center, a flower shaped short tubular plain liquorice, two three candy layer ones with a yellow center in one and all white on the other, three that are two layers of candy around one layer of licorice with one being pink one being brown and one being orange, a strange little licorice figurine with a hat on, a round pink candy with a round licorice centre, and a four-square square ended allsort with two white squares opposite two liquorice squares

Any black licorice fans out there? I’m looking for a candy with:

- no gelatin
- no synthetic food coloring
- no anise
- yes licorice root

I don’t care if it’s soft or hard, I just want the flavor, and a little bonus numbness at the end

Somebody here on Mastodon mentioned black licorice.

I lost the fight today.

All the way from Finland, the people who know black licorice, a beautiful bag of Panda soft, original black licorice. And I quote from the bag

"It's exactly how licorice should be..."

Best before Jan 2027. Hahahahahaha, telling myself in my most serious voice - "Do NOT eat the entire bag today!"
