- Title: Aplets and Cotlets
-
- Makes about 64 small cubes
-
- 3 Tbsp gelatin
- 3 cups apple juice or unsweetened apricot juice
- 1 1/3 cups granulated sugar
- 2 Tbsp each lemon and lime juice, or more as needed
- 2/3 cup cornstarch
- 2 cups walnuts, chopped
- 1 cup powdered sugar
-
- Soften the gelatin in 1/2 cup of the apple juice. Boil remaining
- juice with the sugar for 15 minutes to concentrate it. Mix the
- lemon and lime juice, and add all but 1/4 cup cornstarch to
- dissolve it in the mixture. Add both gelatin mixture and
- cornstarch mixture to the boiled juice and boil again rapidly for
- 10 minutes until very thick, stirring constantly. Taste for
- sweet and sour and add more lemon juice if wanted.
-
- Mix in the walnuts and pour mixture into a 9-by-9-by-2-inch
- baking pan that has been dipped in cold water. Let paste harden
- 12 hours or overnight, then cut with a sharp knife into squares.
- Mix together the reserved 1/4 cup cornstarch and powdered sugar.
- Remove squares with a spatula and roll each in the powdered sugar
- mixture (the cornstarch helps keep the sugar dry).
