Hi everyone, it's Monique.
嗨,大家好。我是莫妮卡。
So there's a big holiday coming up this month,
这个月有个大节日,
and I'm not talking about the one that has to do with hearts.
我说的不是那个和爱情有关的节日。
I'm talking about the one that's all about the football.
我说的是那个和橄榄球有关的节日。
Well, it doesn't really look like a football.
好吧,这看起来并不像橄榄球。
So if you're hosting a party, or if you're going to a party,
所以如果你在办派对,或者你要去参加派对,
or if you're just gonna watch the big game from your couch,
或者你只是想在沙发上看一场大型比赛,
well, then I have the perfect snack for you.
那么,我有个完美的小吃推荐给你。
We are going to be making these candy-dipped apple footballs.
我们将制作这些蘸糖果的苹果橄榄球。
They're so perfect for the occasion, really yummy, and super quick and easy to make,
这种小吃非常适合看橄榄球时食用,十分美味,而且超级快速且容易制作,
and I'm gonna show you how right now.
我现在就给你们演示一下。
We're gonna start by melting some light cocoa candy melts,
开始先融化一些轻的可可豆糖果,
and while they're melting, we're going to start prepping our apples.
糖果融化时,我们就开始准备苹果。
I'm gonna use an apple slicer because it's easy.
我用到了苹果切片机,因为这样很简单。
And once you slice them, go ahead and pop them into a lemon-lime soda bath.
苹果切成条以后,把它们浸泡在柠檬汽水中。
Helpful hint: the citric acid in lemon-lime soda helps to keep our apples fresh and preventthem from browning.
小贴士:柠檬汽水中的柠檬酸有助于保持苹果新鲜,防止苹果变色。
So we can slice a bunch of apples and we don't have to worry about them turning brown,
这样我们就可以切一堆苹果,不必担心它们变成棕色,
although they will be brown, we just won't have to worry about the insides turning brown.
虽然最后是会变成棕色的,但是我们不需要担心苹果里面会变色的问题。
Let's just make sure to let these soak for about 10 to 15 minutes.
确保浸泡苹果条大约10至15分钟。
Once your apples have soaked, go ahead and place them on a paper towel to dry,
苹果浸泡完后,取出苹果条放在纸巾上晾干,
and we want to make sure that they dry completely before we start dunking them.
我们需要确保苹果条在开始蘸糖之前完全干燥。
So, now that our candy melts are nice and melted, we're gonna go ahead and dip our apples.
现在,糖果已经融化而且看起来不错,可以开始用苹果蘸糖了。
So I'm just gonna use this candy dipping tool.
可以用这个蘸糖工具。
It's a spear, but you can use anything that you have at home that's easy for you to use,
这是一个长叉,不过你可以使用任何家里使用方便的东西,
some tongs maybe, or a fork, whatever's easy for you.
可以是夹钳、叉子,随便什么都行。
And go ahead and coat the entire apple and then tap off the excess candy melts so it's nice and smooth.
把整个苹果条都蘸满糖,敲掉多余的糖果,使其整洁又光滑。
And then we're going to place them on a parchment covered cookie sheet.
然后我们要把它们放在羊皮纸覆盖的烤盘上。
So I'm always in charge of bringing the sweets to the party when we're watching the big game,
当我们看大型比赛时,我总是负责把甜食带到派对上,
and this year, since one of my New Year's resolutions is to eat healthy,
今年,我的新年计划是饮食健康,
I'm thinking that apples dipped in candy melts still make a great treat.
我认为蘸糖果的苹果可以用来款待客人。
So I'm really excited to bring these this year.
所以今年我很兴奋可以带来这些小吃。
So once our apples are dipped, we're gonna go ahead and pop them in the fridge for about 10 minutes to chill.
把蘸糖后的苹果条放入冰箱中,冷却10分钟。
Now that our apples are chilled, we're going to pipe on the laces with some white candy melts.
现在苹果已经冷却了,然后用一些融化的白色糖果在上面做一些装饰。
Now you can pipe them directly from the piping bag if you just snip off a little piece,
你可以直接从裱花袋中挤出,只要你可以一点点的挤,
but I'm using a tip number 3 just for better control of the lines.
但是我用了3号花嘴为的是更好的挤出线条。
And there you have it.
好了,制作完成。
These candy-dipped apple footballs are going to make a super treat for game day.
这些蘸糖果的苹果橄榄球为比赛日带来了一场超级美食盛宴。
