Here’s a step by step guide on how to make your own dalgona candy:
Traditionally, Korean street vendors make dalgona candy in metal ladles over open flames - but you can easily make this on your stove at home in a much safer manner.
Alternatively, you can switch the ladle out for a skillet or shallow pot.
● Set your metal ladle or skillet over your stove flame at medium heat.
● Pour sugar into your ladle/skillet/pot and stir the contents with a metal chopstick or spoon.
● Stir until the sugar has melted, and is amber in color. Sprinkle in a pinch of baking soda and stir some more.
● Once the baking soda and melted sugar are thoroughly mixed, pour the treat onto a miniature baking pan. If you don’t have a pan, you can use a sheet of parchment paper instead.
● While the dalgona candy mixture is still wet, place a cookie cutter in the center of the candy and gently push it down to create a light imprint and not a whole cutting.
● Remove the cookie cutter and let the candy harden as it cools down.
● Serve the candies with needles, so you and your guests can try to carve out the shapes you created.
