Ingredients for Sugared Grapes
- Green Grape
- Egg Whites
- ½ cup granulated sugar
How to Make Sugared Grapes
- Wash and thoroughly dry 1 pound of red or green seedless grapes. Pat them completely dry with a paper towel for optimal sugar adhesion.
- In a medium bowl, whisk together ½ cup granulated sugar, 2 tablespoons water, and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract until the sugar is dissolved.
- Add the dried grapes to the sugar mixture, gently tossing to coat each grape evenly.
- Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Arrange the sugared grapes in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet.
- Refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to allow the sugar to set and the grapes to chill. This helps create a beautiful crunchy candy coating.
- Once chilled, gently toss the grapes to remove any excess sugar crystals.
- Serve immediately or store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
Chef's Tip for Extra Flavor
Want to unlock deeper, more complex flavors? Try toasting your whole spices before grinding them, or blooming ground spices in a little warm oil to enhance their aroma. Deglazing your pan with a bit of stock, wine, or even water after browning ingredients can capture those tasty caramelized bits, adding richness to your dish.
