Ingredients

Directions

  1. Pound ripe barberries in a mortar and strain the juice through a cloth.

  2. Mix the juice with powdered sugar until thick enough to hold a spoon upright.

  3. Heat the mixture in a drop pan over low heat, stirring constantly without boiling.

  4. Remove from heat for a minute, add more sugar, and warm it again.

  5. Drop the mixture onto a surface and let it dry.
