Turkish Delight (Sugar Candy)
"This Turkish Delight recipe is a traditional version of the classic Middle Eastern sweet. The resulting candy is delicately chewy and scented with rosewater. Rosewater can be found at Middle Eastern markets and at some well-stocked supermarkets. There is really no substitute for this distinctive flavor, but if you cannot find it you can use another flavored extract like lemon, mint, or any number of floral flavors...."
