I've been busy, but I've taken the time to make some lovely homemade marzipan.

1.5kg (3 pounds) of almonds were heated in almost boiling water for about five minutes then cooled, and since I don't have a machine for it: One and one almond got its skin removed.
Then the almonds were cooled and ground to a fine flour, before sucrose and sorbitol were added as a binding agent.
When the marzipan had the correct consitancy I added a small dash of whiskey for a lovely taste.

All in all I now have 2.5kg (5.5 pounds) of freshly made marzipan.


What have you made from scratch for Christmas?
