📝 Preparation Steps
1
Place the dried tulip petals and 100 g of the granulated sugar into a large wooden mortar and grind them with a pestle until you achieve a fine, vibrant pink floral sugar powder.
2
In a heavy-bottomed saucepan, combine the remaining 400 g of sugar, water, and lemon juice.
3
Heat the mixture over medium heat, stirring gently until the sugar dissolves.
4
Once dissolved, stop stirring and increase the heat. Boil the syrup until it reaches the "hard-crack" stage, which is precisely 150°C.
5
Immediately stir in the prepared tulip-sugar powder to infuse the syrup with color and floral essence.
6
Prepare your spinning mechanism (as shown in the video, a custom-built centrifuge) and ensure the basin is clean and dry.
7
While the syrup is hot and liquid, carefully pour a steady stream into the center of the spinning head.
8
As the centrifugal force extrudes the sugar through the fine holes, use a long wooden skewer or bamboo stick to catch the threads.
9
Rotate the skewer in a circular motion around the basin to gather the "wool" into a large, fluffy cloud.
10
Serve immediately while the texture is light and crisp.
