Pulled sugar is a French
pastry technique used for advanced plating in Western cuisine. In this recipe, fine sugar, a little honey, and water are cooked to 140℃, then cooled to 60~70℃ to thicken the syrup before using tools to pull it into threads. The more fine sugar used, the crisper the result will be. Advanced sugar thread techniques require heating fine sugar with a small amount of maltose and water to 140°C, then cooling it to 60~70°C to make the syrup thick. A larger quantity of fine sugar is needed for crisp threads when pulled.
