You're pretty much my opposite, Py.
You like licorice?  :zombiefuck:

I love liquorice. But I am of Sicilian extraction and it is a big part of our cuisine. We love aniseed/liquorice flavours like fennel, sambuca, anisetta etc.

I will let you slide for it because of your mafia heritage.  :razz:

Actually when I was in Spain I did try the Anise and Ouzo drinks early on but lost my taste for the stuff a long time ago.  :laugh:

It's hard to find even here now, you have to go to gift shops to find it, in the spring and summer there is a vendor at the flea market who sells it though which is the last time I had it

It can't be that hard to make, if you're in the right part of the country and it's in season.

It's a matter of volume of sap needed the candy takes 50 gallons or so of sap to make a gallon of syrup then that is further condensed to the candy by heating

I love licorice.  :2thumbsup:
now craving it.

Me too. I want salted liquorice.
Is it a light dusting of salt or granules?

I think El-Presidente is referring to candy with extra ammonium chloride in it.
