Steps:
- Before you begin this recipe, please take a class from a professional on working with sugar. This is a skill that professional pastry chefs develop after years of experience. Working with sugar will burn your fingers so know before you start that your fingers will develop burn blisters. Place the sugar, vinegar and water in a saucepan over high heat. Insert a candy thermometer and cook until the sugar reaches 320 degrees F. Use a pastry brush to keep the inside of the saucepan clean as the sugar cooks or the sugar may recrystallize. To do this, dip a clean brush in cold water and brush the inside of the pan clean. Pour the cooked sugar onto 3 or 4 silicone baking mats. If you want to color and/or flavor the sugar with food colors and/or flavored oils, this is the time to do so. Add a few drops of color to the sugar. Mix with a wooden skewer. To get started, push the sugar from the sides toward the center. This process takes a little while. Try to keep the sugar divided by color. Use the mat to push the firm sugar around the edges toward the center. Use a folding motion to accomplish that task. The next step is to pick up the sugar with your hands. Place each color under the heat of the sugar lamp. Pull the sugar until it becomes glossy and the color is evenly distributed. You will need to pull the colors simultaneously. Keep them under the sugar lamp but keep an eye on them. The lamp can melt the sugar so it is important keep rotating it and folding it onto itself.
- Start with 2 colors. I used green (mint) and yellow (lemon). Place the sugar pieces side- to-side. Pull and lengthen. Cut in half. Place them side-to-side again. Pull to lengthen. Cut in half and place them side-to-side. Now you have a flat piece of sugar that you are pulling long. Cut off the ends, (they are bulky), when the sugar starts to harden. Make some waves to create the ribbon. Join the 2 edges to make a circular ribbon. Voila! Beautiful for the holidays.

Steps:
- Gather the ingredients.
- Prepare four cookie sheets by spraying them with nonstick cooking spray or covering them with a light layer of oil.
- Preheat oven to 200 F. Combine sugar, corn syrup, and water in a large saucepan. Bring to a boil over medium heat, stirring continuously, until sugar dissolves.
- Insert a candy thermometer and continue cooking without stirring until candy reaches 285 F (soft-crack stage).
- Once the proper temperature is reached, remove candy from heat immediately and stir in peppermint extract.
- Pour 1/3 of the mixture onto a prepared cookie sheet and place it in the heated oven to stay warm.
- Pour another 1/3 onto a second sheet and sprinkle green food coloring on top. Place this sheet in the oven as well.
- Add red food coloring to remaining 1/3 of candy.
- Pour candy out onto a marble slab or heat-safe cutting board. Allow it to sit briefly until it forms a "skin."
- Spray a bench scraper or heat-safe spatula with nonstick cooking spray, and use the tool to begin spreading candy out and pushing it back together, working it across the board and allowing it to cool. Don't forget to check out the instructions showing how to pull candy if you get confused about the process.
- As soon as the candy is cool enough to handle, but still quite hot, begin to pull it. If you have plastic gloves, put them on and spray the gloves with nonstick cooking spray-this will help prevent overheated or burned hands. Take candy in both hands and pull hands in opposite directions, stretching candy into a long rope.
- Bring ends of strands together and twist candy into a rope.
- Then pull rope out into a long strand.
- Continue to twist and pull candy until it has a satin-like finish and is an opaque red color.
- Once candy is still pliable, but barely warm, pull it into a strand about 2 inches thick, and place it on remaining prepared baking sheet. Put this sheet back into oven, and remove baking sheet with uncolored candy syrup. The pulled candy will remain pliable in the warm oven while you work the second portion.
- Repeat pulling procedure with the second, uncolored portion of candy. In the end, candy should be a pearly white color.
- Form into a log 2 inches in diameter, just like red candy.
- Repeat pulling procedure with last, green portion of candy. In the end, candy should be an opaque and satiny green color.
- Form into a log 2 inches in diameter.
- Remove candies from oven. Cut a 5-inch segment from each of the green, white, and red logs, and place them next to each other on fourth greased cookie sheet, with the white in the middle.
- Begin to pull candies together, gently molding them together as candy gets thinner. Try to end up with a very thin piece of tri-colored candy 1-inch in height.
- Once twisted candy is the shape you want, use oiled kitchen shears to cut them to into approximately 6- to 8-inch lengths.
- Immediately push them into a ribbon shape and place them on a baking sheet to set at room temperature.
- Repeat pulling and cutting with remaining candy.
- If candy gets too hard to pull, place in the warm oven for a few minutes to soften, but don't let it sit too long and melt.
- The ribbons will get very hard at room temperature, but if left out for long periods of time they will get soft and sticky, so be sure to wrap them in cellophane once set.

CANDIED COCONUT RIBBONS
Steps:
- Position a rack in the middle of the oven and preheat to 400°F. Locate the 3 black spots, or "eyes," at the top of coconut. Using a Phillips screwdriver or a hammer and large nail, pierce holes in 2 of the eyes and pour out the liquid, capturing it and reserving it to drink or discarding it. (Make sure the holes are good sized, or the water will dribble out slowly.) Put the coconut on a baking sheet and bake for 15 minutes. The heat will loosen the meat from the shell. The coconut may crack in the oven, which is fine.
- Remove the coconut from the oven. Holding it with a dish towel, firmly tap it around the equator with a hammer until it has cracked around the entire circumference and broken apart. Try to keep the pieces as large as possible. Use a dinner knife to pry the coconut meat from the shell. Discard the shell.
- Using a vegetable peeler, shave off the papery brown skin from the white coconut meat. Rinse the meat to remove any excess bits of brown skin. Then, using a sharp knife, cut the meat into ribbons about 2 inches long and 1/16 to 1/8 inch wide. Some ribbons will be very short because the pieces of coconut meat are not all the same size.
- Fill a 5-quart Dutch oven or other large pot half full with water and bring to a rolling boil. Add the coconut ribbons and parboil for 1 minute to remove some of the oil. Drain in a colander and rinse under lots of cold running water.
- Wash the pot and add the sugar and water to it. Place over medium-high heat and heat, stirring, until the sugar melts, forming a thick syrup. Add the ribbons and lower the heat to a simmer. Cook, stirring frequently with a metal spoon to expose the ribbons evenly to the syrup. They will gradually become silvery and soften. After about 30 minutes, when the sugar syrup is as thick as corn syrup, lower the heat further to slow the cooking and start stirring constantly with the spoon. The ribbons will soon turn white, become dry looking, and stiffen. To dry the ribbons thoroughly without browning them, keep stirring. The sugar will first cling to the ribbons and then flake off in white, sandy bits. When the ribbons are opaque and covered by a dry, sandy sugar film, they are done. This second cooking stage, which began when you lowered the heat, should take about 2 minutes.
- Pour the ribbons onto a baking sheet and spread them into a single layer to cool completely. Transfer the cooled ribbons to an airtight container, discarding the powdery sugar. They will keep at room temperature for about 2 weeks.
- Coffee and Condensed Milk
- An opened can of sweetened condensed milk is a great excuse to indulge in Vietnamese coffee, called ca-phe sua. To create this jolting beverage, brew an inky-strong cup of coffee. Any full-bodied, dark roast will work, although a perennial favorite of Vietnamese Americans is Cafe Du Monde from New Orleans, which contains chicory. Regardless of the coffee, brew it in a regular electric coffeemaker or a stove-top espresso maker. (The small Vietnamese stainless-steel presses are slow and often don't work well.) If you are starting from beans, grind them extra-fine to extract the maximum flavor.
- Now, put about 1 tablespoon sweetened condensed milk in a cup. Add about 3/4 cup of your hot, heady brew and stir to combine. Taste and adjust with more milk to your liking, then drink as is or pour into an ice-filled glass for a cold version.

CANDIED CARROT CURLS
These edible ribbons of candied carrots add a touch of whimsy to this stunning carrot layer cake. The secret to the 'spring' in their step is an everyday kitchen utensil: a wooden spoon! While the carrot strips are still warm from being candied in the oven, wrap them around the spoon handle to create perky spiralized toppers for cakes and cupcakes.

Steps:
- Peel carrots into thin strips. In a saucepan, bring sugar and 3/4 cup water to a boil, stirring until sugar dissolves. Stir in carrots; reduce heat to medium-low and simmer until very soft, about 20 minutes. Let cool in syrup 10 minutes. Drain.
- Preheat oven to 225°F. Arrange strips in a single layer on a wire rack set inside a rimmed baking sheet. Bake until tacky but no longer wet, 30 to 40 minutes.
- Working quickly, spiral carrots around the handle of a wooden spoon (or your finger), and sprinkle with sugar to coat. (If strips harden before you curl them, bake for a few minutes to re-soften.) Let stand on a wire rack until crisp and dry, about 1 hour.
