Raspberry and vanilla jubes with lime sugar

Raspberry and vanilla jubes, all jelly-like and spiked with lime, make tempting bite-sized treats - a little of what you fancy to cap off a meal.
From: gourmettraveller.com.au SERVES 6-8

500 gm frozen raspberries
800 gm caster sugar
40 gm liquid glucose
Scraped seeds of 1 vanilla bean
12 titanium-strength gelatine leaves
Lime sugar
125 gm white sugar
Finely grated rind of 2 limes

Combine raspberries, 40gm sugar and 650ml water in a saucepan and bring to the simmer over medium-high heat, then set aside to infuse (1 hour).

Strain mixture into a large saucepan (you should have about 850ml) and discard solids. Add glucose, vanilla and remaining sugar and cook over medium heat until mixture reaches 116C on a sugar thermometer (10-12 minutes). Meanwhile, soak gelatine in cold water until softened (3-5 minutes). Squeeze excess water from gelatine, add to raspberry mixture and stir to combine. Pour into a 22cm square cake tin or container that’s been lightly brushed with oil and refrigerate until set (6 hours to overnight).

For lime sugar, combine ingredients in a bowl and set aside.

Gently pull raspberry mixture away from the sides of the container with your fingertips to break the seal, then turn out onto a chopping board lined with baking paper. Cut into bite-sized squares, dust in lime sugar and serve. Jubes will keep stored in an airtight container for 3 days.
