I ended up eating half of the ribbons, but only dipped one end in the syrup. The other end remained covered in fine white powder. I would have thought this would be pretty easy to make, but it wasn't without its challenges! First, the skin is pretty tough--wet your hands before handling. Second, I didn't put the jelly in until the very end, because I didn't think it'd make enough. Third, I'm not a good cook. I accidentally brushed the edge of my sandwich knife, which bent the ribbons but didn't break them. Fourth, I added a bay leaf and stirred it in at the end. Fifth, I'm not a good cook. I overcooked this and gave it a poor rating. Several commenters (including me!) criticized the recipe
