| Preparation |
| Mix the almonds with 2 tablespoons sugar and grind them fine. Or use commercially ground almonds. Add remaining sugar, semolina, and 6 tablespoons orange flower water. Knead this mixture to a soft dough. If too stiff add 1 or 2 tablespoons orange flower water. Break off small pieces, the size of a walnut and shape into pears. At the end of each, insert 1 clove for the stalk. Arrange on a buttered and floured baking sheet and bake for 20 minutes in a slow oven. When the almond pears are cool, dip them quickly into orange flower water and then coat with icing sugar. After a few minutes coat them again in icing sugar. |
