The candies almost melted in your mouth and the pork offered up a slightly salty mild crunch in contrast to it. Unlike regular sweet and sours where you might get a burst of sweetness upon hitting a piece of pineapple, when you get a burst of sweetness from the gummies it also had a cherry flavor, lime, orange, or lemon flavor that would accompany it as well. To compare it to normal sweet and sour wouldn't truly do it justice. The sauce came out slightly more on the sour side than the sweet side but, when you hit one of the gummies it was this burst of soft sweetness in your mouth. Then it was time to get out some white rice and plate it up! I scooped up the mixture into a bowl and brought it into the house. I went with about 1/2 cup worth.Ī couple of stirs around to make sure everything was nicely coated and then I took my wok off the coals and sat it in the handy resting spot for it that I had nearby. The sweet and sour-patch sauce was added. Another box of gummies was dumped in with the meat and veggies. Then it was time for the star to make an appearance again. The cooking was fast and furious, this wok is a beast! Once the oil started to smoke a little, I tossed in the meat and the veggies, normally I would just put the meat in first but, given that it had already been cooked, it all went in at once.

Sweet and Sour-Patch Sauce:ġ/2 tsp Pepper seeds (I used jalapeno but, might switch this out for curry or something hotter.)įirst the water and gummies are tossed into a pot to slowly cook on low heat, the idea is to melt down the gummies. I planned on using some in the sauce along with throwing some in with the stir fry portion as well. Now it was time for the star of the cook! Once they were cooked all the way through, I pulled them off and set them aside for later. They were rubbed up and thrown on the grill to cook indirectly along with some chicken I was cooking for lunch. To me it seemed like it would hold up the best and the saltiness it might contribute would be a nice touch. Pork seemed like the natural choice due to having to deal with some potentially big flavors. Then it dawned on me, if they are already sweet and sour, then why not make a sweet and sour stir fry with them! So that is what I did. Gummy! When thinking about all the different types and forms of gummy candies there are, I can't help but think about those delicious little creations known as Sour Patch Kids. I tried an experiment involving chocolate that did not pan out so well so, I figured I would go in an entirely different direction. What the heck to make that involves using candy?
