How to make nougat

1. To make nougat, you need to prepare 200 grams of marshmallows, 50 grams of butter, 150 grams of milk powder, and 150 grams of peanuts. The prepared peanuts should be processed in advance, put them in the oven to bake, then cool them down, remove the red skin on the surface, and chop them into larger particles.

2. Put the prepared butter in a container and melt it over water. Put the melted butter into a non-stick pan and continue heating it. After the temperature rises, add the prepared marshmallows and continue heating. After the marshmallows are completely melted, mix them with the butter and then add the milk powder.

3. After the milk powder in the pot melts, add the prepared peanut pieces and mix well. Quickly take out and pour into a non-stick mold to let it cool down. Then put it in the refrigerator for two hours. Take it out and cut it into blocks to make your delicious homemade nougat.

Tips for making nougat

1. When making nougat, do not buy those processed peanuts with seasonings on the market. You must choose original peanut kernels and bake them directly in the oven. Only in this way will the nougat have a rich peanut aroma.

2. When making nougat, the temperature of the syrup directly determines the quality of the nougat. If the temperature is not reached, the nougat will be too soft and sticky. However, if the syrup is boiled too much, the nougat will be too hard and have a burnt smell. Therefore, when boiling the syrup, you must use a low heat and observe carefully. Turn off the heat immediately after boiling.
