Prepare the required materials. I would like to remind you that if you like soft nougat, you can add more 10- 15g butter. The recipe here is just right, neither too soft nor too hard. This is what I tested. If the nougat made according to this formula is soft, it proves that it is milk powder poured before the cotton candy melts. The cotton candy should be fried and the longer it melts, the better. Peanuts need to be cooked, about 170 degrees 10 minutes; Bake and cut into pieces. In a small hot pot (be sure to use a non-stick pot here, or it will stick everywhere), pour in butter, melt it to half of the butter, and then pour in cotton candy. After the marshmallows are poured, keep the fire low and stir the marshmallows all the time, otherwise the marshmallows will burn easily and the nougat will change color. Always stirring marshmallows with a shovel. (If you have a high-temperature resistant silicone scraper at home, you can use it to operate, and the scraper will not stick; If you use a wooden shovel, it will stick, and the wooden shovel I use here will stick. I use a silicone spatula for the next step, which is very convenient and won't stick. It takes about ten minutes to cook marshmallows, which requires patience. Then I poured in milk powder, stirred it evenly and continued to fire. It takes about five minutes to mix well, and then I pour in peanuts and mix well for about two minutes. After that, put a piece of oiled paper in the baking pan, put nougat in it and set it (if there is no baking pan, put it directly in the baking pan, otherwise you need to put a piece of oiled paper on it), and set it aside. Leave it at room temperature for about 2 hours, and you can cut it almost.

Nougat is a kind of candy made of milk, sugar, starch, syrup, protein, peanuts and oil. Generally divided into soft and hard. After mixing the materials, wrap them in edible rice paper.

Second, the special raw material of nougat is egg white, which is a hydrophilic colloid. When stirred rapidly, it can be mixed with a large amount of air to form a stable foam adsorption layer. Pour it into a sugar solution with a considerable concentration, and under the condition of continuous stirring, sugar and other components can be evenly distributed in the protein foam, so that the originally thin and soft foam tissue becomes thick and gradually solid. In order to improve the stress and structural integrity of sugar, nuts and nuts are often added. In order to increase the smoothness of nougat and facilitate molding and dicing, a small amount of oil should be added after making the protein candy blank. Nougat is generally clean and white, and coloring agents can also be added, such as light brown chocolate nougat. In order to increase its fragrance, various spices are often added, such as vanilla nougat.

Thirdly, the final quality characteristics of nougat are toughness, brittleness and sandy. The processing method of crisp and sand sugar is basically the same as that of tough nougat. For sandy nougat, cocoa powder and powdered sugar should be added together with melted stearin. Sandy nougat is made of fresh and pure milk, which is sweet but not greasy.

Many researchers have confirmed that eating nougat at the best time is beneficial to the human body as long as it is ingested in moderation.
