Sugar is a must-have for the New Year. When I was young, I went to the New Year’s Eve. No matter who I visited, I would always get a few candies. The candy wrapped in Huahualuo candy paper, I couldn’t bear to eat it. Count every day. Only sugar paper is left. At that time, I was not willing to eat a whole piece of nougat at a time, and half of the rest was wrapped in sugar paper and kept for the tooth-making ceremony. With the improvement of people's living standards, sugar is no longer the only snack for the New Year, but the sugar that heralds a better and sweeter life is still full of sweet blessings for the new year's life. It is a must for every family.
The method of using marshmallows to make nougat is very simple. Use the melted viscosity of marshmallows to wrap the nuts and cut them into pieces after cooling. "

Tips:
Xiaoyingzi's words:
1. The pots used must be non-stick pots, otherwise the sugar will be sticky everywhere and it is not easy to operate.
2. Be sure to use a silicone spatula, who knows how to use it.
3. The fire must be small, otherwise it will be easy to confuse.
4. The finished nougat must be placed in a non-stick container until it is completely cooled, otherwise it will be sticky and difficult to take out.
5. Marshmallows must choose white ones without filling.
6. The nuts can be exchanged according to personal preference. You can put walnuts, American almonds or even dried cranberries as long as you like dried fruits.
7. When roasting peanuts, watch them in the oven in the last few minutes, don't bake them.
