Grand Fir Dark Nougat<\/p>\nGrand Fir Dark Nougat<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
1 T. butter<\/p>\n
1\/2 cup of minced grand fir needles (keep a tablespoon back for garnish)<\/p>\n
1 cup honey<\/p>\n
2 cups roasted hazelnuts (or almonds)<\/p>\n
pinch of thyme (fresh or dried)<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
In a food processor pulse Grand fir needles (or mince finely by hand) and mix into your honey. Line a small tin with aluminum foil and butter it well. Pour the honey in a saucepan. Bring to a simmer, stirring constantly, and cook at low heat for 10 minutes. Add the thyme and nuts and continue cooking for another 10 minutes, stirring constantly. When nuts begin to crackle and honey thickens to an amber brown, your nougat is ready. If you have candy thermometer you ideally you want a temperature around 266 \u00b0F or 125 \u00b0C Be warned, if you overcook the honey at too high a heat your nougat will come out hard as a rock \u2013 so keep a close watch.) To test, drop a teaspoon of honey into a glass of cold water; it should harden immediately. Remove honey from the heat and stir for 2 more minutes. Carefully pour the honey mixture into the buttered tin (it will still be very hot). Smooth the mixture with a metal spoon. When the nougat is completely cool, break it into small pieces with the back of a knife. Store in a cool place.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
