How to make pistachio nougat

There are so many single men and women in society today, and if you are still not married when you reach the marriageable age, your family must be very anxious. What should you do? You will definitely wait to find something better. But while waiting, you might as well improve yourself and learn to cook a few delicious side dishes to add points to yourself. Now let me introduce to you how to make pistachio nougat.

1.12 Peel the pistachios. By the way, let me tell you how to choose high-quality pistachios: Don’t buy pistachios that are too white. The high-quality pistachios have a natural creamy yellow shell and green kernels wrapped in purple skin. Be careful~ the white fruit shells may be bleached :(

2.21 Pour maltose, white sugar and water into the pot, and cook slowly and drip until it reaches above 140 degrees. It should be noted that the temperature of the sugar will quickly rise to about 120 degrees, but it will take 40 to 60 minutes to reach above 140 degrees! If you have a thermometer, you can use it to measure the temperature. If not, prepare a glass of ice water, put chopsticks into the pot of boiling sugar, dip some sugar liquid on the chopsticks, and then quickly soak them in the ice water. If the sugar liquid can immediately solidify into relatively solid small sugar beads, it means that the temperature is enough.

3. The temperature of boiling sugar must reach 140 degrees, but it can't be too high, otherwise~~ if the temperature is not enough, the nougat will be too soft and not formed; if the temperature is too high, it will taste too hard

4. Crack an egg in advance and separate the egg white and yolk. When the temperature of the sugar reaches about 130 degrees, you can beat the egg whites until they are stiff and foamy. That is, when you lift the egg beater, there will be a triangular tip that does not fall or tilt.

5. After the egg whites are beaten, the syrup should also be boiled to 140 degrees. At this time, quickly pour in the boiling hot syrup and stir quickly with an electric whisk.

6. Keep stirring until you feel the whisk is struggling to turn.

7. Pour in pistachios and mix well

The pistachio nougat introduced above is rich in nutrients and the preparation method is not very complicated. If you want to try it, hurry up and prepare the ingredients!
