goodbye/fun facts....National Nougat Day. Made by whipping egg
whites together and adding honey or sugar, roasted nuts, and
sometimes candied fruit, some say nougat has been a sweet treat
since ancient Rome. Nougat comes from an Old Provencal French word,
“nogat” which simply means “nut cake”. In Italy, they call it
torrone. In Spain, a nougat is called turrón. The United States has
a version made with corn syrup called divinity. In the United
States, modern candy bar makers use a different recipe than the
traditional nougat...it's a mixture of sucrose and corn syrup
aerated with a whipping agent such as egg white or hydrolyzed soy
protein or gelatin. It is the preferred and often used ingredient
of large candy companies because it is inexpensive to make and used
as a filler....but just know...it's different than true nougat.
