How to make nougat (mixed fruits and vegetables)?
< p> Use vacuum low-temperature dehydration of dried fruits and vegetables, that is, freeze-dried, which is healthier. Do not use fried ones. Add nuts and dried fruits and vegetables according to your favorite taste. The total weight is up to 280 grams. If you want the ones in the main picture of the recipe For the effect of having more strawberries, freeze-dried strawberries can be about 50 to 60 grams, and the finished strawberries will be more.The materials are weighed and ready. Whole nuts can be used, dried fruits and vegetables can be cut into small pieces, and strawberries can be cut into two halves. (Whole ones can also be used, but during later shaping, due to the different sizes of strawberries, the Make the surface uneven and the cut out nougat pieces uneven) Mix the nuts and dried fruits and vegetables evenly.
The entire process of making nougat is done on the lowest fire. The lower the fire, the higher the success rate.
Put the butter into a non-stick pan (be sure to use a non-stick pan) and let it melt.
After all the butter is melted, pour in the marshmallows and stir evenly.
Stir constantly to melt.
After all the melted marshmallows are in this state, the butter and marshmallows are completely blended. Add the milk powder at this time. Don't overdo it. The finished product will be harder after a long time. If the time is too long, it will easily become mushy and cannot be used.
Pour in milk powder and stir evenly.
Mix the milk powder thoroughly and then turn off the heat (if you want the nougat to be softer, you can turn off the heat a little earlier).
Pour in the mixed nuts and dried fruits and vegetables and mix well.
After it cools down slightly, put on disposable baking gloves and knead evenly. Do not knead for too long. The temperature of the sugar body will drop and it will harden and become difficult to shape.
Place on a non-stick baking pan and press to shape with your hands. If you don't have a non-stick baking pan, you can line a regular baking pan with parchment paper to prevent it from sticking.
You can use the cake spreader and rolling pin to flatten the nougat into a neat shape. If you want softer nougat, cut it into pieces while it's still hot. If you want harder nougat, wait until it's completely cool before cutting it.
Cut into the size you like.
For matcha flavor, add 5 to 8 grams of matcha powder to the milk powder (adjust the amount of matcha powder according to your own taste) and mix well. The other steps are the same.
