Tips:
1. The most important thing to make peanut candy is to master the boiling time of syrup. When the fire is not enough, the taste is sticky; Peanut candy breaks easily if the fire is too hot. Therefore, when frying sugar, if you are not very skilled, you'd better fry it slowly with a small fire. After the sugar melts, maltose can be poured in. After maltose melts, you must use a small fire to master it better. The trick to judge whether the syrup is cooked is to dip a little syrup with chopsticks and then insert it into cold water. When the syrup solidifies and bites crisp, it means that it is cooked well. Try it several times when you feel almost cooked, so that you can grasp the heat in time.
2. After the syrup is boiled, pour peanuts while it is hot. If the syrup is cold, it is difficult to mix well.
3. When cutting peanut candy in step 1 1, cut it while it is hot. You can cut the whole peanut candy when it is slightly dry to make it a little harder. Don't wait until the peanut candy cools and becomes brittle before cutting it, because it is easily broken;
4. When frying peanuts, the fire should not be too big, especially after hearing the sound of peanuts "crackling", be sure to turn to a small fire to avoid burning.
