The difference between snowflake pastry and nougat
From the practice of nougat and snowflake pastry, the two in fact, not very much difference, rough point to say! Snowflake pastry can be regarded as nougat version 2.0, the only difference may be that the snowflake pastry than nougat added some more crispy cookies, so that the taste has a great enhancement. The snowflake pastry is often made with nuts such as Batan wood kernels and walnuts, and sweet and chewy dried cranberries and blackcurrants are added to the mix for scientific purposes, so let's let it play happily with nougat.
Snowflake pastry
1, ingredients:
200 grams of marshmallows (mini small particles), 150 grams of small cookies (small Chiffon cookies), 50 grams of butter, 60 grams of whole milk powder, 50 grams of dried cranberries, 50 grams of pistachios, 50 grams of walnuts
2, practices:
1, non-stick frying pan into the butter, open the Melt into a liquid over low heat, add mini particles of marshmallow and stir constantly with a spatula. The marshmallows should choose small particles, so that in the heat process is easier to melt
2, the marshmallows completely melted sprinkled into the milk powder, stirred evenly in time to turn off the fire, excessive heating will make the snowflake pastry taste too hard.
3, add dried cranberries, pistachios, walnuts, small crackers and other ingredients, mixed and stirred into a ball, transfer to a square plate while hot.
4: Press down with your hands, shape into a square, sift a layer of powdered milk on each side, and let cool naturally for 30 minutes. It's best to grease a square pan and gloves with cooking oil during this step so that they don't stick to your hands when shaping.
5, and then cut into square pieces with a knife can be, if you need to bottle storage, in the small pieces of snowflake pastry around and then evenly sprinkled with milk powder, so that both increase the creamy flavor and prevent sticking.
Snowflake pastry tips
1, marshmallows need to be white, not colored.
2, do not like cranberry pro can use raisins or dried blueberries and so on everything you like to eat dried fruit instead.
3, the integrated dried fruit you can put according to their own preferences, I put peanuts and cranberries, you can also choose the other Batan wood and so on, but it is highly recommended to put the pistachios, really delicious, next time I intend to add a bit of black sesame seeds, it should be also very fragrant.
4, I read a few recipes, the minimum amount of cookies is 150 grams, high and even useful to 200 grams, I think our first time to do, I'm afraid that package is not good, it's best to do the minimum amount of safer, or packaged in, it's ugly, if you can pack, of course, pack more, eat it is less sweet.
Note
If once found that the bottom of the pan marshmallow a little yellow, can be suspended from the pan to pick up and melt, and, need to make sure that your non-stick pan without grease, general yellowing may also have grease was stuck, resulting in localized overheating yellow
