Turkish Delight, also known as Lokum, is a popular confectionery originating from Turkey. In simple words, it is a jelly-like soft nougat bar mainly made from starch and sugar and typically flavoured with rosewater, lemon, or other fruit flavours. Known for its exotic flavours and beautiful texture, Turkish Delight has captured the hearts and taste buds of confectionery enthusiasts around the globe. Traditional Turkish Delight is 100% vegan; its recipe doesn't contain animal products. But some modern variations or commercially produced versions might include ingredients like gelatin or dairy. Nougat is a confectionery made with sugar or honey, roasted nuts (almonds, walnuts, pistachios or hazelnuts are common) and sometimes chopped, candied fruit. The consistency of nougat can range from chewy to hard depending on its composition. 3. Is nougat a marshmallow?

Put the chopped and toasted nuts in a very low oven to warm them before you stir them through the mixture. A 750ml tin will provide a coat of up to 12.5m 2. For a durable finish, a minimum of 2 coats is required, so your 750ml tin should provide full coverage for just over 6m 2 on non-porous surfaces like laminate or metal. In Britain, nougat is traditionally made in the style of the southern European varieties, and is commonly found at fairgrounds and seaside resorts. The most common industrially produced type [13] is coloured pink and white, the pink often fruit flavoured, and sometimes wrapped in edible rice paper with almonds and cherries. Porous, or ‘thirsty’ surfaces like bare wood or MDF, tend to absorb paint meaning additional coats are likely to be required to achieve a durable finish. In this case, your 750ml tin will provide less than 6m 2 of full coverage. If you apply the paint too thinly, durability may be affected. Surface preparation required in addition to the above – clean with Frenchic Sugar Soap, rinse and dry thoroughly. Hand-sand sufficiently to abrade the surface. Wipe off any dust, paint away! For a great demonstration, see our video from Frenchic TV.

Many legends exist around nougat's origins. Early recipes of white nougat were found in a Middle Eastern book in Baghdad in the 10th century. That nougat was called ناطف nāṭif. [6] One of these recipes indicates that the nāṭif comes from Harran, a city located between Urfa (now in southeast Turkey) and Aleppo, Syria. Mention of nāṭif was found in a triangle between Urfa, Aleppo, and Baghdad. At the end of the 10th century, the traveler and geographer Ibn Hawqal wrote that he ate some nāṭif in Manbij (in modern Syria) and Bukhara (in modern Uzbekistan). [7] Distribution and popularity [ edit ] Nicola first explored cooking as a career when training at Leiths, before spending the next decade in Finance. However... after a stage as a chef at a London Michelin-starred restaurant, Nicola saw the incredible ingredients available only to chefs. And wanted access to them herself. So Sous Chef was born.It comes in various flavours depending on the flavourings added to it. But it generally has a sweet and floral flavour profile. Don’t rush things at the start. Don’t let the sugar syrup bubble before all the sugar grains have melted. Boiling too early increases the risk of the sugar crystallising, and if that happens you’ll have to start all over again. Having said that…
