Nougat Recipe

A pound of granulated sugar, one teaspoonful of salt, one cup of

blanched and finely chopped almonds or peanuts, or it may be made of

mixed nuts. Dissolve the sugar in a spider over the fire without water,

stirring constantly, and when entirely melted mix in the nuts quickly

and pour at once into a well greased pan, and before it is cold mark in

squares. This is very nice pounded fine in a mortar or ground in a mill

to sprinkle over custards just before serving.
