Making Hard Almond Nougat (Alicante) is not easy. First, the caramel is prepared by mixing honey and sugar. Subsequently, egg white is added to the mixture as a whitener and emulsifier. Once the ‘punto de gargirol’ is reached—the point where the caramel breaks easily—the toasted and peeled almonds are added. Afterwards, it is left to cool and placed into large molds where blocks are formed, which are then divided into the traditional bars or Hard Almond Nougat (Alicante) tablets that you can buy here.
