More about Pistachio and Almond Nougat
Nougat is produced by whipping egg whites and honey in copper pans over high heat. While still pliable and hot, nuts are folded in and the mixture is spread out in wooden molds lined with wafer paper, where it cools until it can be cut and wrapped.
If your vision of nougat is tough, tooth-breaking bricks, you’re in for a pleasant surprise. Murat’s nougat is incredibly supple. Aromatic honey lends a gentle sweetness, while fresh, flavorful pistachios and almonds offer textural contrast.
About Vadeboncoeur Nougat
Didier Murat hails from the Rhône-Alpes region of France, where he grew up with a famously chewy, aromatic nougat called Nougat de Montélimar. He began making it initially for friends and family as Christmas gifts. After he moved to Vermont by way of New York City, a friend who owned a chocolate shop offered to sell it. Soon after, Vadeboncoeur was born.
“It's a very small operation. I have adapted it to what one person could do by hand. If I would have to use mechanical mixers, it wouldn't be the same product.”
