Chinese New Year Snacks-------Homemade Peanut Sesame Candies
Overview
It will be New Year's Eve in three or four days, and everyone is returning home one after another. We are also working very actively to clear inventory. I was bored last night, so I started to mess around again. A pack of Jiugui Peanuts - I bought them the last time I was shopping for dry goods online. Peanuts from Shandong are plump and crispy. Sometimes I make kung pao chicken as an ingredient, and occasionally LG steals the food. I'm afraid he will get too angry, so I take out a small portion each time, then hide it in the locker and forget to destroy it. There is also a pack of white sesame seeds. We have a bad habit. We like to have all the ingredients in the kitchen. When the mood strikes, we can cook whatever we like. If we flip through it, there will always be something to cook. The result of this habit is that there are a lot of things, and there is a little bit of everything left. I bought this sesame seed just to sprinkle a little bit on an omelette, and now it is lying quietly. There is also a small bag of bulk rock sugar. I saw a nougat dish made by others recently, which also included peanut and sesame candies, so I wanted to try it. After all, we have never made desserts before. When we were young, we would buy them during the Chinese New Year. Now we try it ourselves to see which one tastes better. Unexpectedly, when the finished product came out, LG was full of praise for it. It tastes very fragrant. Our peanuts and sesame are all made from real ingredients, and we also use rock sugar, which is not as greasy as white sugar. It is not difficult to make, just follow the same pattern and pay attention to the heat. Even if it is made by a novice, I believe it will not fail. If you serve it like this during the Chinese New Year, it should be widely praised.
