The best memory of childhood-----Homemade peanut nougat
Overview
Chinese New Year is usually closely related to eating, and candies are indispensable during the New Year. Even if you don’t like to eat sweets, you still feel like you should buy some during the New Year. Sweet candies symbolize happiness and sweetness in the coming year. Nougat is a very popular candy. It is a mixture of sweet sugar and crushed peanuts, making it super chewy and fragrant. Although it is the best memory of my childhood, I actually didn't like this kind of candy very much when I was a child, but its appearance is deeply imprinted in my mind. It feels so warm and sweet, and looking at it reminds me of the happy times of my childhood. The original intention of making this candy was because my little bear liked it, and I gradually fell in love with it. I like nougat not only because it is a delicious candy, but also because of its outer packaging. I like the black and white pattern the most, and the most representative cow pattern, which looks very cute.
