In France, nut brittles are called nougat. Makes sense since the ingredients are largely the same: nuts, sugar and honey. Soft nougat also contains egg whites, making it lighter and softer, while hard brittles are cooked longer to reach caramelization. The addition of honey differentiates European from American style brittles. You can't miss the delicious flavor of lavender honey in this regional specialty from Provence ~ it will linger in your mouth for some time.
