Preparation

  1. STEP 1 OF 7

    Peel the almonds after blanching them in boiling water and chop them; then place them in a light oven to dry them well

  2. STEP 2 OF 7

    Put the sugar on the heat and let it melt, stirring with a wooden spoon until it takes on a nice blonde color, the color of barley candies

  3. STEP 3 OF 7

    At this point, add the almonds and stir so they mix evenly with the sugar: then immediately pour them onto the work surface that you have previously greased

  4. STEP 4 OF 7

    With a lemon, spread the brittle, trying to give it an even thickness: you can then cut it into diamonds or sticks

  5. STEP 5 OF 7

    If you want to try making one of those brittle fruit bowls you see in pastry shop windows, decorated with caramelized or candied fruit, you will need to choose a bowl-shaped mold and grease it

  6. STEP 6 OF 7

    After thinning the brittle on the still warm table, place it in the mold and try to fit it

  7. STEP 7 OF 7

    You can remove it when it has completely cooled
