“Peanut brittle” is a deliciously crunchy snack enjoyed by people of all ages. This traditional Thai sweet has been popular for generations, thanks to its rich, nutty flavor from roasted peanuts and sesame seeds, perfectly balanced with the crisp sweetness of caramelized sugar.
The golden-brown, tempting peanut brittle gets its unique texture from glucose syrup (Bae-sae), which is added to the sugar while cooking. This ingredient helps bind the brittle together, resulting in a crunchy yet non-sticky texture that makes it irresistibly enjoyable.
Today, we’ll guide you through an easy homemade peanut brittle recipe, complete with expert tips to ensure a perfect, professional-quality treat. Let’s get started!
