Experience the delectable taste of Turron de Jijona, a soft nougat delicacy that has been expertly crafted in the town of Jijona, Spain for generations. Its irresistibly sweet and almond-infused flavor is sure to leave a lasting impression.
The main ingredients of "turrón de Jijona" are as follows:
Ground almonds: these are the main ingredient and give the nougat its characteristic taste and texture. Marcona almonds, a high-quality variety, are generally used.
Honey: used for sweetening and flavouring.
Sugar: complements the sweetness of the honey.
Egg white: used as an emulsifier to bind the ingredients together and create a creamy texture.
This traditional Spanish Christmas treat, known as Jijona nougat, is made by roasting and grinding almonds into a fine paste. The paste is then combined with honey, sugar, and an egg white for a smooth texture. Once cooked and cooled, it's appreciated for its unique quality and taste, both nationally and internationally. It's guaranteed to be of supreme quality by the Regulatory Council for Protected Geographical Indications Jijona and Turrón de Alicante. The origin, production, and ingredients are all carefully chosen to create this classic and traditional variety.
INGREDIENTS: Toasted almonds 64%, sugar, honey 10%, egg white.
