Ingredients

Honey, lavender and nut praline
  • 1 cup pistachio nuts, toasted
  • 1 teaspoon lavender petals
  • 1 cup sugar
  • 2 tablespoon honey
  • 1/3 cup water

Method

Honey, lavender and nut praline
  • 1
    Line a large oven tray with baking paper. Scatter nuts and petals evenly over surface.
  • 2
    In a medium saucepan, combine sugar, honey and water. Stir over low heat until sugar dissolves. Increase heat to medium and bring to boil. Cook for 8-10 minutes, without stirring, until a light golden caramel (hard-crack stage).
  • 3
    Allow bubbles to subside. Pour toffee over nuts and petals. Tilt tray, spreading toffee into a thin layer. Set aside to cool completely. Break into shards.

Notes

The added honey will make the toffee appear golden before it's at hard-crack stage, so it's best to use a sugar thermometer and get a precise judgement.
