Recipe for 6 people:
- 500g whole almonds
- 150g caster sugar
- 250g honey

Peel all the almonds by putting them in boiling water for a couple minutes and plunging them into iced cold water.

Place your pot back on the heat and allow to cook for another few minutes. Then add the almonds. Whisk the egg white into a stiff and firm foam and delicately fold it to the caramelized almond mixture.
Take a well greased oven tray and pour this mixture onto it.
Bake into a preheated oven at its maximum 10 minutes.
Then take the oven dish out. Allow to cool down for a while then place in the fridge to harden.
Cut into squares.
