Almonds, honey, eggs, sugar, natural vanilla—mix it all together and you get delicious nougat.
Popular since the first paid vacations, nougat originated with the Romans, who were the first to make it. Later, the Gauls made it famous after settling in Montélimar. Originally called "nux gatum," meaning cake made with honey and walnuts, then "nougo" in Provençal, this famous confection is now known simply as nougat in French. Even today, nougat is enjoyed by everyone and is closely associated with Montélimar.
