1 cup Roasted pistachios almonds
2 cups Sugar
1 cup Corn syrup
1 cup Honey
1/2 teaspoon Cream of tartar
3 Egg whites
1/4 teaspoon Salt
1 teaspoon Vanilla
1/4 cup Oil for pan
Cornstarch (or see note)

Note: Sweet rice flour or thin rice wafers may be used instead of cornstarch to
line pan.

Roast nuts on shallow pan in preheated oven at 350 degrees F for 10 minutes.
Combine sugar, corn syrup, water, and cream of tartar in a deep sauce pot.
Stir
gently over medium heat until sugar dissolves and bring to a boil. After it
comes to a boil, cover pot for 5 minutes, then wash down sides of pot with a
clean brush to remove sugar crystals. Continue cooking on medium-high heat to
272 degrees F on a jelly thermometer. Remove from heat.
In a separate pot heat honey to boil.
Whip egg whites and salt until stiff and dry using a heavy electric mixer and
large bowl. Add a small amount of honey at first in a thin stream, very
slowly.
Beat in vanilla and continue adding remaining honey and then syrup. Beat
until
batch thickens and the beater slows down. Add nuts and blend in.
Oil a long shallow pan. Sift a thick layer of cornstarch or sweet rice flour
over it or lay rice wafers over bottom. Pour out the nougat. Dust top with
more
rice flour or thin rice wafers and let stand overnight to set. Cut into
rectangular pieces about 3/4″ by 1″ and wrap individually in heavy waxed paper.

Karen Mintzias
1 lb Raw medium shrimp
Salt
1/2 Sweet red pepper
8 Chives
2 tb Unsalted roasted peanuts

—————————SAUCE—————————
2 tb Fish sauce
2 tb Lime juice
2 tb Water
2 ts Sugar
1 ts Chinese chili sauce
2 Garlic cloves
– finely minced
2 tb Chopped fresh basil

ADVANCE PREPARATION: Shell the shrimp, then devein by
cutting along the top of the curve, starting at the
tail and making a progressively deeper cut so the
knife nearly cuts through the shrimp at the thick end.
Rinse out the vein. Bring a large amount of lightly
salted water to a rapid boil and add the shrimp. Cook
until shrimp are done, between 1 and 2 minutes. To
test, cut a shrimp in half; it should be white in the
center. Transfer the shrimp immediately to a bowl of
ice water to cool. When chilled, drain and
refrigerate until ready to use.

Mince and place in separate containers the red pepper
and chives. Finely chop the peanuts in a food
processor and set aside. Combine the sauce
ingredients and mix well.

LAST-MINUTE PREPARATION: Toss the shrimp with the
sauce. Put in a decorative bowl and place the bowl in
crushed ice. Sprinkle the shrimp with the red pepper,
chives and peanuts. Serve at once.

Serves: 4 to 8 as an appetizer or 4 as a first course.
