Cupeta
Cupeta is an Italian nut brittle, especially associated with southern fairs, made from almonds or sesame bound in honey or caramelized sugar. It sets into thin glossy slabs that snap cleanly and show whole nuts suspended in amber syrup.
π Recipe adapted from Wikidata (Dessert)
Toast the nuts until fragrant and keep them warm.
Cook sugar, honey, lemon juice, orange zest, and salt until amber and bubbling.
Stir in the warm nuts quickly so they are fully coated.
Spread the mixture thinly on an oiled surface or parchment.
Score while warm, then cool completely and break into brittle pieces.
