Steps

  • Line a 17cm square tin with baking parchment and rice paper.
  • Dissolve sugar, honey, and glucose in 125ml water over gentle heat.
  • Boil the mixture until it reaches 125°C.
  • Whisk egg whites in a freestanding mixer until stiff peaks form.
  • Continue boiling the syrup until it reaches 149°C and turns dark caramel.
  • Dip the pan base in cold water to stop the cooking process.
  • Slowly pour the caramel into the mixer while running at moderate speed.
  • Mix for 5 to 8 minutes until the nougat is light and off-white.
  • Fold in the candied peel, dried blueberries, and most of the almonds.

  • Top with chocolate chips, remaining almonds, and fresh blueberries.
  • Allow to set for several hours before cutting into pieces.
