Almonds and honey were already a common food in Greece and Rome, to give energy to Olympic athletes. Spanish nougat also has some similarities to Arabic baklava. It is mostly accepted that the recipe originated in Arab countries, but there is no proof of this.   <\/p>\n<p>In any case, this candy is important for the municipality:<\/p>\n<p>\u2013 First of all, we know that as early as 1582, turron was an important part of the Christmas culture in Alicante, as a municipal document of the time mentions that at Christmas time, the workers had Spanish nougat as a salary.<\/p>\n<p>\u2013 Then, in the play &#8220;La Generosa Paliza&#8221; by Lope de Rueda, in 1570, the turrat around which the plot revolves is called the &#8220;turron of Alicante&#8221;.<\/p>\n<p>\u2013 Finally, in 1595, Spanish nougat must have been a real passion in the city, as King Philip II was forced to write a letter asking to limit the city&#8217;s spending on turron and fig bread.<\/p>\n<p>Although the city eventually stopped producing Spanish nougat due to a trade dispute, its name remains a point of reference, associated with the hard variant of this treat.<\/p>\n<h3>For more information:<\/h3>\n<p>Find all our preparation tips on <a href=\"https:\/\/mariasimona.com\/\">Maria Simona&#8217;s website<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>Feel free to visit our blog to discover <a href=\"https:\/\/mariasimona.com\/recettes-turron\/\">our delicious recipes<\/a> .<\/p>\n<p>And for the starter, why not let yourself be tempted by <a href=\"https:\/\/epic-varahamihira.207-180-195-93.plesk.page\/\">the delicious Relais Gourmet Foies Gras <\/a>?<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Alicante turron is known as hard turron because of its crunchy texture and the unique toasting of the almonds and the mixture of honey and egg white.
