Peanut brittle
Brittle is a type of sweet consisting of flat broken pieces of hard sugar candy with nuts mixed into it, such as pecans, almonds, or peanuts. It is usually less than 1 centimeter thick. It has many variations around the world, such as pasteli in Greece, sohan in Iran, croquant in France, alegría or palanqueta in Mexico, gozinaki in Georgia, gachak or gajak in Indian Punjab, [[Chikki|chikki]] in other parts of India, kotkoti in Bangladesh, sohan halwa in Pakistan,  huasheng tang (花生糖) in China, thua tat (ถั่วตัด) in Thailand and kẹo lạc in Vietnam. In parts of the Middle East, brittle is made with pistachios. Many Asian countries use sesame seeds and peanuts. Peanut brittle is the most popular brittle recipe in the United States. The term "brittle", was first printed in 1892 meaning food, though the candy itself has been around for much longer.
