The technique that changes everything: Cantonese caramelization for an unparalleled result

Not all caramelizing is the same. The Cantonese technique – inherited from the Asian tradition of working nuts with its own cooking and coating methods – produces a radically different result than Western caramelization.

The process begins with a 24-hour maceration in syrup, which allows the walnut to absorb the sugar deeply and evenly; the pieces are then fried in olive oil, which causes the excess sugar to be immediately removed and the coating to set with that characteristic shine and perfectly homogeneous caramelization.

The result is less sweet, more complex in flavor and with a superior resistance to humidity – known in the industry as wet-proof – which makes the CantonesE Pecan Nut an exceptional technical ally: it maintains its crunchy texture even in contact with creams, mousses, ice creams or dressings.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the real difference between the Cantonese Pecan Nut and a conventional caramelized pecan nut?
The difference is both technical and sensory. Cantonese caramelization uses an Asian cooking and coating process that produces a thinner, shinier and more uniform coating, with less sugar content and greater resistance to humidity. The result is a piece that is more balanced in sweetness, more stable in humid environments and visually more attractive than classic baked caramelized or caramelized.
Does it maintain crispness when in contact with creams, ice creams or mousses?
Yes, this is precisely one of its most valued technical advantages. Thanks to its wet-proof character, CANTONESE PECAN NUT WET-PROOF maintains its crunchy texture for a longer time in contact with wet preparations, unlike conventional caramelized nuts, which tend to soften quickly. It is recommended, however, to add it at the time of service or final assembly to maximize the effect.
How does it affect its texture and flavor if it is kept for more than two weeks after opening the package?
After two weeks of opening, the nut may start to lose crispness and pick up moisture or aromas from the environment, which negatively affects its sensory profile. It is recommended to keep the package tightly closed at room temperature (15-25 °C), away from sources of moisture, direct light and strong smelling products, and to respect the two-week period to ensure optimum quality at each serving.
