Can you recook homemade peanut brittle or fix it?

Can you recook homemade peanut brittle or fix it?

I made peanut brittle. I put the peanuts in to early and they burnt. I want to melt it down, take out burnt peanuts and remake, can I do this?






Hi Mary,

I don't believe that it's possible to recook homemade peanut brittle once it's already set. I'm sorry to hear that your peanut brittle didn't turn out as well as you hoped on the first time around.

I hope you'll give it another try and that it works out beautifully for you!

Kind regards,
Angie

Recooking Peanut Brittle
by: Cheryl

YES! You CAN recook peanut brittle if it comes out too soft. I just recooked a batch in the microwave that had been cooked first on a stove. You have to be very careful (watchful) to make sure it doesn't burn and stir it a couple of times while it is reheating, but it CAN be done.
Reheat peanut brittle...

Hi Cheryl,

Thanks so much for letting us know that you CAN reheat peanut brittle if you didn't get it firm enough the first time around. I didn't think it was possible, but I'm so happy to be wrong. That's what I love about this site. Everyone is willing to share their experiences so we can all enjoy our candy making adventures more! :)
Right brittle?
by: Anonymous

I just made a brittle of various nuts. In the recipe I was following it said to reach 300'...I did not wait , so I did it with a temperature of 250. The result is fine I guess. i have never made brittle before. It is not super hard....is it supposed to be??
Thank you
