Ingredients

  • 3/4 cup sugar
  • 1/4 cup water
  • 1 3/4 cups dry-roasted peanuts
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons Middle Eastern rose water

Instructions

  1. 1

    Line a baking sheet with foil.

  2. 2

    Bring sugar and water to a boil in a 3-quart heavy saucepan over moderate heat, stirring until sugar is dissolved.

  3. 3

    Stir in peanuts and boil, stirring frequently, until syrup thickens, about 8 minutes.

  4. 4

    Reduce heat to moderately low and stir in 1/4 teaspoon salt.

  5. 5

    Continue cooking, stirring and scraping any bits of crystallized sugar from side of pan into mixture (it will become very gritty), until sugar is golden brown, 2 to 3 minutes more. (Sugar will still be gritty.) Remove from heat and stir in rose water.
