  • This is an authentic Praline recipe from my family in Louisiana. I show step by step how to make these delightful candy treats. Recipe is below.
    Pecan Pralines
    2 1/2 Cups Sugar (separated)
    3/4 Cup Evaporated Milk
    1 1/2 Cups Chopped Pecans
    1/2 Tbsp Butter
    1 tsp Vanilla extract
    Pinch of Salt
    Wax Paper layed out onto countertop for cooling the Pralines
    Stir in 1/2 cup of sugar into an iron skillet on high heat. Heat sugar until melted and caramel colored. Remove from heat.
    Stir in 2 cups sugar and evaporated milk. Return to high heat and bring to a boil. Boil for 3 minutes. Remove from heat.
    Stir in pecans, salt, butter, and vanilla. Continue stirring off of the heat for 3-5 minutes or until thickened.
    Drop by spoonful onto wax paper and let cool for at least 1 hour. Enjoy!!!

    Have not tried this yet, although I have had pralines in Nola. Two things I always look for are ease of recipe (fewer steps the better) and a genuine enthusiasm on the part of the cook (always noticeable when it's pizza being made). Looking forward to giving this a go. Thank you for the video.

      T-ROY COOKS You are welcome sir. I have a question for you. Do you know by any chance how to make Louisiana Fish fry? I live in the Netherlands and unfortunately I can't buy it here in the stores! When I visit my friendds in TX and Louisiana I will get the bags from the grocery stores, but now I have nothing.

    • @TROYCOOKS
      @TROYCOOKS  10 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      jerricette I have never made the La Fish Fry since it's easily found locally, but it's really a simple mix you could make yourself. It is mainly finely ground corn flour, or finely ground corn meal mixed with plain flour. Just throw in some Cajun type spices like black pepper, salt, cayenne red pepper, etc. It's really that simple.

    • @Jerricette
      @Jerricette 10 ปีที่แล้ว

      Thank you so much! I will try the fish fry. By the way I have tried the pralines, but I think I have used the wrong milk. It got very hard. I will try it this week again.

    • @TROYCOOKS
      @TROYCOOKS  10 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      jerricette Yes, you need whole cow's milk. Another factor that may mess you up is the humidity in the air. Like all baking and candy type recipes, humidity can make a huge difference in how the final product comes out. 30-50 percent humidity is ideal. My 2nd batch a week later was gummy and never hardened, but my 3rd batch a few days later was perfect. So, just keep trying and choose a nice sunny day to make your pralines. Even if they don't turn out right, they are still good to eat! LOL

  • @s.a.livingston3815
    @s.a.livingston3815 7 ปีที่แล้ว

    Yay! I made your recipe successfully - as in the first time ever that my pralines were not an epic fail. I thought they might be because my mixture was not thickening up as I stirred after taking off the heat. The spoon made a trail but it kept running back together. SO I simply put it back on the heat and boiled for another three minutes. Then after that I got it to set up,over quickly to drop them on wax paper...and voila!...beauties! I used 2 cups of pecans, and next time I will use less because these are a bit too thick and heavy with pecans. I like them flatter. Anyway I'm just thrilled that I didn't have to toss the whole thing in the trash as I've had to do with prior efforts. They set up (yay!) and they taste great (double yay!). Thank you, T-Roy! ♡

    I just finished my first batch of pralines according to your recipe instructions. I used a heavy bottom stainless steel pot. I used half whire and half brown which was actually evaporated cane sugar crystals. I used walnuts this time because they were left from Christmas, So I carmelized the white sugar etc added 1/2 cup evap milk stirred about 3 min and then added the nuts and vanilla stirring constantly and looking for it to leave a trail when pushing the spoon through the mixture. I might have cooked them a bit too long but overall am very satisfied with my first batch.

    • @TROYCOOKS
      @TROYCOOKS  5 ปีที่แล้ว

      Cooking Pralines is very dependent on your local weather. It's a lot like baking. I'd use a candy thermometer to be safe, but sometimes, doing it the old fashioned way is much more exhilarating.

    I just made this recipe as shown in the video, and the pralines came out beautifully. I made a couple of errors, though. I used 2 tablespoons of butter instead of 1/2 tablespoon-I followed what I thought I saw and didn’t read the recipe. :-( I also used 4 cups of pecans instead of 1.5-I had a monster-sized bag of pecans from Costco that I wanted to use up. I ground 1 cup of the pecans finely and coarsely chopped the rest.
    I think the biggest lesson I learned was to to preheat my cast iron skillet to high heat before adding the sugar, and evenly add the sugar in the middle of the skillet. What I actually did was to sprinkle the sugar across the entire bottom of my skillet and THEN turn on the heat. Because the sugar on the edges was cooler than the sugar heating in the center of the pan, it tended to clump and crystallize instead of melt. This led to some jagged spots on the bottom of the pan when I was stirring in the rest of the sugar and evaporated milk; as a consequence, I inadvertently splattered some on my hand while stirring. Ouch!
    Despite my mistakes, I can’t wait to make another batch.

    My great-grandmother had many Pecans trees on her property outside of Houston. Each year we were sent a large bag of these Texan pecans and my mother, and my grandmother used to make an awesome recipe for Pralines. I have not had homemade Pralines for years, T-Roy your recipe is spot on to what I enjoyed in my youth. 2 thumbs up!

    • @TROYCOOKS
      @TROYCOOKS  10 ปีที่แล้ว

      Much appreciated Glen. Pralines are a delightful treat here in the South. I can't get enough of them!!! Glad I could stir up some fond memories of your youth. You should make some of these pralines for Kyung!!!

    • @TROYCOOKS
      @TROYCOOKS  7 ปีที่แล้ว

      Hey Mike, this is a very old recipe from Louisiana. If you try it, just make sure it's not raining or too humid. If there is too much moisture in the air, they won't turn out right. If you try it, please let me know what you think! I think they are the real deal from what I remember growing up in Baton Rouge. Have a blessed week my friend!!! Cheers, Troy

    T-Roy, thank you so much for this recipe and for the video. I'm a Louisiana girl. I was born and raised in the Morgan City area. Can you believe that I can't cook to save my life? Lately, I've especially wanted to know how to make pralines. I've had all the ingredients for a while but have been too scared to try it out, until I watched your video. I'm going to try these tomorrow. Can't wait to watch your other videos so that I can learn how to cook. It's a shame that a Cajun girl doesn't know how to cook, isn't it?

    • @TROYCOOKS
      @TROYCOOKS  9 ปีที่แล้ว

      Olivia Grace Ah, Morgan City. I've been through there quite a few times. Yeah Olivia, that's a crying shame you can't cook growing up around such fine meals and fresh seafood all around. I'm sure you'll nail the pralines and will be making more batches of them soon. They are so much better than that junk you get from a store. Hope you have a wonderful week!!! Thanks for watching!

      What is the difference between pralines and brittle ? Do you cook brittle longer ?

    • @pr0n3
      @pr0n3 8 ปีที่แล้ว

      lucia nguyen Pralines have a soft texture and brittle has a crunchy/hard texture. Hope that helps.

    • @lovedog49507
      @lovedog49507 8 ปีที่แล้ว

      Gmork So, is the brittle cook longer to get a harder texture ? Thanks

    • @pr0n3
      @pr0n3 8 ปีที่แล้ว

      lucia nguyen They are actually different recipes. Brittle is mainly made of sugar, corn syrup, salt,and nuts. Pralines are usually made with Sugar, Brown Sugar, Evaporated Milk, Butter and pecans. They are also cooked slightly different as well.

  • @michaelesralian1268
    @michaelesralian1268 5 ปีที่แล้ว

    I ran into a couple of problems. When I added the room temp evap. milk the sugar began to crystallize. So I got the temperature back up and dissolved all the sugar then started timing the 3 minutes when it came to a boil. Mine turned out too loose. They never got hard enough to remove from the paper. So I enjoyed them by eating them off the parchment paper. The taste was good but mine never got very hard. Next time I will try boiling 5 minutes and adding the milk very slowly. I could probably get the same result by adding less milk. I did everything just like you, even using a cast iron skillet.
