January 26 is National Peanut Brittle Day. Coincidentally, I had the pleasure of making a version of peanut brittle from the African country of Benin very recently. If you are in a peanut brittle mood, what better day to honor that mood than January 26? Check-out my little blog entry on Benin's Confit d'Arachide (or candied peanuts) here! You will love this three ingredient charmer.
For some more history on brittle, read this. I had no idea this had Celtic origins.
