Indeed, white and black nougats count amongst the traditional 13 desserts present on the typical provincial Christmas table.<br \/>\nFor more than a century and as secretly transmitted by Batistin Fouque, the same recipe is used with respect for the rigorous ingredient proportion and the critical cooking time.<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #a0bb80;\">\n\t\t<div class='et_quote'>\n\t\t\t<div class='et_right_quote'>\n\t\t\t\tIn respect to the tradition, local villagers pack nougats at the chimney corner relating the last news of the village.\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t<span class='et_quote_sign'><\/span>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t<\/span><\/p>\n<p>For a long time the Fouque Nougat has not only seduced the local area but has been distributed all over Provence.
