Penuche often has a tannish color, and is lighter than regular fudge.[2] It is formed by the caramelization of brown sugar; thus, its flavor is said to be reminiscent of caramel. Nuts, especially pecans, are often added to penuche for texture, especially in the making of penuche candies.[1] It is primarily a regional food, found in New England and some places in the Southern United States, though in the latter it goes by different names, including creamy praline fudge, and brown sugar fudge candy. OriginsPanocha is said to come from the Spanish word for 'raw sugar'.[3] It was also long rumored to be slightly dirty or naughty in nature in Portuguese as slang. Penuche is thought to have origins in Portugal and was made popular in New England among Portuguese whaling families in New Bedford, MA, and Essex, CT, during the whaling period of the mid to late 1700's through the end of commercial whaling. This also explains why the fudge is popular almost nowhere else but in Hawaii - brought there by whaling ships and still found in candy shops on Oahu, The Big Island, and Maui. Penuche is also used as a boiled icing flavor. In Hawaii, its name is localized as panocha or panuche. Hawaiian cooks often reminisce about both panocha fudge and icing. As an icing, it was common as topping for prune cake.[4]RecipesPenuche is classed in the fudge family because it follows a similar method of preparation:
Most traditional (i.e. not "no-cook" or "quick") fudges follow a similar preparation method. What distinguishes penuche is the use of brown sugar rather than white. In recent years, it has become common in New England to add maple syrup to the recipe for penuche fudge. Some confectioners will call this "maple syrup penuche fudge", and others do not make any distinction at all. One penuche-style recipe is called "no-bake penuche drop cookies",[5] which is made from brown sugar, milk, butter, oats, and nuts. A very similar confection is Sucre à la Crème (cream sugar), a Québec confection traditionally prepared during the winter holiday season.[6] The universality of the brown sugar and dairy confection manifests in the form of a slightly crumblier treat called Tablet originating in Scotland.[7] References1. ^1 {{cite web |url=http://www.pastrysampler.com/Questions_and_Answers/penuche.htm |title=Penuche Candy: What is it and how is it spelled? |accessdate=2008-03-11 |date=2005-11-01}} 2. ^{{cite web |url=http://www.slashfood.com/2007/07/22/happy-national-penuche-fudge-day/ |title=Happy National Penuche Fudge Day! - Slashfood |first= Bob |last= Sassone |date=2007-07-22 |accessdate=2008-03-11}} 3. ^{{cite book|title=The Woman's Day Encyclopedia of Cookery|publisher=Fawcett Publications|year=1966|volume=9|location=New York|chapter=Penuche}} 4. ^{{cite web| url= http://maona.net/archives/2005/11/penuche.php |title= Penuche| date= November 2005| website= maona.net | publisher=māʻona |archiveurl= https://web.archive.org/web/20090308100319/http://maona.net/archives/2005/11/penuche.php| archivedate= 8 March 2009 | deadurl= yes | accessdate= 15 May 2015}} 5. ^{{cite web |url=http://southernfood.about.com/od/nobakecookies/r/blbb600.htm |title=About.com Southern Food: No bake Penuche Cookies |accessdate=2007-09-13}} 6. ^{{cite web|url= http://foodieprints.com/2008/02/the-many-languages-of-sucre-a-la-creme/ |title= The many languages of sucre à la crème| website= FoodiePrints.com |date= 8 February 2008 |accessdate= 20 March 2013}} 7. ^{{cite book| last= Webb| first= Andrew| title= Food Brittania| publisher= Random House| date= 31 August 2012| page= 189|others= via Google Books |accessdate= 20 March 2013}}
