This turned out well for me. I did add a couple of drops of Vanilla (it IS a Southern thing. I also set the heavy duty pan in an inch of cool water to stop the cooking as soon as I took it off the stove. Then I worked quickly to spoon them out; however, while the first half of the batch were beautiful and glossy, the last few were more grainy and rough in appearance. Next time, I'll forego the cool water dip to see if that helps. If anyone else has had the change in appearance occur, I would certainly appreciate feedback. This was my first attempt at candy making. Overall, it was an easy recipe to follow and the product taste DELICIOUS!

I live in the South and these pralines taste better than any I have tasted here. Lemme say, that's saying ALOT! If you just follow the directions, you have a winner! I did add 1 tsp vanilla because it's a grandma type thing, lol! I couldn't wait to try and I WAS NOT disappointed. Thank you Emeril!

Just the recipe I'd been searching for. Had them cooling when my husband walked in the door. What a great surprise for him! He was impressed! Not at all difficult if you use a thermometer and really a quick fix. Wouldn't change a thing, unless to double the recipe.

Delicious and authentic! I too added a pinch of salt. The reason this recipe is considered difficult is that you must be very patient and stir constantly to get the pralines right. I know a lot of recipes SAY to stir constantly, but this recipe means it. The mixture will boil rapidly for quite a while (15 minutes or so while you temp it over and over until it reaches 238. I added refrigerated pecans and the candy cooled too quickly. I was able to add water and reheat it to the proper consistency, which was surprising.

These are so delicious. I sprinkled a tiny bit of sea salt on top and they were perfect.
I doubled the recipe! Make them, you will be hooked
