[Food] How do you pronounce Nougat?

[Razzoo]

Following on from the great scone debate, my wife and I have been discussing the correct pronunciation of the chewy delight. Is it noogar or nugget? Come on NSC don't fail me. This matters.

When I was younger it was always known as Nugget but has fashionably become Noogar.

Quite right. Ooooh, nooogarrr, get him.

It must be a regional thing then,my wife is from Northern Ireland and in the Nugget camp. I pointed out its a French word and she said "I'm not French".

It's always been noogarr you are just late to the party having pronounced it wrong all your life

Not much, because I don’t like it [emoji23][emoji23][emoji23]

It was always ‘nuggit’ in deepest Devon, even though Nooooogarrrrrrrrr would’ve worked just as well.

 

[BensGrandad]

Always been noogar during my lifetime. A nugget is a small piece of gold.
