These spiced nuts can be prepared with pantry ingredients in a flash. The nuts are roasted then tossed in a totally addictive salty-sweet coating made from Demerara sugar and coarse kosher salt. Ingredients:
1/4 cup demerara sugar (granulated can be substituted) |
1 teaspoon coarse kosher salt |
3 tablespoons honey |
3/4 teaspoon fresh ground black pepper |
1/2 teaspoon ground cumin |
1/2 teaspoon ground coriander |
1/2 teaspoon smoked paprika |
1 pinch ground cayenne pepper |
1 lb mixed raw nuts (combination of unroasted cashews, whole unblanched almonds, pecan halves, pistachios, hazelnuts, any) |
Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 350-deg. F. Line a rimmed sheet pan with parchment paper and set aside.
2. In a large bowl, combine sugar and salt and set aside.
3. Combine honey, black pepper, cumin, coriander, paprika and cayenne in a bowl and mix well. Add mixed nuts and stir to thoroughly coat. Spread nut mixture evenly in a single layer on prepared sheet pan and bake until toasted and fragrant, about 10 to 11 minutes.
4. Remove from oven and let cool until barely warm, then transfer to sugar mixture and toss to evenly coat. Return to sheet pan and cool completely. Transfer to airtight container or divide nuts into two portions and package for gift giving. Nuts will keep 5 days at room temperature, tightly sealed.
