Candied Almonds, Cashews and Pecans

By A_Liebmann

Addicting mixed nut mix

Ingredients

• 1 cup mixed cashews and pecans
• 1 T. brown sugar
• 1 T butter.
• 1/2 tsp. Tabasco
• 2-3 sprigs rosemary (optional)
• Sea salt

Preparation

Step 1

To candy the nuts, sauté raw unsalted nuts of your choice with brown sugar, butter and a small sprinkling of salt. When they get nice and brown, remove from heat and add Tabasco. Maybe some green? – chopped rosemary or parsley work well. To cool, spread out a plate in the thinnest layer you can so they won’t be a sticky blob. Cool (and store) via a quick blast in the freezer, and break apart before serving. These can be made days, or even weeks!, in advance and stored in an airtight container in the freezer.
