List of Ingredients




8 tablespoons unsalted butter
1 1/2 cups brown sugar, packed
1/2 teaspoon cayenne pepper
1 1/2 teaspoons ground cumin
1 egg white
1/2 pound shelled pecan halves


Preheat the oven to 330 degrees.

Melt the butter in a large skillet. Add the sugar and spices, remove from the heat and stir to dissolve. Let cool, then stir in the egg white. Pour the mixture over the pecans in a large bowl, then stir and toss until they are evenly coated.

Transfer the pecans to a baking sheet and spread them in a single layer. Toast in the preheated oven, shaking and tossing 2 to 3 times during cooking, until the pecans are golden brown, about 20 minutes altogether. Transfer the nuts to a bowl to dry. When the pecans are cool enough to handle, rub them between your hands to evenly distribute the sugar coating and avoid clumping. Cool completely. Serve as a snack or with cocktails.

Makes 1/2 pound.
