    Sweet and Spicy Candied Walnuts


    Source of Recipe


    Internet

    List of Ingredients




    1 large egg white
    1/4 cup sugar
    1/2 teaspoon salt
    1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
    1/4 teaspoon ground ginger
    1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
    1/4 teaspoon ground cloves
    12 ounces (about 3 1/2 cups) walnuts, preferably walnut halves

    Recipe



    Preheat the oven to 300 degrees.

    In a medium bowl, whisk the egg white, sugar and salt until the mix is very
    foamy. Whisk in the cinnamon, ginger, nutmeg and cloves. Add the walnuts
    and stir to coat.

    Spread the nuts on an ungreased baking sheet. Bake for 10 minutes. Stir and
    separate any walnuts that are sticking together. Bake for another 10
    minutes. Stir and continue baking until the coating is dry and walnuts are
    crisp, 5 to 10 minutes. Cool completely.

    Makes about 3 1/2 cups; analysis per 1/4 cup.

    Cook's note: Substitute the grated zest of 1 orange, 1 teaspoon crumbled
    dried rosemary or 1 tablespoon finely chopped fresh rosemary and 1 teaspoon
    coarsely cracked black pepper for the cinnamon, ginger, nutmeg and cloves.
    If desired, substitute pecans for the walnuts.
