SPICED GLAZED NUTS AND PRETZEL MIX



Spiced Glazed Nuts and Pretzel Mix image

This is sweet and spicy and crunchy. Found on David Lebovitz site. Glazing the nuts with spices and adding a touch of sweetness, makes this the perfect nibble before dinner with an aperitif. I melt the butter in a large bowl, so I can do all the mixing in that bowl, making one less thing for me to wash as well. Note that the salt is added after the nuts are stirred, so it doesn't dissolve. And be sure to use coarse salt, which has an appealing, crunchy texture and more delicate flavor than ordinary table salt.

Categories     < 30 Mins

Time 25m

Yield 4 cups

Number Of Ingredients 8

4 cups assorted unsalted roasted mixed nuts
1/3 cup honey
1/3 cup light corn syrup
1/2 cup sugar
1 tablespoon salt
1 1/2 teaspoons ground cumin
1 1/2 teaspoons chili powder
1/2 teaspoon ground cayenne pepper

Steps:

  • Position a rack in the center of the oven and preheat the oven to 350.
  • Spread the nuts on a large rimmed baking sheet. Bake just until the nuts are warm to the touch, about 3 minutes. Remove baking sheet from oven. Drizzle nuts with honey and corn syrup, and mix well. Continue baking, stirring often with oiled spatula (I used Pam) until the liquid has evaporated into a glaze, about 10-12 minutes.
  • Mix the sugar, salt, cumin, chili powder and cayenne pepper in a large bowl. Add the nuts and mix well to coat them with the spiced sugar. Transfer to a clean baking sheet to cool, breaking up the nuts that may have stuck together. They will crisp as they cool.
  • Store in airtight container at room temp for up to one week.
