Curried Pecans image

An excellent snack for most any occasion--holidays, camping, sporting event get togethers, lunchboxes, etc. We can't stop eating them! These make a great gift, just cut a piece of cellophane and wrap into a cone shape tied with a colorful ribbon, or place in a pretty tin. They will be appreciated.

Time 1h30m

Yield 1 pound

Number Of Ingredients 7

1 lb pecans, whole
1 egg white
1 tablespoon water
2 tablespoons sugar
2 teaspoons orange rind, finely grated
1 teaspoon seasoning salt (such as Lawry's)
1 teaspoon mild curry powder (sometimes I use 1/2 hot- 1/2 mild for a little more kick)

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 250°F.
  • In a medium bowl, mix egg white with water until a bit frothy.
  • Stir in the pecans and mix until pecans are well coated with egg white mixture.
  • Combine sugar, orange rind, seasoned salt and curry powder in a Ziploc bag.
  • Remove pecans from egg white bowl,and add to the bag. Discard any remaining egg white mixture.
  • Seal up the bag and shake vigorously to coat pecans with spices.
  • Spread nuts onto two baking sheets and place in oven. I line mine with parchment paper.
  • Bake pecans for 20 minutes, then remove from oven and stir and spread out on pan again.
  • Turn off oven, place pecans back in the oven, and crack oven door. Let them remain there for 45 minutes to 1 hour, or until they are crisp.
  • Enjoy!
