SIMPLE SWEET AND SAVORY SPICED WALNUTS
These are really simple and use much less butter than some. They are mildly sweet and mildly spicy---those who love super spicy will have to add cayenne, etc. They are a lovely complement to a glass of sherry or a cheese board to be served with wine. They are a great addition to salads and can be chopped and included in any number of sweet and savory pastries.

Steps:
- Have ready a silpat on a sheet pan or a parchment lined pan on a surface which can withstand heat.
- Mash the garlic with the brown sugar and spices to form a paste.
- Melt the butter in a non stick skillet over medium heat.
- Add the sugar/spice paste to the skillet and, using a wooden spoon or spatula, stir to combine the butter and paste (about a minute or two).
- Once it is roughly combined, add the walnuts and stir to coat; this will take no more than a minute or two.
- When the walnuts are coated, transfer them to the silpat or parchment.
- Spread them out with your wooden spatula and allow to cool.
- Store the cooled nuts in a tin or jar.
- Use in salads (butter lettuce, beets, blue cheese and these nuts--super!), or as a nibble with cocktails/apertifs.
