These pecans aren't too hot, but you can leave out the red pepper if you like them milder, or increase it to taste. These make a great snack or appetizer for the holidays, or anytime.

VILLAGE WHISKEY'S SPICY PECANS

Named for Chef Jose Garces' newest Philadelphia venture, these pecans are lovely with a drink. Use the hot sauce of your choice--I like Crystal or Sriracha--and make it as hot as you like--I prefer just a hint of a burn. Time does not include cooling time.
