Zubereitung von Spiced Candied Nuts
- In a medium saucepan, combine 1 cup granulated sugar, 1/4 teaspoon salt, 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon, and 1/2 cup milk.
- Cook over medium-low heat, stirring constantly, until the sugar dissolves completely and the mixture reaches the soft-ball stage (235-240°F on a candy thermometer). This will take about 10-15 minutes. Be patient and stir frequently to prevent burning.
- Remove the saucepan from the heat immediately.
- Stir in 1 teaspoon vanilla extract and 3 cups of your favorite nuts (pecans, walnuts, almonds, etc.).
- Continue to stir gently until the sugar coating loses its glossy sheen and becomes creamy and slightly opaque. This takes about 5-7 minutes.
- Line a baking sheet with wax paper.
- Carefully pour the candied nuts onto the prepared baking sheet.
- Using two forks, gently separate the nuts to prevent sticking. Be cautious as the mixture will be hot.
- Allow the candied nuts to cool completely to room temperature before storing in an airtight container. This helps prevent them from becoming sticky.
