Zubereitung von Spiced Pecans Or Walnuts
- In a medium saucepan over medium heat, combine granulated sugar, salt, ground cinnamon, ground nutmeg, ground cloves, and water. Stir constantly until the sugar is completely dissolved.
- Continue cooking the syrup, **without stirring**, until it reaches 238°F (114°C) on a candy thermometer. Alternatively, test for a soft-ball stage by dropping a small amount of syrup into a glass of ice water; it should form a soft ball that flattens slightly when removed.
- Carefully remove the saucepan from the heat. Add the pecans or walnuts, stirring gently but thoroughly until the nuts are evenly coated and the mixture becomes creamy and glossy.
- Line a baking sheet with waxed paper. Immediately pour the nut mixture onto the prepared baking sheet and use a fork to separate the nuts, ensuring they are not clumped together.
- **Caution:** The nuts will be extremely hot! Allow them to cool completely on the baking sheet before storing.
- Once cool and dry, store your spiced pecans or walnuts in an airtight container at room temperature. They will stay fresh for several weeks, if they last that long!
