Glazed Nuts

Quoted message said:

I have many childhood memories of my mother creating these delightful
treats during the holidays and for special family gatherings. I had
several pounds of walnuts I purchased at the local Farmers Market this
past Saturday, so decided to have a nostalgic experience over the
flames of my stove this evening.

1/2 Cup Evaporated Milk
1 Teaspoon Vanilla
3 Cups Walnuts

Combine Sugar with Milk. Boil till soft ball stage. Add Vanilla,
stir in Walnuts. Stir till nuts are coated.

I have a couple glazed nut recipes and they call for soft crack stage;
does the coating on these ever get hard?

Yes, it gets hard. . .Not like peanut brittle hard, but pleasantly
hard. It is actually the consistency of the coating that I like so
much.

That's not glazed nuts. That's caramel with nuts... coat with
chocolate and you'll have walnut pralines.

My glazed nut recipes call for egg white, sugar and spices, and baking
in a slow oven.

After looking in 5 places where I was sure I'd find the recipe,
it was in the place I was sure I wouldn't. Note: This is better
made on a dry day, as is anything crisp. Vary spices to taste.

SPICED PECANS

1/2 c. granulated sugar
4 tsp cinnamon
1 1/2 tsp powdered ginger
3/4 tsp. nutmeg
1/2 tsp. ground cloves
1/2 tsp cayenne (optional)
1 tsp. salt
dash of cardamom
2 egg whites
5 cups pecan halves

Combine spices in small bowl. In a large bowl, beat egg whites till
frothy. Stir in pecans until well-coated. Sprinkle with sugar mixture,
tossing to coat.

Spread on 2 lightly greased baking sheets. (I also line them with
aluminum foil.)

Bake at 325 degrees (rotating sheets halfway through cooking) for 30
minutes or until the coating is crisp and nuts are fragrant.
Cool well before storing.

Thanks! It was worth the effort.
