Spiced Candied Cashews
One of my new favorite Food Network Chef’s is Clare Robinson, I love that everything she makes uses 5 ingredients or less and is usually pretty easy as well. This has 7 ingredients, but who’s counting…
Spiced Candied Cashews
INGREDIENTS:
- 2 cups raw cashews-or a 9 ounce can
- 1 cup sugar
- 1 1/2 cups water
- 1 teaspoon kosher salt
- 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1/2 teaspoon ground ginger
- 1/4 teaspoon ground cardamom
DIRECTIONS:
Line a baking sheet with a Silpat sheet. Put the nuts, sugar, water, and salt into a large skillet over high heat. Bring the mixture to a boil, stirring frequently, and cook until the water is nearly evaporated and the liquid becomes syrupy, about 10 minutes. Meanwhile, mix the spices together in a small bowl. After 10 minutes, sprinkle the spices over the nuts and stir well. Continue stirring constantly while the water evaporates completely, about 5 minutes. When there is no longer any sugar syrup left in the bottom of the pan, turn off the heat and stir the nuts vigorously but carefully in the pan until the sugar seizes up and the nuts are evenly coated with crystallized sugar. Turn the nuts out onto the Silpat sheet and spread evenly. Cool completely before sifting the excess sugar from the nuts and storing in an airtight container.
