cooking class    with Chef Jamie Gwen
Maple Roasted Pecans
These spiced nuts are irresistible any time of the year but especially ideal for holiday entertaining.
 

Yield: 3 cups

Ingredients:  
3 cups pecan halves
1/4 cup maple syrup
1/4 cup light corn syrup
1/4 cup granulated sugar
2 teaspoons kosher salt
2 teaspoons Chef Jamie's Brown Sugar & Cracked Pepper Spice Rub or your favorite seasoning

Directions:
  1. Preheat the oven to 350°F.
  2. Spread the pecans in an even layer on a baking sheet and bake them until lightly toasted, about 10 minutes.  Toss the nuts once during baking for even color.
  3. Combine the maple syrup and the corn syrup in a pot large enough to hold the nuts.  Bring the mixture to a simmer, then add the toasted pecans.
  4. Cook over low heat, stirring occasionally, until the nuts have absorbed most of the syrup, about 10 minutes. 
  5. In a large mixing bowl, combine the Chef Jamie's Brown Sugar & Cracked Pepper Spice Rub and the salt.  Add the nuts and toss to coat.
  6. Pour the nuts onto a baking sheet, lined with parchment paper or a silpat mat, to cool.  Store the nuts in an airtight container until ready to serve.
