Candied Cashews

Ingredients

2 cups roasted cashews 

1/2 cup sugar 

3/4 teaspoon ground coriander 

1 teaspoon ground cinnamon 

1/4 teaspoon ground allspice 

1/8 teaspoon cayenne 

1 teaspoon coarse salt 

Preparation

In a large stainless-steel skillet, combine cashews, sugar, and 1/4 cup water. Bring water to a boil over high heat. Lower heat and simmer, stirring frequently, until water evaporates and sugar crystallizes around nuts, about 5 minutes.

In a small bowl, combine coriander, cinnamon, allspice, cayenne, and coarse salt. Stir into nuts and continue cooking, stirring constantly, until sugar begins to melt and caramelize, 1-2 minutes.

Remove to a parchment-lined baking sheet and cool to room temperature before serving, about 5 minutes.
