Directions
Sweet and Spicy Pecans, This recipe was given to me years ago by a good friend. They are so quick to make and while there are similar recipes out there, the vinegar gives it a special tang that makes them unique and has everyone begging for the recipe., These nuts are awesome. I forgot to add the salt and they were still really good. They were tangy and spicy but not too spicy which suprised me. A definite make-again recipe., Made these a couple of times now, and I must say that they are DELICIOUS! used a hugarian paprika that we get from a local goulash restaurant, and baked the pecans at 350′ for five minutes instead of 375′ this was because the other recipe I was making called for a 350′ oven Cooking them slightly lower seems to have yeilded a nice pecan-caramalized, spicy, sweet, and just a little tender even after cooling. Last night I made these in a craving, but discovered part way through that I had only half of the cider vinegar needed. It was suggested that use some of the cheap sake we had around the house, and so I did. Turned out good, but definitely is better with full cider. Thanks for posting! ~~Luna
