Life Style: Spicy Rum and Rosemary Mixed Nuts are a perfect blend of sweet, salty, spicy and smoky flavors. Eat them for breakfast, top your salads or give them as housewarming or hostess gifts. They’re always a big hit! If you don’t like extremely tasty, sweet or salty snacks then don’t make these. If you don’t like your tongue tingling then leave now. Cover your eyes if you can’t stand the smoke.
Material
3 cups walnut halves
2 cups cashews
2 cups pecans
2 cups whole almonds
1 cup brown sugar
½ cup dark rum
3 rosemary sprigs
2 teaspoons sea salt
2 teaspoons chili powder
1 teaspoon chili flakes, optional
Method
* Preheat your oven to 300 degrees. Line 2 sided baking sheets with parchment paper.
*Combine walnuts, cashews, pecans and almonds in a large bowl.
*You will need enough room to mix them, so divide the nuts between 2 bowls if you don’t have a bowl big enough.
*Bring brown sugar, dark rum, rosemary sprigs, sea salt, chili powder, and optional chili flakes, if using, to a boil in a pan over medium-high heat. Remove the pan from the heat and let the syrup mixture sit for 15 minutes.
* Once the syrup dissolves for 15 minutes, remove the henna sprigs and bring it to a boil. Let it boil for 2 minutes, or until it starts to thicken.
* Pour it over dry fruits; If you are using two bowls, divide the syrup between them.
* Toss the nuts well and then place them on a baking sheet.
*Put the pan in the oven and bake them for 25-30 minutes, or until they are golden brown and very fragrant. Stir the nuts halfway through baking.
