HELPFUL TIPS FOR MAKING SMOKY SPICY ROASTED ALMONDS

 

·         Buy good quality raw almonds.  We buy ours from Costco and the price is really good.

·         Use good old butter!  Unsalted or salted will do the trick.

·         Do not crowd the cookie sheet so there is space for the heat to roast the almonds.

·         Flip the almonds several times to they cook more evenly and roast on both sides.

·         Season to taste!!  If you like things with a lot of heat add more cayenne or a shot of hot sauce.  If you like things more mild than cut back on the cayenne.

·          The nuts will stay good up to about ten days stored in an airtight container.
