Did you know a pinch of salt makes sweet nuts taste sweeter? Salt suppresses bitterness and enhances sweetness.
Here, a mix of walnuts and pecans are tossed with honey, chilli, ground coriander, ground ginger and ground cardamom then baked, resulting in the ultimate crunchy snack for the hosting season.
Method
Ingredients
- Step 1Preheat the oven to 200ºC/gas 6/180ºc fan. Heat the honey and oil in a small pan. Coarsely grind the coriander seeds, pink peppercorns and cardamom pods in a pestle and mortar then mix with the chilli flakes, ground coriander and ½ tsp flaky salt.
- Step 2Scatter the nuts on a tray with the spices, drizzle over the honey and oil mixture and stir well. Place the tray in the oven and toast for 20 minutes, stirring often. Leave to cool, then stir through the remaining salt and store in a jar.
