Seasoned Walnuts

Posted byhelenspencerpantazisPosted inDressings and Sauces

I love these walnuts. In the fall, I like to cook up a big bag of walnuts and freeze them. Then I toss them into apple-craisin salads, or some such fall salad. I like to reheat in a skillet – but stay RIGHT THERE! They are easy to burn, at least for me.

Mom
  • 4 cups walnuts
  • 1/3 cup butter, melted
  • 2+ tablespoons fresh rosemary, chopped, or 1 tablespoon dried
  • 1/2 teaspoon cayenne pepper
  • 1 scant tablespoon salt

​Preheat oven to 325°F. Toss ingredients together. Place on a cookie sheet. Bake for 10-15 minutes or until golden or nicely browned, shaking or stirring every 5 minutes so they don’t burn. Cool, store in a jar or freezer bag to freeze if not needed within a week or so.
