Hi,
I made these spicy almonds tonight – in two big batches. I found it difficult to get them dry and crisp. After the suggested 45 minutes at 250F they were very sticky from the melted sugar, and not crisp when cool. So I gave them an extra 15-20 minutes at around 275F (fan oven) and that did the trick. Now I hope they don’t end up sticking together in the jars where I put them after cooling.
Great taste!

I am planning to make these for a cocktail party I have coming up. Seems like they will go great with Bourbon or Whiskey based drinks.

Those spicy cocktail nuts look so delicious. Though I am feeling a bit nutty right now, I will fight the urge to head to the kitchen and get some much needed soup. I can always tackle Emeril’s recipe after the sun rises.

1. this is my comment, that means I am entered, thanks!
2. You should be very (did I say very? I meant it) proud of your hard work and creativity!
3. I appreciate your sense of spirit in the whole food buzz thing, you brought something very special.
4. I am out of stuff, only cause we have never had coffee to get caught up, and know each other better
5. None of the above 2-4 should be misconstrued as bribery statements (really!), I have followed you for sometime now and enjoy your blog.
