Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350*.
• Place walnuts in a 15 1/2" x 10 1/2" jelly roll pan.
• Toast walnuts in oven 20 minutes, stirring occasionally.
• Meanwhile, in a small bowl, mix sugar, vegetable oil, Worcestershire sauce, ground red pepper, and salt.
• Remove walnuts from oven, drizzle spice mixture over the nuts and toss until thoroughly coated.
• Spread nuts in a single layer, cool completely in a pan on a wire rack.
• Store at room temperature in tightly covered container up to a month.
• Makes about 2 cups.

Steps:

• In a large, heavy-bottomed skillet, heat about 1-inch of oil to 350 degrees F.
• Bring a large pot of water to a boil. Add walnuts and blanch for 30 seconds. Drain and transfer nuts to a medium bowl. While nuts are still hot and slightly wet, add confectioners' sugar and toss to coat nuts. Stir and toss until all the sugar has melted into the nuts; if bits of un-melted sugar remain on the nuts, they will not fry properly.
• Stir the nuts again before frying. Using a large slotted spoon, transfer a few nuts to the hot oil, allowing the foam to subside before adding another spoonful. (Otherwise, the oil could foam over and burn you.) Fry in small batches until the nuts are medium brown, about 45 seconds; be careful not to overcook. Scatter on an unlined baking sheet to cool slightly.
• In a small bowl, stir together cayenne, cinnamon, a pinch of salt, and pepper.
• While the nuts are still warm, transfer them to a bowl and sprinkle evenly with about half of the spice mix. Toss well to distribute the spices and then taste a nut. Add more spice mix, to taste, and toss well after each addition. When cool, pack in an airtight jar. They will keep at room temperature for at least 2 weeks.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350°F. Line a baking sheet with a piece of parchment paper and set aside. Combine the cashews, walnuts, almonds and pepitas in a large bowl and toss to combine. Whisk together the egg white, water, sugar, salt, cayenne and chipotle pepper and cinnamon. Drizzle mixture over the nuts and toss to combine, making sure they are evenly coated. Transfer nuts to prepared baking sheet and spread in an even layer. Roast in oven for 30 minutes, stirring occasionally. Remove from oven; separate the nuts as they cool. Once they are completely cooled, transfer to an airtight container.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 275. Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper.
• Whisk the egg white with 1 tablespoon water in a large bowl until frothy. In a small bowl, combine the sugar, 1 1/2 teaspoons salt, the spice blend and cayenne pepper. Toss the nuts in the egg white mixture, then stir in the sugar-spice mixture and Worcestershire sauce.
• Spoon the nuts onto the prepared baking sheet in small clusters and bake until golden, 30 to 35 minutes. Cool completely, then break into pieces.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 325 degrees F. Combine nuts and seeds in a medium-sized bowl. Add the maple syrup and spices and salt and toss to combine. Spray a baking sheet with cooking spray, then transfer coated nuts to baking sheet and spread evenly in 1 layer. Bake 15 to 20 minutes, stirring once, until nuts are fragrant and lightly toasted.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
• Spread the nuts out on a large baking sheet. Bake until the nuts are lightly toasted, about 8 to 10 minutes.
• In the meantime, melt the butter in a small saucepan over low heat. Add the remaining ingredients and stir to combine. Transfer the nuts to a serving bowl. Pour in the butter and toss to coat evenly. Serve warm or room temperature.

Steps:

• Combine the oil through the cayenne in a skillet.

• Bake 20 min., stirring after 10 min. Immediately stir in salt. Cool completely. Store in airtight container at room temperature.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350°F. In a large heavy saucepan melt the butter with the five-spice powder, the cayenne, the thyme, and salt to taste, stirring, add the walnuts, and toss them to coat them well. Bake the walnuts in batches in a shallow baking pan in the middle of the oven for 10 minutes and let them cool until they are warm.

Steps:

• Preheat the over to 300°F.
• Combine all ingredients but walnuts in a saucepan and simmer over low heat for 2-3 minutes. Put the walnuts in a large bowl, pour on the glaze, and toss to coat.
• Line a rimmed baking sheet with foil and spread the walnuts in a single layer. Bake 30-40 minutes, stirring and scooping up the glaze to cover the walnuts at least every 10 minutes.
