Toasting Nuts

Ingredients

Preparation

  1. Toasting not only crisps nuts; it also releases their essential oils, bringing out their fullest flavor. The easiest way to toast just about any kind is to place the nuts on a single layer on a baking pan, and place in a 350°F oven until they are golden and aromatic, 8 to 12 minutes. Shake the pan halfway through baking to make sure the nuts toast evenly.
