This recipe is from Dorie Greenspan's best-selling cookbook Around My French Table. I followed the recipe exactly. I have to say I liked them, but didn't love them. Dorie suggests the recipe in the book should be considered a base recipe and you're encouraged to tweek it to your personal tastes. I'd add more salt next time. Then it would be a keeper recipe for me.
Next week: Spiced Butter-Glazed Carrots
Your nuts look terrific. We loved them at my house, but I think I added a little more salt than the recipe called for. I'd like to experiment with the spices on these.
ReplyDeleteGreat photos! I think there's definitely a lot of room for experimentation with this recipe.
ReplyDeleteSo pretty!! I am saving this one to take to our family gathering on Christmas Eve. Your photos are great.
ReplyDeleteThe nuts are your photos are beautiful! I will remember your tip about the salt...I will be making these later this week so appreciate your thoughts.
ReplyDeleteYour pictures make me want to make these. I always enjoy your site. You are a very talented photographer and I'm sure a cook as well. B:)
ReplyDeleteOoh! I love the idea of serving them in the little paper cups. Great idea!
ReplyDeletemmmm your nuts look divine! And you really spaced them out well on the cookie sheet. I must say I was a little more slap dash then that!
