INGREDIENTS

  • 1/4 cup sugar
  • 1 Tablespoon kosher salt
  • 2 Tablespoons coarsely ground black pepper
  • 1 c pecan halves

DIRECTIONS

1 c pecan halves


Combine the sugar, salt, and pepper.


Heat a very heavy skillet over high heat until hot enough to evaporate a drop of water on contact. Add the pecans and toss for a minute to bring the nut oil to the surface.


Sprinkle the nuts with half of the spice mixture and shake the pan vigorously until the sugar melts, about 1 minute. Add the remaining mixture and continue shaking the pan until the sugar melts again and coats the pecans.


Immediately turn the nuts out onto a baking sheet. When they are cool enough for you to handle, separate with your fingers. Let cool completely before storing in an airtight container.
