CANDIED MACADAMIA NUTS

Steps:

• In a clean, dry castiron skillet on medium heat lightly toast the nuts for about 3 minutes.
• Add the sugar; mix well.
• The sugar will start to melt as it comes to temperature.
• At this point you want to watch the skillet carefully so that the sugar doesn't burn. Reduce heat if necessary. Should the sugar burn, you must start over.
• NOTE: If the skillet starts to smoke, remove pan quickly and reduce heat.
• Continue cooking until the sugar is entirely melted and the nuts are coated, about 2 minutes. This is a messy recipe but worth the hassle.
• Remove promptly from the stove and place the nuts on parchment paper, spreading out as best as possible. Cool.
• Much of the candied nuts will stick together like candy brittle but will easily break apart once cooled.
• Store in airtight container and refrigertate any leftovers.
• (These are highly addicting and usually only half of the nuts end up in a salad because I eat most of them beforehand.).
