Toasted Pecans

Recorded January 17, 2011
1/2 c pecan halves
1 t vegetable oil
1/2 t sugar (in shaker)
pinch of salt
Spread the nuts in a small nonstick skillet in a single layer; add the oil. Heat over medium heat, shaking often, until aromatic and light tan in color, about 6 minutes. Sprinkle with sugar and salt, and heat with shaking until the nuts are glazed. Take care not to burn. Turn out on a plate and let cool thoroughly. Good for snacking as is, or sliver them and add to pancakes and waffles or sprinkle on fried fish or salads as a garnish. Adds crunch, flavor, and nourishment.
