Ingredients
-
2
cups pecans, peeled and halved
-
1
cup Brazil nuts, peeled and coarsely chopped
-
1
cup almonds, peeled and coarsely chopped
-
1/3
cup honey
-
4
tablespoons olive oil, preferably organic extra-virgin
Directions
- In a stainless steel skillet, heat a tablespoon of olive oil over moderate heat for a minute.
- Add the nuts and honey in single layers, stirring constantly, and replacing each layer with a new one when done until the store of nuts is exhausted. The honey-nut mixture should be removed from the pan when the nuts stick to each other, and placed on a sheet of silver foil.
- Break the layers into uneven wedges of almost uniform size, approximately 1.5-in. squares.
