NOTE:
These recipes work best in a small
(maximum 3 1/2 quart)
slow cooker.
CHINESE ALMONDS:
Use your slow cooker to make your own better than store bought version of tasty tamari roasted almonds.
2 cups unblanched almonds
1/4 tsp. freshly ground black pepper
2 Tbs. tamari or soy sauce
1 Tbsp. extra virgin olive oil
1 tsp. fine sea salt
1/2 tsp. granulated sugar
In slow cooker stoneware, combine almonds and black pepper. Cover and cook on HIGH for 1 1/2 hours, stirring every 30 minutes, until nuts are nicely toasted.
In a bowl, combine remaining ingredients. Add to hot almonds in slow cooker stoneware and stir thoroughly to combine. Spoon mixture into a small serving bowl and serve hot or allow to cool. Makes 2 cups.
BUTTERY PEANUTS:
Everyone loves these hot buttery peanuts. Use peanuts with skins on or buy them peeled, depending upon your preference. Both work well in this recipe.
2 cups raw peanuts
1/4 cup melted butter
2 tsp. fine sea salt
In slow cooker stoneware, combine peanuts and butter. Cover and cook on HIGH for 2 to 2 1/2 hours, stirring occasionally, until peanuts are nicely roasted. Drain on paper towels. Place in a bowl, sprinkle with salt and stir to combine.
Variation: Curried Butter Peanuts: In a small bowl, combine salt with 2 tsp. curry powder and pinch cayenne pepper. Sprinkle hot peanuts with this mixture instead of plain salt and stir to combine.
CURRIED ALMONDS:
If your taste buds are down in the dumps, grab their attention with a batch of these spicy nibblers. They are great with a long, cold beer.
2 cups unblanched almonds
1/4 tsp. freshly ground white pepper
2 Tbsp. melted butter
1 Tbsp. Worcestershire sauce
1 tsp. curry powder
1 tsp. fine sea salt
In slow cooker stoneware, combine almonds and white pepper. Cover and cook on HIGH for 1 1/2 hours, stirring every 30 minutes, until nuts are nicely toasted.
In a bowl, combine remaining ingredients. Add to hot almonds in slow cooker stoneware and stir thoroughly to combine. Spoon mixture into a small serving bowl and serve hot or allow to cool.
ORANGE SPICED PECANS:
If you like nuts with a sweet finish, try these delicious pecans. Don't expect leftovers, as they are very popular.
2 cups pecan halves
2 Tbsp. orange juice
1/4 cup granulated sugar
1 Tbsp. grated orange zest
1/2 tsp. ground cinnamon
1/4 tsp. freshly grated nutmeg
Pinch fine sea salt
In slow cooker stoneware, combine pecans and orange juice. Cover and cook on HIGH for 1 hour or until nuts release their aroma and are nicely toasted. Transfer to a serving bowl.
In a small bowl, combine sugar, orange zest, cinnamon, nutmeg and salt. Pour over hot nuts and toss to combine. Serve warm.
TIP: Nuts tend to burn easily because of their high fat content. Watch carefully once they start to release their aroma as they are close to being done.
