Instructions
Preheat oven to 300 degrees F (150 degrees C).
Place the nuts on a large baking pan and bake in the preheated oven 10 to 12 minutes, taking care they do not burn.
Remove from heat and let cool approximately 5 minutes.
In a small bowl, mix the white sugar, brown sugar, salt, pepper, cumin, curry powder, cloves and cinnamon.
In a large saucepan over medium heat, place the nuts and approximately 1/2 the sugar mixture. When the mixture begins to melt, mix in the remaining mixture. Shake the pan until all the nuts are coated, about 5 minutes. Use a spoon to separate nuts that stick together.
Remove from heat and cool on a lightly greased baking sheet or wax paper. Separate the nuts to prevent sticking.
Recommended wine: Sparkling Wine, Sparkling Rose
Antipasti works really well with Sparkling Wine and Sparkling rosé. If you're serving a selection of appetizers, you can't go wrong with these. Both are very food friendly and complement a variety of flavors. The Masia de la Luz Cava Brut with a 4.9 out of 5 star rating seems like a good match. It costs about 12 dollars per bottle.
