Deviled Pecans Neiman Marcus - cooking recipe

Ingredients

1 tablespoon kosher salt
2 teaspoons celery salt
1 teaspoon garlic salt
1/4 teaspoon cayenne powder
2 tablespoons vegetable oil
1 1 lb walnuts or 1 lb almonds

Preparation

Mix the salt, celery salt, garlic salt and cayenne together in a bowl and set aside.
Heat the oil in a heavy-bottomed saucepan over medium heat.
When the oil is hot, add the nuts and cook for about 2 minutes, or until they begin to brown; it is important to keep shaking the pan while the nuts are cooking to avoid burning them.
Drain the nuts on paper towels.
Transfer the nuts to a bowl while still hot and sprinkle with the salt mixture.
Mix thoroughly until the nuts are evenly coated.
Let cool to room temperature.
Makes about 4 cups.
