How to roast nuts?
Cooking idea, cooking tips July 29th, 2009Have you ever has this experiences?:
- Your cashew nuts, almonds and macadamia nuts never turn out right?
- Your nuts just don’t turn right on whether you use a conventional oven or microwave oven?
- Some always get burnt?
- You have tried washing the nuts with salt water before roasting, adding salt after roasting, and even frying them in a nonstick wok, but still don’t work?
- And you know you can’t go on failing as these nuts are so expensive?
Here is the solution:
- Preheat oven to 190°C.
- Spread the nuts in a single layer in a shallow pan and then roast them for 10-15 minutes, depending on their size. Shake and turn them a couple of times during roasting. Nuts burn very easily as they contain a lot of oil, so watch them carefully. Alternatively, you can pan roast them in a dry wok over low heat until golden brown. You can
also use a microwave:Â spread the nuts out on a plate; cook for 4-5 minutes, stirring two or three times during cooking to roast evenly.
