By Rhonda Parkinson, About.com

Five-spice powder adds a kick to this easy recipe for spiced nuts made with walnut halves.

Ingredients:

  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 2 teaspoons five-spice powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1 large egg white
  • 4 teaspoons orange juice
  • 12 ounces walnut halves

Preparation:

Preheat oven to 250 degrees Fahrenheit (approximately 120 degrees Celsius). Spray a 9 X 13 inch baking sheet with non-stick cooking spray.

In medium bowl, stir together sugar, five-spice powder, and salt. In another medium bowl, beat the egg white and orange juice with a wire whisk until frothy.

Slowly stir sugar into the egg white mixture, about 2 tablespoons at a time. Fold in the walnuts, stirring to mix thoroughly in the sugar mixture.

Spread the walnuts onto the baking sheet. Bake for 30 minutes, stirring occasionally. Cool thoroughly.
