Tips:
- Use fresh walnuts. Fresh walnuts have a better flavor and texture than older walnuts.
- Toast the walnuts before candying them. Toasting the walnuts brings out their flavor and makes them more crunchy.
- Use a candy thermometer to ensure the sugar syrup reaches the correct temperature. This will help to prevent the walnuts from crystallizing.
- Stir the walnuts constantly while they are candying. This will help to prevent them from sticking together.
- Spread the walnuts out on a parchment paper-lined baking sheet to cool. This will help to prevent them from sticking together.
- Store the candied walnuts in an airtight container at room temperature. They will keep for up to 2 weeks.
Conclusion:
Candied walnuts are a delicious and versatile snack that can be enjoyed on their own or used as a topping for desserts, salads, and yogurt. They are also a great gift idea for friends and family. With just a few simple ingredients and a little bit of time, you can easily make your own candied walnuts at home.
