Tips:
- Use fresh pecans. Fresh pecans have a sweeter flavor and a more tender texture than stale pecans.
- Toast the pecans before candying them. Toasting the pecans brings out their flavor and makes them more crispy.
- Use a heavy saucepan. A heavy saucepan will help to evenly distribute the heat and prevent the pecans from burning.
- Stir the pecans constantly. Stirring the pecans constantly will help to prevent them from sticking together and burning.
- Use a candy thermometer. A candy thermometer will help you to ensure that the sugar syrup reaches the correct temperature.
- Let the pecans cool completely before storing them. This will help to prevent them from sticking together.
Conclusion:
Candied pecans are a delicious and versatile treat that can be enjoyed on their own, added to salads, or used as a topping for desserts. They are also a great gift idea for friends and family.
