Glazed Pecans

1 egg white
1 T water
1 lb. pecans
3/4 C sugar
1 1/2 t. table (not kosher) salt

For cinnamon pecans: 1 t. cinnamon

Experimented with otherly-spiced pecans for Feb. Added 3/4 t. chili powder, 1/4 t. cayenne, 1/4 t. smoked paprika and about 1/8 t. each of cinnamon, cloves, ginger, coriander, cumin, pepper and garlic powder.  IMO still too sweet to go on a salad, but that's a starting point....

Whip egg white until very firm.  Pour in nuts.  Sprinkle with water.  Fold all together so that pecans are coated.  Pour sugar/salt/spice mixture over.  Fold just until sugar is distributed.  Spread in single layer on a rimmed baking sheet.  Bake 300 for about 30 minutes.  Stir and rearrange every ten minutes or so.  Sometimes hard to tell when they're getting too dark.  Take them out what looks like a little "early."  Cool, break apart.  Let cool completely before storing.
