I have two questions. If you put one cup of nuts into a microwave,
how come the finished yield will be two cups?

How do you prepare these nuts if you do not have a microwave?

Thank you.



SPICY MIXED NUTS, Recipe by Jean Carper


1 Egg white

2 Tbs Cold Water

1/3 cup Walnut Halves

1/3 cup Pecan Halves

1/3 cup Whole Almonds

½ cup Sugar

1 ½ tsp Cinnamon

1/4 tsp Ginger

1/4 tsp nutmeg

Beat egg white and water until frothy. Stir nuts into mixture to
coat, then drain in a colander for 3 to 4 minutes.

Mix sugar and spices in a plastic bag. Add nuts and shake to coat.
Spread nuts in a single layer on a microwave-safe plate. Microwave on
high for 1 ½ minutes, or until nut mixture is bubbly. Stir.
Microwave another 1 ½ minutes. Remove, stir to separate. Cool.
Store in a sealed container. Makes two cups.

In which case, it makes three cups.

And if you try to make it in a convection oven,
it blows the door open and comes streaming out
onto the kitchen floor. :-)
