Step-by-step Guide
Preparation
- Bring the water and sugar to a boil in a saucepan over medium heat. Once it starts boiling, let it boil for 1 minute, stirring occasionally to ensure the sugar dissolves completely.
- Soak the nuts in the syrup for 4 hours, making sure they are fully submerged to absorb maximum flavor.
- Drain them well and place them on parchment paper on a baking tray, distributing them evenly for uniform baking.
- Bake at 180°C for 8-10 minutes, checking regularly to ensure they do not over-toast. Remove them when they begin to lightly brown.
