LAVENDER AND ROSEMARY SPICED WALNUTS
Lavender and Rosemary Spiced Walnuts are great sprinkled in salads, as cake or cookie decorations, or served as a healthy appetizer or snack. Would make a delightful hostess gift, presented in a tin and tied with a pretty lavender ribbon. From Sharon Shipley's Lavender Cookbook.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
- Butter a baking pan and spread the walnuts. Bake for 5 minutes, stirring once, until lightly browned and fragrant. Set aside.
- In medium saucepan, combine the sugar, water, cinnamon, and salt. Over medium heat, boil without stirring until the mixture reads 238 degrees F (soft ball stage) on a candy thermometer. The sugar syrup is very hot, so take caution.
- Remove from the heat and stir in the lavender, rosemary, and walnuts. Work quickly and stir gently until all of the nuts are coated.
- Transfer the nuts to the buttered baking sheet and spread them in an even layer, separating them with two buttered forks.
- Cool. Stir in an airtight container at room temperature or in a heavy plastic bag in the freezer.
- *By crushing the lavender with a mortar and pestle instead of a spice grinder, you can release the essential oils and still keep the buds partially intact. This gives the nuts more visual appeal, because you can see the bits of lavender florets in the sugar coating.

Steps:
- In a large, heavy-bottomed skillet, heat about 1-inch of oil to 350 degrees F.
- Bring a large pot of water to a boil. Add walnuts and blanch for 30 seconds. Drain and transfer nuts to a medium bowl. While nuts are still hot and slightly wet, add confectioners' sugar and toss to coat nuts. Stir and toss until all the sugar has melted into the nuts; if bits of un-melted sugar remain on the nuts, they will not fry properly.
- Stir the nuts again before frying. Using a large slotted spoon, transfer a few nuts to the hot oil, allowing the foam to subside before adding another spoonful. (Otherwise, the oil could foam over and burn you.) Fry in small batches until the nuts are medium brown, about 45 seconds; be careful not to overcook. Scatter on an unlined baking sheet to cool slightly.
- In a small bowl, stir together cayenne, cinnamon, a pinch of salt, and pepper.
- While the nuts are still warm, transfer them to a bowl and sprinkle evenly with about half of the spice mix. Toss well to distribute the spices and then taste a nut. Add more spice mix, to taste, and toss well after each addition. When cool, pack in an airtight jar. They will keep at room temperature for at least 2 weeks.
SPICED LAVENDER WALNUTS
The blooming season has ended for my lavender bushes but now I have dried lavender on hand and recipes ready to test! Try these nuts in salads, sandwiches, trail mix or serve as a part of a party tray. From The Lavender Cookbook by Sharon Shipley. Note: when I did "research" for this recipe online, someone mentioned that they spread the nuts on a wire rack to allow the excess sugar to drip off the nuts. Place something underneath the rack to catch the drippings-wax paper, paper grocery bag, etc. I did not try this trick as it was after the fact.

- In a medium-sized saucepan, combine the sugar, water, cinnamon and salt.
- (After testing this recipe the thought ran through my head of using half of a cinnamon stick. fyi).
- Over medium heat boil the mixture *without* stirring until it reaches 238 degrees (soft-ball stage) on a candy thermometer. Be careful with this step as the sugar syrup is very hot and will burn your skin!

SIMPLE SWEET AND SAVORY SPICED WALNUTS
These are really simple and use much less butter than some. They are mildly sweet and mildly spicy---those who love super spicy will have to add cayenne, etc. They are a lovely complement to a glass of sherry or a cheese board to be served with wine. They are a great addition to salads and can be chopped and included in any number of sweet and savory pastries.

- When the walnuts are coated, transfer them to the silpat or parchment.
- Spread them out with your wooden spatula and allow to cool.
- Store the cooled nuts in a tin or jar.
- Use in salads (butter lettuce, beets, blue cheese and these nuts--super!), or as a nibble with cocktails/apertifs.
SPICED WALNUTS
I pick my walnuts from a local tree, clean them and crack them myself-this recipe is worthy of my hard-won walnuts! The rich, buttery taste will fool you, as there's not a drop of butter in them. Not overly sweet, the nuts get nice and crispy from the egg bath. They work well as an appetizer and are an always-welcome hostess gift. They also freeze well, so you can enjoy them any time of year. -Sherri Starkin, Lyle, Washington
