• Toast walnuts BEFORE chopping them into smaller pieces.
• Place nuts in a single layer in an ungreased shallow pan or rimmed baking sheet such as a cookie sheet or jelly roll pan.
• (DO NOT use a baking sheet without sides or you may have nuts all over the oven if you accidentally tip the sheet when removing it from the oven.)
• Bake 5 to 10 minutes or until they are golden brown.
• A toasted walnut may look more GOLDEN than BROWN.
• They will continue to brown slightly after they're removed from the oven.
• Stir once or twice or shake the pan during toasting to aid in even browning.
• Remove from pan to cool.
• After toasting and walnuts have cooled, store any leftover toasted walnuts in the refrigerator in an airtight container for up to 1 to 2 weeks.
• Note:
• The first time you try toasting walnuts, it's better to err on the side of under-toasting than over-toasting.
• As walnuts toast, you'll notice a change in their fragrance as well as their color.
