Nuts for the Holidays?

Nutcracker dolls originate in the late-17th century Germany around the Ore Mountains region. The first nutcracker doll to have been created is believed to be a craftsman from Seiffen. They were often given as gifts, and at some point they became associated with the Christmas season. Nuts were used to decorate the Christmas tree and on the 12th day of Christmas the family would crack them open and enjoy them together.

Later in Germany, the Nutcracker became a guard in front of the house to keep it safe. Today, the tradition of cracking nuts at Christmastime has become common in many cultures.

How to make Sweet & Spicy Nut Party Mix Recipe

All that is needed is a pan and bowl for mixing with a spoon.

  • Preheat the oven at 275º degrees.

  • Mix the egg white with water in a large bowl until frothy.
  • In a small bowl, mix the sugar and spice.

Variations

I have mixed my nuts with pretzels which I love but sometimes I will just do one kind of nut instead of a mix. My favorite is cashew with this mix. 

Storage

When I store food, I tend to use a sealed glass container. It has stayed fresh for 3 months.
