This is posted for the World Tour 2005 RecipeZaar event. I haven't tried it yet, but it's so quick and easy, has readily available ingredients, and looks so good, I might just make it before the day is out! The recipe comes from the Hadassah Jewish Holiday Cookbook - a collection of traditional recipes from contemporary kosher kitchen. It was listed in the Passover section.

SERVES 8 , 2 cups (change servings and units)

Ingredients

Directions

  1. 1
    Butter a large cookie sheet (one that has sides).
  2. 2
    Using a 2 quart glass baking dish, pour orange juice into sugar, and mix well. Stir in pecans. Cover with plastic wrap, but leave a corner open to vent.
  3. 3
    Microwave on medium for 6 minutes. Stir and continue to cook on medium for about 4 - 6 more minutes until the syrup crystallizes (check after 4 minutes, and then each minute thereafter).
  4. 4
    As soon as it's crystallized, spread glazed nuts on the buttered cookie sheet evenly, separating the nuts. Let it cool completely.

    This was very good, though a bit sticky. I will definitely add more nuts/make less sauce next time I make it (there will be a next time!) When sharing it with a friend, she remarked that they tasted like something that you would have in a tart.

    Very sweet.I microwaved for 15 minutes and it came to a soft sugar stage. I`m would add 1 more cup of nuts because it is sweet and theres plenty of glaze to coat 3 cups. The orange flavor really didn`t come through. I suggest adding the zest of an orange to kick it up some. This would be great on anything from your favorite ice cream to a large healthy salad!
