Tips:

  • Choose the right walnuts: For the best results, use fresh, plump walnuts. Avoid walnuts that are shriveled or have dark spots.
  • Toast the walnuts: Toasting the walnuts before glazing them will help to bring out their flavor and make them more crispy.
  • Use a heavy-bottomed saucepan: A heavy-bottomed saucepan will help to prevent the sugar from burning.
  • Cook the sugar mixture over medium heat: Cooking the sugar mixture over medium heat will help to prevent it from crystallizing.
  • Stir the sugar mixture constantly: Stirring the sugar mixture constantly will help to prevent it from burning.
  • Add the walnuts to the sugar mixture when it reaches 300 degrees Fahrenheit: This will help to ensure that the walnuts are coated in a thin layer of sugar.
  • Spread the walnuts out on a baking sheet to cool: This will help to prevent them from sticking together.
