Dessert / Main: Spiced Pecans

From Mary Carey (from Mercy Nicosia: Pat’s wife)

Ingredients
1 egg white, slightly beaten
2 ½ Tablespoons water
½-3/4 cup sugar
dash salt
1 teaspoon cinnamon
½ teaspoon cloves
¼ teaspoon allspice
¼ teaspoon nutmeg
4-5 cups pecan halves

Directions
Mix all ingredients except pecans. Fold in 4-5 cups pecans. Spread on greased cookie sheet. Bake at 250 degrees for 1 hour. Use a spatula to turn every 20 min. Nuts should be crispy, not wet looking. Give as gifts: put wax paper in a new tin and add the pecans!
