Slow-Roasted Georgia Pecans
This Southern recipe has been around for generations. The best part about roasting them slowly is
that they won't burn as easily. But still, watch them carefully as they cook, allowing them to turn
a deep, dark brown color.
Makes 1 pound, about 8 servings Preparation time: 5 minutes Cooking time: 1 hour
1 pound Georgia pecan halves 2 tablespoons unsalted butter, cut into pieces Salt to taste
Preheat oven to 250F. Pour pecans into a 9 by 13 inch baking dish and place on center rack in oven.
Roast, stirring occasionally, until they turn a deep brown color. (Don't let them overcook as they
will darken as they cool.) This takes about an hour. Remove pecans from oven and stir in pieces of
butter. Stir until butter melts, and return to oven if needed to get butter to melt. Add salt to
taste while pecans are still hot. Serve still slightly warm for best flavor, or let cool and package
in an airtight tin to store. Packaging tip: Don't gild the lily is a good rule of thumb here. Place
pecans in your best tin for safekeeping. Or, if you know the pecans will be gobbled up at once, tuck
into a pretty glass bowl, add a ribbon and you're set.
