Great snack and emergency stash for company! Will probably use less butter next time. I used both seasoned salt and sea salt, and both worked fine.

I made this exactly as written, but I should mention that I opted for the margarine instead of butter, and the dried cranberries were organic, if it matters. (I hope others aren't making the mistake of using *sweetened* dried cranberries; unsweetened ones are a little hard to find, but I got them.) I wasn't too impressed with this; it was a good thing to snack on, but it didn't wow me. However, The Woman I Love wants to give this a 5-star rating. In fact, I made two more batches just for her to snack on for a couple of weeks.

These roasted pecans are the perfect foil to all those sweet holiday treats. Savory and nutty. These were gobbled up and raved about. Easy to make.

Sounded good but I feel it is lacking flavor, needs more spice. Would not recommend or make again.

I thought this was great! I great way to use up all the pecans we get here in Texas! P.S. I think someone should only leave a posting if they have used the ingredients in this recipe, it's not fair to the poster. Changing the nut type can make a huge difference because nuts do not all taste the same.

I used walnuts instead of pecans because of their health benefits but first I blanched them for a minute to help remove some of the tannin (a trick I learned from Michael Chiarello). Maybe it was the walnuts but I was very unimpressed w/ this recipe. The cranberries were a nice touch but I think I will just add them to another spiced nuts recipe....sorry. Thansk for letting me try it though.
