Ingredients

2 1/2 teaspoons coarse salt

1 teaspoon finely grated lime zest

2 tablespoons dark-brown sugar

1/2 teaspoon red-pepper flakes

1 large egg white

3 cups raw unsalted cashews

Preparation

Preheat oven to 350 degrees. In a medium bowl, using the back of a wooden spoon, grind salt with lime zest. Add dark-brown sugar, red-pepper flakes, and egg white and whisk together until frothy. Add cashews and toss to coat.

Spread cashew mixture in a single layer onto a parchment-lined rimmed baking sheet. Bake until golden, 20 minutes. Let cool completely.
