First, these nuts are truly special and unique and scrumptious. Be sure to use FRESH rosemary! I do resent people grading a recipe based on the perception that someone else did this first. Before Ina Garten included this recipe in her Barfoot in Paris cookbook around 2004, the Union Square Cookbook published the recipe in 1994. Regardless of who did this first, these are wonderful snacks. Please reserve ratings for the recipe and not who published it first!

These sweet and spicy nuts are FANTASTIC no matter if using Ina's recipe or Nigella's, (both the same. Giadda also recommended these nuts recently for the food network show: "The Best Thing I Ever Ate." All 3 chefs got this recipe from THE UNION SQUARE CAFE and I am so thankful they shared it! *The key here is definitely FRESH rosemary, NOT ground! These nuts also make a great gift.

OMG, who knew simple nuts could be this good! Good, fresh rosemary makes these absolutely addictive. Although I've used these as a great holiday gift, I think these nuts are perfect for a hot summer afternoon or evening. With a cold beer, lemonade or iced tea, these nuts are the perfect accompaniment to a baseball game or bbq.

I was looking for something to give to friends that was quick and easy and this fit the bill. Male friends loved them, returning the empty tin with a pleading look. I made a much larger quantity than the recipe and it worked well. Plan to make more tonight - so good!

This is the same recipe Ina did years ago and you can find in her Paris cook book. It is great but I kind of resent the Food Channel letting two chefs do the exact same thing. Ina even credits the same restaurant. I mean, come on!

I really wanted to like these. They did not have good flavor and stuck together in a weird way. I'll keep to my old way of making hot nuts: melt some butter in a pan on the stove, add nuts to warm and toast (almonds and cashews are a good mix, then add salt, cayenne, and a garlic pepper blend. They'll do you right every time.

This recipe is wonderful. Everyone loves them and I keep having to make another batch. The flavors are great together, it's easy to make and a pretty healthy snack.

This is the best bar nut recipe- I added a little black sesame seeds as well as some dried pineapple & papaya. It adds the sweet to the spicy nuts. Also adds great texture & color- careful- hard to stop eating...........
