Plenty hot enough! Needed a recipe with little salt so put in the minimum. Tasty and the 'heat' grows on you. Will be passing on the recipe. Thanks!
very tasty!!! was quite tasty... i used only one spoon of chili powder as i wanted only a hint of spicy... no cayenne... also used 2 limes... otherwise quite nice flavor... plain almonds can be boring... i had a bag i bought on sale and wanted it to have some flavor... i personally think that 6 spoons of chili would have been inedible to my taste... if you want a lil kick use only 1 spoon...
Delicious We made these chili lime peanuts tonight and thought they were delicious. We ended up pretty much doubling the amount of lime because we could not taste it at first. We did just one teaspoon of cayenne pepper and it was the perfect amount for me.
Followed the recipe except used Tabasco instead of the cayenne but found the nuts not very "chile flavored" so I put on some garlic powder and some cumin but that didn't improve them much. We found it to be a weird combo of flavors with the peanuts--not enough depth of flavor. I may try it with some cashews (since they are also a legume) at some point--or just use my own spiced nuts recipe.
Delicious. Definitely have to tweak it to your taste. We went heavy on lime and used ground chipotle. Maybe try it with raw cashews next time and don't rush taking it out bake til nice and dry.
Awful needs fixing First make half a batch 6 cups??? Cut the chili powder by about 2/3 the salt by 1/2 and add a little sugar or stevia to cut the bitterness. Pros: few Cons: About 3x too much chili powder too much salt
Mimics store brought tastes home mde I have been making my own seasoned nuts for several years and have been waiting for a chili lime version this one did it for me! Yummy! Added a bit more lime for my taste and mixed chili powders to include ancho chili for a depth of flavor. Pros: Less salt and less oils than purchased varities super easy Cons: - can't describe anything bad
Not Much Flavor I made these for my husband who loves store-bought chile lime nuts. We were both surprised that they do not really taste like anything even with the max amount of Cayenne. We don't like to waste food so we will eat them. However we won't be making them again.
