Looks fabulous. Can’t believe I have almost all the ingredients and will make today. Thanks so much for posting. (even a popcorn popper…too funny!)
Bon Appétit!

I see, so you still kinda have to keep an eye on them? Very cool tip, thanks for sharing. We used to have one of those air poppers back when I was younger… I wonder where it went to. probably one of the garage sales you mentioned!
Be sure to let us know how you like this dish if you try it.

Actually, they don’t pop or come flying out. Just put about a 1/3 cup of nuts in at a time so that they swirl and self mix when the air is on. That way all of the nuts are roasted evenly. You can watch them getting brown through the clear acrylic.

interesting… so the nut will just come flying out of the popper when they’re done, like popcorn? I’m intrigued.

Yum. Think I will make this today. One suggestion I got from Alton Brown. Use a hot air popcorn popper to roast nuts. It roasts them perfectly and you don’t have to worry about the checking the nuts in the oven or a skillet for the 30 sec window when they are perfect, not underdone or burnt beyond salvage. The hot air popcorn poppers are ubiquitous at garage sales.

Sounds absolutely delicious. Would love to serve this in individual casserole dishes/ramekins. You guys eat all the best vegetables!
