Tahini Honey Roasted Cashews

May 5, 2015 By Manu 3 Comments

Tahini Honey Roasted Cashews

Today I want to share with you a fantastic recipe for Tahini Honey Roasted Cashews.  Italians love and are quite famous for their aperitivo.  For who doesn’t know what aperitivo is… it is our way to start off dinner.  We usually drink some wine (cocktails have been introduced too, lately) and eat something with it, to “prepare”our tastebuds for dinner.  In more recent years, aperitivo has become much more similar to a meal on its own, especially in the north of Italy and in Milan.  Many youngsters get together at local cafes to have an aperitivo, which is served with tapa style dishes and they make dinner out of it.  If you are interested to find out more, my friend Paolo has written a wonderful article about aperitivo on Quatro Fromaggio and Other Disgraces on the Menu.  These cashew nuts would be perfect as part of an aperitivo and would go great with a nice glass of wine before dinner… a very tasty snack!  Enjoy!

    Cashews are great coated in just about anything, but I like the addition of tahini to this recipe.
