Preheat oven to 225°F. Line a large shallow baking
pan with foil.
In a bowl, combine egg white and water; beat
until foamy. Add walnuts and toss to coat. Pour the
mixture into a strainer and let drain for 2-3 minutes.
Combine sugar, cinnamon and allspice in a plastic or
paper bag; shake to mix. Add the walnuts; hold the
bag shut and shake vigorously to coat the nuts.
Spread the nuts in one layer in the baking pan.
Bake for 1 hour, stirring every 15 minutes.
Remove from the oven and let cool completely,
stirring occasionally and breaking the nuts apart if
they are stuck together. Don’t worry if they stick to
the foil—it’s easy to peel them off. Store in a tightly
capped jar. Makes 2 cups.
