directions
- Preheat oven to 225ºF.
- Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Place the egg white in a large, stainless steel bowl and whip until frothy.

- Add the pecans and toss until completely coated.
- Add the sugar and toss again.
- Transfer the nuts to the prepared sheet and arrange in a single layer.
- Place in the oven and cook, stirring every 15 minutes, until lightly colored and dried out, about 1 hour and 15 minutes.
- Remove from the oven, immediately loosen the nuts with a metal spatula, sprinkle with the orange zest, and set aside to cool before serving.
- Don't substitute prepared orange juice for the concentrate, which is stickier and stronger.
- Mango, pineapple or orange sorbet makes a better substitute.
