The soy evaporates and leaves a salty glaze welded onto the nut, which is far better than plain salted.

Ingredients

2 cups (300g) Almonds — The best nut source of vitamin E, and enough magnesium that a handful is a meaningful contribution.
2 1/2 tbsp (40g) Tamari or Soy Sauce — Tossed through the hot nuts as they come out of the oven, where it hisses off and leaves the salt behind.
1/2 tsp (2g) Chilli Flakes — Optional. With the tamari it makes them very hard to stop eating, which is the only argument against them.
