so i had this several pound bag of pecans laying around. they don't quite taste good when just eaten standalone(they aren't salted), so i had to think of something before these things expire (summer 2009, ololol). what i did was took a handfull of pecans and tossed em in a frying pan, i added quite a bit of butter to that, and cooked em on low with a dash of salt till the pecans started to brown.
then all i did was tossed those pecans into a bowl of vanilla ice cream, and the melted butter drizzled on top of that, with some caramel to finish it off.
i may just start butter frying my pecans more often, they taste great in ice cream, and they taste great just eaten as is.
