Susie's Candied Pecans with Endive Salad

Susie's Candied Pecans with Endive Salad
1 lb. nuts (pecans, walnuts)
1/3 c. sugar
1/4 c. unsalted butter
1/4 c. orange juice
1 1/2 t. salt
1 1/4 t. cinnnamon
1/4 - 1/2 t. cayenne pepper
1/4 t. mace (I don't know what that is so I don't use it)

Heat all ingredients except nuts in skillet until blended. Fold in nuts.
Place on tin foil or non stick cookie sheet and cook 1 hour (turning every 15 minutes) at 250.
I put nuts in a salad with:
Belgian endive (either chopped or place ingredients over the leaves like boats)
crumbles of blue cheese
tart apple
fresh parsley
Good Seasons Italian Salad Dressing made with red wine vinegar and olive oil.
