Orange Pecans
 
1 cup sugar
½ cup water 
1/16 teaspoon cream of tartar
Grated rind of 1 orange
2 tablespoons orange juice
2 cups pecan halves
Salt 

Dissolve the sugar and cream of tartar in water in saucepan. Cook to the soft ball stage (238° F.) Remove the syrup from heat, add orange juice and rind, pecans and salt. Stir until the sugar crystallizes. Place in a greased shallow pan. Separate the nuts with two forks while the mixture is warm.

Be sure that each nut is covered with the orange-sugar mixture. Store in a tightly covered container.
