Set oven to 350F.

Mix together the seasonings in a small bowl and set aside.
Step 3
In a large bowl, beat an egg white until it becomes foamy or frothy, about 6 to 8 minutes. It is VERY important that it becomes white and frothy.

Add the nuts to the bowl, followed by the seasoning. Mix everything together using a spatula and ensure every nut is covered in the seasoning.
