Caramelised Sugared Almonds with Hogweed Seed

A crunchy unrefined sugared snack complete with the delightful zing of hogweed seeds. Inspired by my talented friend and chef Fiona Were. Fiona created a delicious hogweed seed caramel for a group of foodie Americans whom I took foraging here in Cornwall. This recipe balances the carbohydrate of sugars with the protein of nuts. These give a definite lift to sluggish afternoons.

Hogweed seeds (Heracleum sphondylium) is a member of the umbellifer (carrot) family. Members of the carrot family must be identified correctly to avoid illness or death!
