Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil.

In a medium bowl, beat the egg white with water. Stir in pecans until well moistened.

Mix together sugar, salt, cinnamon, cloves and nutmeg in a small bowl. Sprinkle over the nuts.

Spread nuts on prepared baking sheet.

Bake for 25-30 minutes, stirring every 10 minutes, or until nuts are toasted and crispy (but not burned). Definitely keep your eye on them during the final 5 minutes, because mine were ready to come out of the oven after just 27 minutes.
