This is how I toast other nuts, but I've never tried toasting pine nuts because they are so small and delicate. I'd be afraid of burning them and having to toss them because, as you noted above, they are pricey. I use your method when toasting other nuts and don't have a problem with burning them. I have also put nuts on a dry baking sheet in a 300* oven for about five to seven minutes or until they begin to emit their fragrance. Remove from oven, give them a stir, and allow to cool. There is some residual toasting while the nuts cool on the baking sheet.I have toasted them before but most times I just use them raw.
When I toast them I just stir in a skillet over low heat. I think the secret is to stir continuously, use low heat and watch them carefully. It doesn’t take very long to toast them.
