Kicked Up Party Nuts Sriracha Recipes

SPICY PARTY MIX

Steps:

• Arrange racks in the top and bottom thirds of the oven and heat to 250 degrees. Line two sheet pans with parchment paper.
• Combine cereal, nuts, pretzels and add-ins in a very large bowl. In a medium, microwave-safe bowl, melt butter in the microwave in 20-second increments, about 1 minute. (You can also do this in a small saucepan over low heat on the stovetop.) Add Worcestershire sauce, hot sauce, garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, salt and pepper. Stir until well mixed.
• Add half of the melted butter mixture to the cereal mixture. Gently and thoroughly fold to combine. Add the rest of the melted butter mixture and stir until evenly coated. Taste and adjust seasonings.
• Divide the mixture evenly across the prepared pans. Bake, stirring and switching racks every 15 minutes, until crisp and slightly darkened in color, about 1 hour. Cool completely on the pans on wire racks before serving (if you can wait that long). Store in an airtight container for up to 3 weeks.

KICKED-UP PARTY NUTS (SRIRACHA)

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 250°F Whisk together the egg white, water and sriracha. Toss the nuts with the egg wash until evenly coated.
• In another bowl, mix together granulated sugar, brown sugar and rosemary. Pour over the nuts and stir until a thick, uniform syrup forms in the bowl.
• Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or waxed paper and spread the gooey nuts into a thin layer. Bake until golden and fragrant, about 1 hour, stirring every 15 minutes.
