New York Deli Snack Mix Recipes

NEW YORK DELI DOGS

Steps:

• For the coleslaw: Combine the mayonnaise, vinegar, sugar and celery seed in a large bowl and mix well. Stir in the coleslaw mix and season with salt and pepper. Let the coleslaw sit in the fridge until ready to serve.
• For the Russian dressing: Combine the mayonnaise, ketchup, relish and sour cream in a small bowl. Mix well and season with salt and pepper.
• For the hot dogs: Heat a grill or grill pan over medium-high heat.
• Spread the mustard over each hot dog and wrap each dog diagonally in a slice of pastrami. Grill the hot dogs for 4 minutes on each side. Place each dog in a warm bun and top with the coleslaw and dressing.

SWEET LEMON SNACK MIX

Steps:

• Line 2 baking sheets with parchment paper. Toss the cereal, pretzels and cookies in a large bowl. Combine the white chocolate chips, butter, lemon curd and lemon zest and juice in a medium bowl. Microwave at 50 percent power in 15-second intervals, stirring, until melted, 1 to 1 1/2 minutes; whisk until smooth.
• Pour the white chocolate mixture over the snack mix; toss to coat. Sprinkle with 1 cup confectioners' sugar and the powdered gelatin and toss again. Spread on the prepared baking sheets and let dry, 30 minutes. Toss with the remaining 1/2 cup confectioners' sugar. Divide among cellophane bags.

TERIYAKI SNACK MIX

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Toss the rice cereal, green beans, chow mein noodles, almonds and sesame sticks together in a large bowl. Whisk the butter, teriyaki, brown sugar, vinegar, garlic, five-spice, pepper flakes and 1/2 teaspoon salt together in a small bowl until smooth. Pour the sauce over the snack mix and toss well.
• Spread in one layer on a rimmed baking sheet and bake until the mix is toasted and almost completely dry, 16 to 18 minutes, stirring occasionally. Remove from the oven and stir in the wasabi peas. Let cool completely, and then store in an airtight container for up to 3 days.

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.

SWEET-AND-SALTY PARTY MIX

Steps:

• Heat oven to 250 degrees. Lightly grease two rimmed baking sheets with vegetable oil. In a small saucepan, combine 3 tablespoons vegetable oil with the butter, corn syrup, sugar, soy sauce, Worcestershire, salt and cayenne. Cook, stirring occasionally, over medium heat until the mixture is smooth and syrupy, about 5 minutes. Set aside.
• In a large bowl, combine all the ingredients for the snack mix, except the hemp seeds. Pour the syrup over the mix and toss with a wooden spoon to evenly coat all the pieces.
• Divide the mix across the two prepared baking sheets. Sprinkle the hemp seeds evenly over the mixture on both baking sheets.
• Bake until the mix is dry, about 1 hour and 15 minutes, tossing well every 15 minutes. The mixture will be dry but still sticky, and will set as it cools.
• Let the mix cool completely before breaking it into pieces to serve. Store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 1 week.
