SPICED GLAZED NUTS AND PRETZEL MIX
This is sweet and spicy and crunchy. Found on David Lebovitz site. Glazing the nuts with spices and adding a touch of sweetness, makes this the perfect nibble before dinner with an aperitif. I melt the butter in a large bowl, so I can do all the mixing in that bowl, making one less thing for me to wash as well. Note that the salt is added after the nuts are stirred, so it doesn't dissolve. And be sure to use coarse salt, which has an appealing, crunchy texture and more delicate flavor than ordinary table salt.

Tips:
- Choose the right pretzels: For the best results, use fresh, crunchy pretzels. Avoid using stale or soft pretzels, as they will not hold up well in the mix.
- Use a variety of toppings: The beauty of this snack mix is that you can customize it to your liking. Feel free to add or remove any toppings you like. Some popular options include nuts, seeds, dried fruit, and candy.
- Make sure the pretzels are evenly coated: To ensure that all of the pretzels are evenly coated, toss them in the melted butter or oil until they are completely covered.
- Bake the mix at a low temperature: Baking the mix at a low temperature helps to prevent the pretzels from burning. It also allows the flavors to meld together.
- Let the mix cool completely: Before serving, let the mix cool completely. This will help the chocolate to set and the flavors to develop.
