SWEET-AND-SALTY PARTY MIX
This joyful, crunchy snack to share with friends (and enjoy with cocktails) relies on corn syrup, sugar and soy sauce for a balance of sweet and savory. The glaze in this recipe is a riff on the sweet-and-salty coating used in cereal-seaweed snack mixes found in Hawaii that bakes into an irresistible, super-crisp shell. A bit of Worcestershire sauce lend some tang, and cayenne adds a surprising touch of heat. Use the mix-in amounts as a guide, and feel free to use whatever cereals, crackers and nuts speak to you.

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.
Tips:
- Choose a variety of snacks: Use a mix of sweet and salty snacks, as well as different textures and flavors. This will create a more interesting and enjoyable snack mix.
- Use fresh ingredients: Whenever possible, use fresh ingredients for the best flavor. For example, use fresh pretzels instead of stale ones, and use fresh nuts instead of roasted ones.
- Don't be afraid to experiment: There are endless possibilities when it comes to making snack mixes. Don't be afraid to try different combinations of snacks and flavors until you find one that you love.
- Make it your own: Add your own personal touch to your snack mix by adding your favorite snacks or flavors. For example, if you love chocolate, you could add chocolate chips or candy bars to your mix.
Conclusion:
Making your own sweet and salty snack mix is a great way to save money, control your ingredients, and enjoy a delicious snack. With a little creativity, you can make a snack mix that is perfect for any occasion. So next time you're looking for a snack, skip the store-bought mix and make your own instead.
