Spicy Crunch Mix Recipes

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.

Steps:

• Cut shallots crosswise into 1/4-inch-thick slices. In a deep 12-inch heavy skillet heat oil over moderately high heat until hot but not smoking and fry shallots, stirring occasionally, until golden brown, about 7 minutes. Transfer shallots with a slotted spoon to paper towels to drain and season with salt. Pour off all but about 1 1/2 tablespoons oil from skillet and stir in cayenne and cumin. Cook spices over moderate heat, stirring, until fragrant, about 10 seconds. Remove skillet from heat and cool seasoned oil to room temperature.
• Add shallots, peas, soybeans, and salt and pepper to taste to seasoned oil, tossing to combine. Mix may be made 1 day ahead and kept in an airtight container at room temperature.
