TIPS

Here are some tips to help you prepare these smoky, spiced mixed nuts.

  • Even Coating: Stir the nuts well to ensure all are evenly seasoned.
  • Watch Closely: Nuts can burn quickly; check them often while roasting.
  • Add Sweetness: A pinch of brown sugar or honey adds a caramelised flavour.
  • Use A Dry Pan: If short on time, toast the nuts in a dry skillet over medium heat for 5-7 minutes.
  • Enhance Crunch: Let the nuts cool completely before storing to retain crispiness.

VARIATIONS

  • Spicy Kick: Add cayenne pepper or chilli flakes for heat.
  • Herb-Infused: Toss with dried rosemary or thyme for an aromatic touch.
  • Coconut Flavour: Use coconut oil instead of olive oil for a unique taste.
  • Nut Mix: Replace cashews or almonds with pecans, walnuts or peanuts.
  • Cheesy Twist: Sprinkle some grated Parmesan after roasting for a cheesy snack.

PREPPING AND STORAGE

  • Short-Term Storage: Keep in an airtight container at room temperature for up to a week.
  • Long-Term Storage: Store in the fridge for up to a month to maintain freshness.
  • Freezing Option: Freeze in a sealed bag for up to 3 months; thaw before serving.
  • Reheat Tip: If nuts lose crispiness, toast them in a dry pan for a few minutes.
