I like mixed nuts as a mostly healthy protein snack, but find the flavor bland. As a result I really like flavored ones, but that’s a waste of money when I could buy bulk unseasoned and make my own mixes.
The issue is I don’t really know how to get the spices to adhere to the dry nut properly (I’ve tried making“wet” mixes before, but those required refrigeration. Mustard and cashews is a surprisingly good flavor pair.).
Is there some strange chemical the nut companies are adding to the powder they mix them with or is it a machine?
Any tips would be greatly appreciated.
Usually spritzing them with vegetable oil before tossing them with a dry seasoning will do the trick
Oil slaps forehead. Get me one of those dunce caps I shoulda thought of that.
Edit: yo dawg I heard you like peanuts so I put peanut oil on your peanuts to make the peanut powder stick to them so you could peanut while you peanut
bingo, then bake them for 15-20 min. the oil mostly evaporates and the seasoning sticks
Brilliant, thank you.
