NUTS AND BOLTS

Feel free to substitute salts for powders, but cut the quantities to avoid overpowering the mixture.

Provided by Food Network

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 small box each: Rice Chex, Wheat Chex, Corn Chex
1 med. bag thin pretzels
1 can salted peanuts
1 can salted mixed nuts
1 cup corn oil
1/4 cup Worcestershire sauce
1/4 cup onion salt
1/4 cup garlic salt

Steps:

  • Mix sauce and spices in oil. In a large, shallow roasting pan, layer cereal (mixed), pretzels and nuts, drizzling each layer with the oil mixture. Bake at 250 degrees F for 2 hours, stirring every half hour.

Tips:

  • Choose the right bolts. Not all bolts are created equal. For frying, you'll want to choose bolts that are made of a high-quality metal, such as stainless steel or cast iron. These metals will conduct heat evenly and won't warp or melt when they're heated to high temperatures.
  • Season the bolts before frying. This will help to create a crispy crust and prevent the bolts from sticking to the pan. You can season the bolts with salt, pepper, garlic powder, or any other spices you like.
  • Use a well-seasoned pan. A well-seasoned pan will help to prevent the bolts from sticking and will also help to create a crispy crust.
  • Don't overcrowd the pan. If you overcrowd the pan, the bolts will not cook evenly and will be more likely to stick together.
  • Fry the bolts in hot oil. The oil should be hot enough to cause the bolts to sizzle when they're added to the pan. This will help to create a crispy crust.
  • Don't overcook the bolts. Bolts are best when they're cooked until they're just tender. If you overcook them, they will become tough and chewy.

Conclusion:

Fried bolts are a delicious and unique snack or side dish. They're easy to make and can be seasoned with a variety of spices to suit your taste. So next time you're looking for something different to try, give fried bolts a try. You won't be disappointed!
