Steps:
- Preheat oven to 250 F, and have 2 oven tray/cookie sheets handy. If your cookie sheets are old and tired, you can line them with parchment paper if you wish.
- Put the dry ingredients into a large vessel. A roasting pan works nicely for size. You're only mixing in, not using the roasting pan for baking.
- Mix the melted butter, garlic salt, celery salt and Worcestershire.
- Pour the butter mixture over the dry ingredients. Be sure to mix everything very well - I get in there with my nice, clean hands and toss together thoroughly. At this point you won't see a lot of visible butter sauce coating the dry mix, but the butter mixture will be plentiful and will nicely spread around once baking in the oven.
- Spread the sauce covered nuts and bolts in a single layer on oven trays or cookie sheets and bake for 30 minutes at 250 F while stirring and mixing frequently during baking time. I stir, turn and mix about every 10 minutes during the 30 minute baking time. The dry ingredients will be nicely toasted at the end of baking.
- Remove from the oven, cool and store in airtight containers or Ziploc bags.
- These nuts and bolts are easily frozen if you'd like to make them in advance. Some of my family like to eat them right out of the freezer.

Tips:
- Choose Nuts Wisely: Select nuts that are fresh, flavorful, and unsalted. Avoid nuts that appear shriveled or discolored.
- Toasting Nuts: Toasting nuts enhances their flavor and aroma. Spread nuts in a single layer on a baking sheet and toast in a preheated oven at 350°F for 5-10 minutes, stirring occasionally. Watch closely to prevent burning.
- Storage: Store nuts in airtight containers in a cool, dry place to maintain their freshness and prevent rancidity. Roasted nuts can be stored for up to 2 weeks, while unroasted nuts can last for several months.
- Experiment with Different Nuts: Don't limit yourself to just a few types of nuts. Experiment with a variety of nuts, such as almonds, walnuts, pecans, hazelnuts, and pistachios, to add different flavors and textures to your dishes.
- Use Nuts as a Topping: Sprinkle nuts over salads, yogurt, oatmeal, or ice cream for an extra crunch and flavor boost.
- Add Nuts to Baked Goods: Incorporate nuts into muffins, cookies, cakes, and breads for a nutty flavor and added texture.
- Make Nut Butter: Blend nuts in a food processor until they reach a smooth and creamy consistency. Use nut butter as a spread on toast, crackers, or fruit, or add it to smoothies and sauces.
- Use Nuts in Savory Dishes: Nuts can add a savory touch to stir-fries, curries, and pasta dishes. They can also be used to make pesto or as a crispy coating for fish or chicken.
Conclusion:
Incorporating nuts into your diet is a delicious and nutritious way to improve your overall health. With their rich flavor, versatility, and numerous health benefits, nuts are a true culinary treasure. Whether you enjoy them as a snack, use them as a cooking ingredient, or add them to baked goods, nuts are a welcome addition to any kitchen and diet.
