Everyone has their favorite snack mix recipe and here is Wood Stone’s own: Wood Stone Party Mix. Use the same technique for your own recipe. I like the long, shallow rectangular aluminum “disposable” sheet pans for this as well as many other uses in the oven, but I don’t throw them away; they wash up quite easily. They are lightweight and easy to maneuver in the oven and are thin enough to quickly allow the hearth heat to penetrate the food; no pre-heating necessary. Autumn means squash and pumpkins and with them those often disposed of seeds! Clean them off and throw them in a hot Wood Stone oven to toast up into a quick and tasty snack. Any temperature between 400 and 600 degrees will work…just keep an eye on them and stir often. Toss the seeds with olive oil, salt and pepper and spread out evenly on a thin aluminum pan. Keep the flame height around 3.0 and cook until golden brown and lightly crisped, about 8-12 minutes, depending on oven temperature. I also like to mix it up with seasonings such as curry powder or a mix of ground chiles and cumin. -Chef Ann |
