Method
- Prep. If you use a sweet nut, moisten the fruits and salt them before mixing in the nuts, then let them air dry.
- Store. Store in an airtight container like a glass jar. Zipper bags and plastic containers are OK, but they are not perfectly airtight. Put them in a dark, cool place for up to 2 months. Don't store them with meat or cheese; they can spoil easily.
Notes
Note: You can customize the mix with any combination of ingredients, including:
Dried fruits. Raisins, cranberries, cherries, apricots, apples, bananas, pineapples, chopped prunes, chopped dates, chopped figs
Grains. Granola, oats, shelled sunflower seeds, shelled pumpkin seeds, popcorn, or caramel corn.
Candy. Chocolate chips, toffee bits, M&Ms, chocolate covered raisins, sweetened flaked coconut, candied orange rind, candied ginger.
Meats. Just before serving you might want to chop in some dry cooked sausage like pepperoni, Spanish chorizo, jerky, Landjäger, sausage sticks, or salami.
