    Asian Popcorn Snack Mix

    4
    By Alisa Fleming on March 5, 2015 Dairy-Free Recipes, Dairy-Free Snack Recipes

    I seriously cannot get enough of the cool recipes from The Popcorn Board. I also still can’t get over the fact that there is a popcorn board! I mean, do they really need a marketing body to ensure that people eat popcorn? I suppose I shouldn’t question it when they’re coming up with gems like this Asian popcorn snack mix.

    Asian Popcorn Mix - perfect recipe for daily snacking or party munchies!

    I currently eat popcorn almost every day, and its fun to shake things up once in a while, beyond my simple coconut oil and salt routine. But while those sweet kettle and dairy-free caramel recipes are tempting, I usually prefer my corny snack on the savory side. This Asian popcorn snack mix bridges those two cravings nicely – it has a touch of sweet from the rice cracker mix, but deep, savory and salty notes emerge from the sesame, soy and buttery spread. I can’t help but think how perfect this recipe is for afternoon snacks, lunch boxes, potlucks, and even watching sports!

    Special Diet Notes: Asian Popcorn Snack Mix

    By ingredients, this recipe is dairy-free / non-dairy, egg-free, nut-free, peanut-free, vegan / plant-based, and vegetarian. Just be sure the rice cracker mix you choose is safe for your dietary needs.

    For gluten-free Asian popcorn snack mix, it’s a little trickier, but doable. I scoured the internet for a gluten-free oriental rice snack mix, with no luck. BUT, I think you can get equally tasty results by breaking up gluten-free rice crackers, such as Ka-Me rice crackers, they offer various Asian-inspired flavors, and adding gluten-free wasabi peas. Also, use wheat-free tamari for the soy sauce.

    Not a fan of buttery spread? I find that coconut oil is amazing on popcorn and offers more richness than buttery spread. If desired, you can substitute coconut oil and a pinch of salt for the buttery spread in this Asian popcorn snack mix.

    Serves: 8 cups
    Ingredients
    • 6 cups popped non-GMO popcorn
    • 2 cups dairy-free Oriental rice cracker mix
    • 3 tablespoons dairy-free buttery spread / margarine (see note in post above for alternative)
    • 1 tablespoon soy sauce or wheat-free tamari
    • ½ to 1 teaspoon ground ginger, or to taste
    • ¼ to ½ teaspoon sesame oil, or to taste
    Instructions
    1. Preheat your oven to 300°F.
    2. Stir the popcorn and rice cracker mix together in a large bowl.
    3. In a small microwave-safe bowl, microwave the margarine on high until melted, about 20 seconds. Stir in the soy sauce, ginger and oil. Drizzle over popcorn mixture; toss. If desired, sprinkle with additional ginger and/or sesame oil.
    4. Spread the mixture on a baking sheet and bake for 20 minutes, stirring once.
    5. Allow to cool, serve or store in airtight container.

      I know this was posted a while ago but Trader Joe’s has a gluten free rice cracker mix.

        Thanks for sharing Kristi! Is it dairy-free, too? I’ll check on that. And recipe posts don’t get old – recipes are forever! 🙂

      Oooh, I’m so intrigued by this recipe, Alisa! I could see it being more addictive than a sweet popcorn mix!

        Indeed! I love sweet everything, but savory popcorn blends are the most addictive in my opinion!
