01 -
  • It comes together in ten minutes but tastes like you spent all day planning it
  • The seasoning mix hits every flavor note from salty to smoky with just enough heat
  • Everyone reaches for it instinctively, and nobody can eat just one handful
02 -
  • Resist the urge to crank up the oven temperature low and slow is what makes everything perfectly crispy without burning
  • Stirring every 15 minutes is nonnegotiable unless you want some pieces scorched and others underdone
03 -
  • Make sure your butter is completely cooled before whisking in the Worcestershire or it can separate
  • If you're making this for kids, reduce or skip the cayenne altogether
