If you're planning a movie night with your loved ones, instead of traditional popcorn, make a delicious, crunchy, sweet-and-salty snack mix. This mix includes popcorn, Japanese rice crackers, salted peanuts, sesame seeds, and savory wasabi peas. All the snacks are mixed together, coated in hot caramel, and then baked in the oven to set the caramel. The mix develops a rich, moderately sweet flavor that perfectly complements the flavors of each individual ingredient. Serve when the caramel has cooled completely. You can make a large batch in advance; it will keep for up to two weeks.

Cooking the dish according to the recipe:
- Preheat oven to 350°F (110°C). Spray 2 baking sheets with cooking spray. Combine popcorn, rice crackers, peanuts, sesame seeds, and wasabi peas in a large bowl.
- Combine brown sugar, corn syrup, butter, and salt in a heavy saucepan and heat over medium-high heat. Bring to a boil, stirring constantly, then simmer, stirring, until thickened, about 1 minute more. Remove from heat. Stir in vanilla extract and baking soda thoroughly (the caramel will bubble).
- Pour the hot caramel over the popcorn mixture and stir with a metal spoon (don't worry if the caramel is too thick; it will melt in the oven). Spread the popcorn on the prepared baking sheets; bake, stirring every 15 minutes to coat evenly, for 45 minutes to 1 hour. Let cool completely. Break up the snack mixture and store in an airtight container for up to 2 weeks.
