Fire crackers are a cheap and deliciously spicy party snack that requires no cooking. These are really great with chili.
For optimal flavor and even seasoning, ensure the oil and spice blend is thoroughly emulsified before adding crackers; this prevents spices from settling. The overnight rest is critical, allowing the crackers to fully absorb the robust spice blend and achieve their signature seasoned-through texture. Gently rotate and flip the bag periodically during the resting period to prevent crackers from clumping and ensure maximum coverage. Adjust crushed red pepper flakes to personal preference for desired heat. The crackers will soften slightly from oil absorption, which is an expected part of their appeal. Store in an airtight container to maintain freshness.
