How to Make Salty Dawg Popcorn

  1. Preheat your oven to 250°F (120°C).
  2. In a small saucepan, melt 1/2 cup (1 stick) of butter over medium heat.
  3. Remove from heat and stir in 2 tablespoons soy sauce, 1 teaspoon garlic powder, and 1/2 teaspoon ground ginger.
  4. In a large roasting pan, combine 10 cups popped popcorn (about 1/2 cup unpopped kernels), 1 cup chow mein noodles, and 1 cup buttery pretzels.
  5. Pour the butter mixture evenly over the popcorn mixture, ensuring all ingredients are well coated. Toss gently to combine.
  6. Bake uncovered for 40 minutes, stirring every 10 minutes to prevent burning and ensure even cooking.
  7. Remove from the oven and let cool completely to room temperature. This allows the popcorn to crisp up and the flavors to meld.
  8. Store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2-3 weeks. Enjoy!
