1 tablespoon toasted sesame oil
2 teaspoons low-sodium soy sauce
1 1/2 teaspoons finely grated fresh ginger
1 teaspoon five-spice powder
1 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes
Kosher salt
Nuts:
Vegetable oil, for oiling the baking sheet
1 large egg white
4 cups unsalted raw cashews
1 cup chopped cooked bacon
Directions

For the nuts:
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Lightly oil a rimmed baking sheet.
