Preheat your oven to 300°F (150°C) and line a large baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat.
In a small bowl, whisk together the wasabi powder, soy sauce, canola oil, honey, granulated sugar, and salt until you have a smooth and well-combined mixture.
Place the raw almonds in a large mixing bowl. Pour the wasabi mixture over the almonds and toss thoroughly to ensure all almonds are evenly coated.
Spread the coated almonds in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet, making sure they are not overcrowded.
Bake the almonds in the preheated oven for 20 minutes, stirring halfway through to ensure even roasting.
Remove the almonds from the oven and let them cool completely on the baking sheet. They will become crisp as they cool.
Once cooled, transfer the wasabi almonds to an airtight container for storage. They can be kept at room temperature for up to 2 weeks.
