Peanut Preparation

Method

Preparation Steps

  1. 1

    Rinse the Peanuts

    Place the raw peanuts in a colander and rinse them thoroughly under cold running water to remove any dust or debris.

  2. 2

    Soak the Peanuts

    In a large bowl, combine the rinsed peanuts with 4 cups of water. Let them soak for at least 4 hours or overnight for best results.

  3. 3

    Drain and Dry

    After soaking, drain the peanuts and spread them out on a clean kitchen towel. Pat them dry to remove excess moisture.

  4. 4

    Roasting the Peanuts

    Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Spread the soaked peanuts evenly on a baking sheet. Drizzle with 2 tablespoons of olive oil and sprinkle with 1 teaspoon of salt. Toss to coat the peanuts evenly.

  5. 5

    Bake the Peanuts

    Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and roast the peanuts for 20-25 minutes, stirring halfway through, until they are golden brown and fragrant.

  6. 6

    Cool and Serve

    Remove the peanuts from the oven and let them cool on the baking sheet. Once cooled, serve them as a snack or store them in an airtight container.
