Peanuts, Whole Blanched (Organic, Bulk) - 25kg
We all know what a peanut is, but what, you may ask, is blanching? When peanuts are removed from their shells, they have a natural reddish skin. Blanching is the process of removing that skin by placing the peanut in hot water for a few minutes and then rubbing the skin off. The advantage of blanching is that un-blanched peanuts can be more difficult to work with. When making peanut butter or simply cooking with an un-blanched peanut, the skin can get in the way, or can flake off and burn or give your dish a less appealing look with.
Ingredients: Certified Organic whole blanched peanuts
Origin: Packed in New Zealand from imported ingredients (China/Argentina)
Certification: BioGro Organic
Enjoy Me...
- Use blanched raw peanuts as a snack or as the basis for peanut butter and sauces. You can also roast the nuts after blanching to bring out their nutty flavour.
- Peanuts are great to use when making nut balls, or crushed and roasted to garnish a curry or stirfries and salads.
How Interesting...
- Peanuts are not real nuts. They’re legumes which have the peculiar habit of ripening underground where the fruits appear to function as roots, absorbing mineral nutrients directly from the soil.
- A favourite snack food, peanuts pack a serious nutritional punch – rich in protein, dietary fibre and other vital nutrients. They add texture and taste to many recipes and make a great ingredient for desserts, baking, trail mixes and cereals.
