General Information

Despite popular belief, peanuts do not belong in the nut family. Legumes include foods like green peas, soybeans, lentils, etc. Peanuts are thought to have originated in Brazil or Peru in South America. South American scientists have discovered 3,500-year-old earthenware painted with peanuts and shaped like peanuts.

Peanuts are the fruit of the peanut plant, which is underground. Americans began producing peanuts as a commercial crop in the early 1800s. In the United States, peanut consumption averages more than six pounds a year. Peanut butter accounts for 50 per cent of the peanuts consumed in the United States today.

You can save some time by buying peanuts roasted. Because the roasted nuts will stay fresh for more time, and they are more delicious this way.

 

Serving suggestions

It is possible to eat raw peanuts and blanched, roasted, boiled, deep-fried, powdered, and peanut butter, but the salty ones taste better.

You can include roasted peanuts in your diet in a variety of ways.

• Snack on them – it’s simple to take a handful of peanuts.

• Make homemade peanut butter or add them to a smoothie.

Storage 

It is best to process your nuts just before use. However, if you’d like to have peanuts ready for adding your dishes, dice them, and freeze in an airtight container apart from foods with strong odours. They will keep for over a year in the freezer, and you can get the amount you need, bring them to room temperature and use them immediately.
