How to make crispy, fragrant, non-burnt and long-lasting roasted peanuts with just a few drops of this water

Crispy roasted peanuts are a familiar and special snack to enjoy when leisurely or during chilly weather. However, many people find that their roasted peanuts are crunchy but lack the desired softness, and the shells often end up burnt or spotted.

Veggie fried peanuts (meaning fried without adding any seasoning) and salted fried peanuts are popular snacks. The criteria for delicious fried peanuts are that they must be crispy and have a fluffy texture, with the inside peanuts cooked fragrantly without being greasy, and the outside skin turning dark but not burnt. The delicious fried peanuts should last long without becoming rancid.

Many people often fry peanuts by buying dried peanuts and immediately putting them in the pan and stirring constantly until they are cooked. This method also helps the peanuts become crispy but not fluffy and easily burnt skin. To make delicious fried peanuts (whether fried without seasoning or fried with salt and oil), pay attention to two important things: soaking before frying and soaking in alcohol after being cooked.

Specifically, the soaking and frying peanuts are as follows:

Step 1: Soak and rinse the peanuts: The peanuts bought from the market may be at risk of being dirty and contain preservatives. Therefore, when buying, it is necessary to rinse and soak them for about 10 minutes so that the peanuts absorb water but not for too long because it will cause the peanut shell to peel off. Soaking helps the peanuts to cook evenly and have a fluffy inside. Without soaking, the peanuts will still be crispy but not as fluffy. The dried nuts are often “stuck” so when frying without soaking in water, the peanuts will not be as fluffy as soaking in water.

Remove the peanuts and pat them dry.

Soaking is a step that many people often overlook when frying peanuts.

Step 2: Fry the peanuts: Place the pan on the stove, add the soaked peanuts and begin frying until the water evaporates, the peanuts start to expand, and the shell turns darker. Always stir to prevent the peanuts from burning and to evenly distribute the heat in the peanuts. The soaking step is the step that helps the heat cook evenly, without charring the outside. When frying, pay attention not to use too high heat, which will easily burn the outer shell while the inside is not cooked. The peanuts should be fried on low heat to cook slowly from the inside.

Step 3: When the peanuts are dry, add cooking oil and quickly stir. When the peanuts start to turn darker, gently stir to make the peanuts crispy and evenly cooked. Many people make the mistake of heating the oil and then adding the peanuts, which will easily burn the peanut shell.

Step 4: Pour white alcohol into the pan of hot peanuts. When the alcohol evaporates, the peanuts will still be slightly hot, then add a little salt and stir well. Avoid adding salt when it is too hot, the salt will dissolve and not stick to the peanuts. Then, stir well to cool and store in a jar.

White alcohol helps the peanuts stay less greasy and prevent bacteria, thus preserving the fragrant crispiness longer.
