Other cooking methods of peanuts

I have shared the method of deep-frying peanuts in the above content. There are two other methods of peanuts in China, namely poached peanuts and vinegar peanuts. These two cooking methods are also very popular. In summer evenings, many people eat boiled peanuts when they have dinner together. Compared with fried peanuts, boiled peanuts taste lighter and less greasy, so they are more popular. They are an indispensable cold dish on the table.

A lot of vinegar is added to the peanuts soaked in vinegar, and an appropriate amount of onion is added. It tastes a little bit of hot and sour taste, combined with the taste of peanuts, and tastes more unique. In summer, peanuts in vinegar and beer are a perfect match. Whether it is boiled peanuts or peanuts soaked in vinegar, they are very easy to make. They don’t use edible oil, so they taste lighter than fried peanuts. This is why many young people like them.

Especially when making boiled peanuts, you can choose some peanuts that are not fully mature. Wash the peanuts before they are hulled. Then add cinnamon, star anise, chili, salt and other seasonings, then boil in water, so that after the fresh and tender peanuts are cooked, various seasonings are immersed in the peanuts, so the taste will be very special.

Where is it easy to make mistakes when making fried peanuts

First of all, the peanuts we buy must be of high quality, and they must be washed in advance, and the water will be dried before frying. After the peanuts are fried, you should add a small amount of white wine, and then stir evenly to dry the peanuts. Many people forget to add white wine. Adding white wine can make the fried peanuts more crispy. And I recommend that you use a non-stick pan when frying peanuts. When frying peanuts, stir constantly on a low fire, never stop, and never use high fire to heat.

The benefits of eating raw peanuts

Usually, most of the peanuts I buy from the supermarket are cooked peanuts. We rarely eat raw peanuts. In fact, they are also rich in nutrients. Eating raw peanuts has some special benefits.

Peanuts are rich in unsaturated fatty acids and dietary fiber. When peanuts are not heated, various nutrients are preserved more complete. Eating raw peanuts can absorb more nutrients. Eating a few peanuts a day is helpful for gastrointestinal health. Although the red skin of peanuts is very light in weight, it contains special ingredients. It has a preventive effect on some gynecological diseases. It is good for some pregnant women to eat more.

In addition, the red skin of peanuts can promote hair growth. Regular eating of raw peanuts can make your hair more beautiful. But everyone should not eat too much peanuts every day. The amount of peanuts eaten by adults should be controlled below 50 g a day. If peanuts are found to sprout and deteriorate, they must be thrown away and absolutely not eaten.

The nutritional value of peanuts

The fat content of peanuts is very high. A large amount of peanuts are processed into peanut oil after they are mature. Its nutrition is not inferior to some meat products. Peanuts have higher calories than meat, so we usually don’t eat too much, it can easily lead to obesity.

Peanut species contains vitamins A, B, E, K, etc., and also contains lecithin, multiple amino acids, oleic acid, fatty acids and other ingredients, which are rich in nutritional value. Pregnant women should pay attention to eating peanuts for their health, but they should not eat more, and they should eat boiled peanuts instead of fried peanuts.
