Frosted peanuts are actually a relatively common beet. They are white in color, sweet and crispy. They are a common dish at home and at banquets, and are also a favorite snack for adults and children.

Different from boiled peanuts, the method of hanging frosted peanuts is a little more complicated, and there are a few tricks involved. After mastering these few tips, you can make the same frosted peanuts as in restaurants at home. Let’s take a look at the specific ingredients and steps.

The materials prepared are: 1000g peanuts, 100g sugar, 2 eggs, 100g corn starch, a small amount of white sesame seeds

1. First, pour the peanuts into a basin and wash them with water. Clean it, then take it out and control the water for later use. Then add half a spoonful of salt to the peanuts, stir evenly with chopsticks, then add 2 eggs, and stir evenly again.

2. Pour cornstarch into the peanuts in batches. It is best to fully coat each peanut with starch until the peanuts do not stick to each other.

3. At this step, it’s time to fry the peanuts. Pour oil into the pot and heat the oil until it is 40% hot. Use a slotted spoon to sift off the excess starch on the surface of the peanuts, then pour the peanuts into the oil. In the pot, turn to low heat and fry slowly. Use chopsticks to stir constantly when frying. It usually takes about 5 minutes to fry. When the peanuts make a crackling sound, take them out to control the oil.

4. This step is to boil the sugar juice. Pour a small amount of water into the pot, add the sugar, and slowly boil the sugar over medium heat.

Be sure to stir constantly when boiling the sugar juice. When the sugar juice thickens and the bubbles turn into small bubbles, pour in the fried peanuts and stir-fry quickly and evenly. After the sugar juice coats the peanuts, sprinkle in an appropriate amount of white sesame seeds and stir-fry evenly, then turn off the heat immediately.

Stir-fry the peanuts while they are cooling. As the temperature decreases, the frosting will become whiter and whiter, and finally it will crystallize.

Tips

(1) If you want the frost on the surface of the peanuts to be thicker, you can increase the amount of sugar and starch appropriately.

(2) When boiling sugar juice, you must control the heat, otherwise the sugar juice will become bitter.
