How to fry peanuts?

Hello everyone, I am Mingze Food. My answer to this question is: fried peanuts, as the name suggests, is to use cooking oil to fry peanuts. Although it seems to be a very simple production process, there are actually many tricks in it.

, and there are many different methods of making fried peanuts, but to simplify things, we'd better use the simplest method to make the most delicious food. This is what each of us looks forward to, so every day we

People who love food making are using their own experience to share their cooking methods with everyone. We are also learning from each other and mastering more food making skills, allowing us to go further in mutual communication.

Fried peanuts are a home-cooked side dish that can be eaten with wine or as an after-dinner snack.

Peanuts, also known as "ground fruits", are a nutritious food. Peanuts contain a large amount of fat, calories and protein, and also contain vitamin B1, magnesium, potassium, copper, zinc and iron.

Each 100 grams of peanuts contains 12% water, 26 grams of protein, 50 grams of fat and 20 grams of carbohydrates. Long-term consumption of peanuts can nourish and replenish them. Because the nutritional content of peanuts is very sufficient, they are called "

"Longevity Fruit", and like soybeans, it is called "plant meat".

The nutritional value of peanuts is higher than that of other food crops and can be compared with eggs.

Fried peanuts are also the most common way to eat peanuts. After being fried in hot water, the peanuts have a fresh and crispy texture that you will never get tired of eating. Especially as a side dish with wine, it is really suitable.

Let’s first share in detail how to make oiled peanuts.

Ingredients: 500 grams of peanuts, 1000 grams of edible oil (actual consumption is 0) Seasoning: 10 grams of refined salt, four or five star anise, a dozen peppercorns - Production method 1. Add 1000 grams of edible oil to the pot, and then put it directly

Add 500 grams of peanuts, heat over low heat, dip and fry slowly, do not set the heat too high.

2. After the oil temperature gradually increases, add star anise and Sichuan peppercorns, continue to fry slowly, and try to control the fire to ensure that the temperature is not too high.

3. At this time, we need to observe the color change of the peanuts. When we see that the color of the peanuts becomes darker and the peanuts become slightly larger, we can turn off the heat.

4. Remove the fried peanuts from the filtered oil, sprinkle with refined salt to taste while hot, then shake the container of peanuts to make the salt and peanuts evenly coated, and the fried peanuts are ready.

This is the simplest method of frying peanuts. It saves time and effort, and the fried peanuts taste good. The most important thing is that the method is very simple.

★Why should peanuts be cooked in cold oil?

Answer: Put the peanuts in cold oil in the pot, which can increase the temperature of the peanuts and the oil simultaneously, without causing the hot oil to enter the pot, causing the peanuts to be burnt on the outside and undercooked on the inside.

★Why should we fry it slowly over low heat?

Answer: Only by slow frying over low heat can the peanuts be heated evenly, and the peanuts can mature slowly as the oil temperature increases. Only in this way can the fried peanuts have an attractive color and crispy texture.

★Why use 1000 grams of cooking oil, but it is indeed 0 consumption?

Answer: Although we use a lot of cooking oil to fry peanuts, which seems wasteful, don't worry too much, because we will not waste a drop of oil, but will slightly increase the amount of oil. This is because the peanuts themselves

The peanuts are rich in oil. After being fried at high temperatures, the peanuts themselves will leak out oil, so not only did we not waste oil, but we also gained some excess peanut oil.

——Final summary: When making fried peanuts, many people like to soak them in water in advance, but I don’t like this method. This is a bit superfluous. One is that it prolongs the production time, and the other is that it increases the moisture content inside the peanuts.

, which makes the peanuts less crispy. Sometimes, streamlining some production procedures will make the ingredients more delicious.
