First of all, we prepare a proper amount of peanuts and soak them in clean water for about 10 minutes. The purpose of soaking is twofold. One is to remove dust, bacteria and other impurities on the surface of peanuts, and the other is to ensure that peanuts are heated evenly during frying.
Put peanuts into a pot, add 2 grams of salt, add the bottom flavor of peanuts, and then stir well with chopsticks.
Beat in another egg, stir it with chopsticks, and then stir it well.
After mixing well, add a little corn starch, and the starch must be evenly wrapped around the peanuts, so as not to stick.
Let's start frying peanuts: pour cooking oil into the pan and wait until the oil temperature is 40% hot, that is, when the oil level is calm and there is a slight smoke in the pan.
Use a colander to control the excess starch from peanuts, then pour peanuts into the oil pan and stir gently with a spoon to make the peanuts evenly heated to avoid sticking together.
In this process, we have to turn on a small fire and let the oil temperature rise slowly, about 4 to 5 minutes. At this time, we will hear a slight cracking sound of peanuts, which is becoming more and more dense. At this time, we can take the peanuts out and control the oil for later use.
Let's start to boil the sugar juice: add half a spoonful of water to the pot and one spoonful of sugar.
Turn on a small fire, stir constantly with a spoon, and slowly melt the sugar. As the heated sugar water evaporates, the concentration of sugar water becomes higher and higher, and it becomes smoother from the feeling of thin sand, and the color changes from white to light yellow.
When there are a lot of bubbles in the sugar juice, stir the spoon quickly. At this time, the sugar juice will become more and more viscous, and the big bubbles will gradually turn into small bubbles. At this time, it is close to the state of wire drawing, which is a good time to pour peanuts. Earlier and later will cause frosting failure.
Therefore, the heat is very important, and the timing should be well grasped. After pouring peanuts, you should turn them quickly with a spatula.
Wrap the sugar juice evenly, turn it with a shovel as the temperature drops, and the sugar juice will slowly turn into white powdered sugar, and the peanut skin will slowly turn white. At this time, the frosting will be successful, and after turning it evenly, it can be served out of the pot.
Ok, here we are, this sweet and crispy peanut with frosting is ready. It can be used as a dish or a snack. Adults and children love it. If you learn it, please cook it for your family.
