If you want to use blanched peanuts regularly, you must know how to roast them first.
It is not a big deal, you can do it at your home so easily.
blanched peanuts
Nothing rivals the savory, salty crunch of a handful of roasted peanuts during the summer.
For celebrations and holiday events, roasted peanuts are ideal since they have a stronger taste than raw peanuts.
Some baked items can even absorb their taste from them.
Believe it or not, roasting your peanuts is fun and easy.
By following a few simple steps, you may quickly and simply create this Southern delicacy at home.
Ingredients
- Shelled or unshelled peanuts (as many as you wish)
- Salt, as desired (optional)
- Extra seasoning, if desired (optional)
- Choose between peanuts with and without shells.
- Both types of peanuts may be roasted using somewhat identical techniques.
- Before start, beat it in your mind:
- Since the shells have already been removed, shelled peanuts are simpler to utilize in recipes for peanut butter and baked goods.
Use Spanish peanuts, which have more oil, to make peanut butter.
You can start by removing the peanuts' shells with your fingers, but doing so after roasting is much simpler.
- To remove any more debris, carefully wash peanuts in their shells in cold water.
- After five minutes of air drying on a wire rack, pat dry with a paper towel.
On a baking sheet or cookie sheet, spread the peanuts out.
The peanuts must be spread out in a single layer to ensure even roasting.
Boil the peanuts in batches if there are too many to fit in a single layer.
Line the baking pan with aluminum foil or parchment paper to make cleaning simpler.
However, unlike other recipes, this step is not essential since the peanuts won't stick to the surface.
In a preheated oven, bake the peanuts at 350°F (177°C).
Put the baking sheet or tray on the oven's middle rack.
This process will make them cook evenly all the way through.

Set a timer and unwind while the peanuts cook without having to stir them.
The roasting time will change depending on the type of peanut being used: For 15 to 20 minutes, cook peanuts in their shells.
Cook peanuts for 20 to 25 minutes in their shells.
Exit the oven with the nuts.
When you take the peanuts out of the oven, they will still be roasting.
Due to the heat of both the dish and the peanuts, caution is suggested (especially shelled peanuts).
The tray should be placed in a safe area where it can cool, like on top of the stove.
