Salted peanuts

Description

Salted peanuts have an intense, slightly salty and roasted flavor with a distinct buttery nutty note; their appearance is golden-brown, shiny from natural oil, with a crunchy texture. They are a versatile snack, an excellent addition to salads, Asian dishes (e.g., sauces and stir-fries), baked goods, and as a base for peanut butter and toppings for desserts or savory dishes. Nutritionally, peanuts are calorie-dense, rich in plant protein, healthy monounsaturated and polyunsaturated fats, fiber, vitamin E, niacin, folic acid, and minerals such as magnesium and phosphorus, which support heart and metabolic function. However, attention should be paid to the salt and calorie content and the risk of allergies. Store in a dry, cool place in a sealed container; they will stay fresh longer in the refrigerator or freezer.
