Peanuts are part of the legume family, so are more closely related to beans and lentils then they are to nuts. Often roasted and used to make peanut butters but they are a popular snack on their own.
Australian Peanuts (Roasted Salted) – Bulk
$1.70 – $16.95
Description
Peanuts are a high source of protein and healthy fats, but have a high calorific value, so should be consumed in moderation.
Roasted peanuts are a great snack by themselves but can be incorporated into both sweet and savoury dishes. Chopped and crushed they can be added to biscuits, brownies, slices, granolas or just sprinkled over ice cream.
You could make your own fresh peanut butter so simply add to a stir-fry or satay dish.
Storage: Store in an airtight container in a cool, dry spot away from direct sunlight.
Roasted peanuts are a product of Australia.
