Peanuts

Peanuts are one of nature’s most delicious and versatile snack foods and are a favorite treat to many. They are great for roasting, as an ingredient in many baked goods, candies, sauces, dips, stir fries and other foods, or just eaten plain or salted as a snack that everyone loves!

The most unique thing about peanuts is that it is not actually a nut. Peanuts grow underground and are a member of the legume family, which also includes peas, lentils and other beans. Peanuts are primarily grown for their oil, but the actual peanut is a widely popular snack across the world. They have a very strong and distinct flavor that is delicious in so many ways. It is a staple in every kitchen for baking and for its use in many recipes.

Peanut butter is also widely popular and consists of ninety percent peanuts. The other ten percent is a combination of salt, butter, oils and sugars. Try making your own by grinding the peanuts and heating them according to a recipe to for a delectable homemade spread!

Peanuts are used in candy making and baking in an almost endless amount of ways. Whether covered in chocolate and mixed with caramel, marshmallows, and sugars or baked in cookies and cakes, peanuts can be combined with many ingredients to satisfy your sweet tooth. They are perfect for mixing with dried fruits, chocolate pieces and crispy snacks and are a basic component of every collection of mixed nuts. Dry roasting peanuts are a common way to snack on them as well. No baseball game, circus or picnic is complete without eating peanuts!

Peanuts are naturally cholesterol-free and contain protein, fiber and many vitamins and minerals that are important to your diet. Just an ounce of peanuts gives you more than a quarter of the suggested daily intake of vitamin E, which has been linked to reducing the risk for heart disease. They are also high in the monosaturated fats that are great for your diet and help with weight loss.

Peanuts are hard to beat as a tasty, versatile, inexpensive and nutritious snack.
