BLANCHED SPLIT PEANUTS

BLANCHED SPLIT PEANUTS

The term “blanched split peanuts” refers to a particular variety of peanut that has been split in half lengthwise and had its outer skin peeled off, producing two halves of a creamy white nut. The peanuts are easier to utilize in recipes because of the splitting process, which helps to make them more uniform in size and shape. Blanched split peanuts come in two forms: Skinned and Unskinned.

• Skinned split peanuts: Split peanuts with skins are also referred to as blanched split peanuts. Skinned peanuts are two creamy white nuts that have a reddish-brown skin on the outside.
• Unskinned split peanuts: On the other hand, Unskinned peanuts, the skin is removed by blanching the peanuts in boiling water and then rubbing or peeling it off, giving the peanuts a gentler flavour and softer texture than skinned split peanuts. They are typically used for making snacks such as boiled peanuts or roasted peanuts, as well as for making peanut oil.
