Peanuts are the "fruit of longevity", do you know the difference between eating raw peanuts and eating cooked peanuts?
Hello everyone, this is Variety Kitchen.
Peanuts are a very common nut ingredient and have the reputation of "longevity fruit".
Many people like to eat peanuts in life, not only because peanuts are very nutritious, but also because there are many ways to eat them, whether they are eaten raw or cooked, they are very delicious.
Especially for us who grew up in the countryside, peanuts are our most common kind of "snack", I remember when I was a child, every family in the village will basically grow a lot of peanuts, on the one hand, it can be used to sell money to subsidize the family, and on the other hand, because peanuts are really delicious and shelf-stable.
Many people in the village, regardless of men and women, young and old, always like to put some peanuts in their pockets, and love to peel two to eat when they are idle. I don't know if you have such memories when you were a child?
Back to today's theme, some people like to eat raw peanuts, especially fresh peanuts just pulled out of the ground, they taste crisp and sweet, many people love to eat, remember when we were young, the peanuts at home were ripe, and we would eat them while harvesting flowers in the ground, and peeling them out with soil to eat that is called a fragrant.
However, some friends like to eat cooked peanuts, for example, my aunt likes to eat cooked peanuts, she thinks that cooked peanuts taste better and are more nutritious to digest.
So which one is the right way to eat raw peanuts and cooked peanuts? Which way is more nutritious? Many people have always been mistaken.
First of all, we have no doubt that peanuts are indeed a particularly nutritious nut.
And peanuts are particularly rich in protein, vitamin B1, vitamin B2, as well as vitamin E, vitamin K and unsaturated fatty acids, etc., which are extremely nutritious, and regular consumption has many benefits for the human body.
So is it more nutritious to eat raw peanuts or cooked peanuts? Of course, eating raw peanuts is more nutritious than eating cooked peanuts!
After the peanuts are cooked, there are many nutrients in them, because they will lose some of them due to the influence of high temperatures, especially the unsaturated fatty acids in them will also be affected to a certain extent, so in comparison, the nutrition of raw peanuts is higher than that of cooked peanuts.
Therefore, if you are purely pursuing nutrition, then it is recommended to eat raw peanuts. But in real life, many friends will feel uncomfortable in their stomachs after eating raw peanuts. Then people like this are not recommended to eat raw peanuts.
However, whether it is raw peanuts or cooked peanuts, its nutritional value cannot be ignored, and the nutritional difference between raw and cooked peanuts is not particularly large, so when we choose to eat raw peanuts or cooked peanuts, we must choose according to our own physical conditions, and it must vary from person to person. Otherwise, even if the nutritious things are not suitable for you, it will backfire after eating.
And the cooked peanuts mentioned here are not the common fried peanuts in life, fried peanuts, etc., although these peanuts are cooked, but it is particularly easy to get angry if you eat too much, and the oil content is also very high, especially for our middle-aged and elderly people, we must have less oil, eat more of this peanuts is not beneficial to the body, so it is not recommended for our middle-aged and elderly friends to eat, so as not to cause unnecessary burden to the body.
So what kind of cooked peanuts are the best for our middle-aged and elderly people to eat? Next, I will share with you some particularly delicious cooked peanuts.
Prepare an appropriate amount of peanuts and wash them twice with water to wash off the dust on the surface.
Then add water to soak the peanuts for 20 minutes, if it is fresh peanuts, there is no need to soak here, like the dried peanuts we bought, we must soak it for 20 minutes first, soak it soft, soak.
After soaking, put the peanuts into the pot, add enough water, cover the pot and turn on the heat, boil the inside of the pot, turn to medium-low heat and cook for 40 minutes, cook the peanuts until soft. Cook it for 40 minutes like I do, so it tastes just soft and hard, and if you like to eat something softer, you can cook it for an hour.
The next time to prepare a little celery, here you can buy celery to buy at home, remove the leaves, do not dry clean the celery and cut it into small pieces.
It's best to keep it in the plate for later use.
Before preparing a carrot, peel off the skin of the carrot, first cut into thick slices, then cut into this thick strip, and then cut into small particles, the size of the particles is about the size of peanuts.
Prepare a pot of boiling water in this pot, add a little salt, add a few drops of cooking oil, stir with a spoon, pour in the celery and diced carrots and blanch for 1 minute.
Put the diced carrots and greens in the cold water for a while, so that the color is more green and the taste is crisp and delicious.
Friends who like to eat garlic, you can prepare a little damage here, and you don't need to prepare what I don't like.
At this time, the peanuts in the pot have been cooked, and the water control takes them out and puts them in a larger bowl.
Then add diced carrots and celery, add a spoonful of salt, a spoonful of chicken essence, a little sesame oil, a little light soy sauce, a little balsamic vinegar, and wear disposable gloves on your hands, grasp and mix evenly.
The cold peanuts that come out of this way are super delicious whether they are used as snacks or as a side dish. The peanut rice flour inside is glutinous and delicious, and the celery and carrots are crisp and flavorful. It's really delicious, and this practice is very healthy, especially celery contains crude fiber, and carrots are also a very nutritious ingredient.
In addition to this way of eating peanuts, we can also use fresh peanuts in the shell, put it in the pot, add some large ingredients such as eight, horn incense, leaf cinnamon, salt, and then add enough water, boil for an hour and a half, and make boiled peanuts.
After cooking, let it dry under the sun to dry the water vapor, which can be stored for a long time.
For example, our family will take out a part of fresh peanuts to make boiled peanuts every peanut harvest season, and then put them under the sun to dry for a few days, and the moisture in them can be stored for more than half a year after being fully dried, and they can also be eaten during the New Year.
Especially for friends who are usually used to drinking a little wine, it is really pleasant to grab a large amount of boiled peanuts with a glass Xi of wine every day.
