Boiled peanuts!
Super common in Vietnam. And from Iโve learned from Stephen Colbert also common in the south.
Now you probably mean this in the American way, but omfg boiled masala peanut salad???? I could eat that shit for days and never get sick of it
I do mean it in an American way but also boiled peanuts masala salad sounds right the fuck up my alley.
If you ever get the chance, do try it. It's an incredibly refreshing and pleasant dish
Now that's the first time I've ever heard about eating peanuts boiled!
I've had them in Nigeria where you basically just boil them peeled in salt water and then mix into freshly boiled rice and eat it with some type of beef stew as a main course, and in China where you boil them with their shell in a mixture of water with black tea leaves, dried chillies, Sichuan peppers and salt, then let them cool down and eat as a snack.
It is a big thing in the southern US. They're really tasty.
Yes, they are super tasty! My parents grew up in the state of Georgia. But I moved to California as an adult and no one here has even heard of them. I get strange looks when I make them (homemade is best!) but I force people to try them and I've never had a single person or walk away impressed.
