Peanuts are available in the supermarkets and grocery stores all year round in airtight

packets It is available in different forms like shelled unshelled roasted salted etc

treated with a number of chemicals to loosen their skins making them unfit for consumption

colour

Make sure there is no evidence of moisture or insect damage and they donrsquot rattle when you

shake them

Avoid buying shriveled shelled nuts as this indicates the peanutrsquos age Peanutrsquos shell should

be brittle and should come off easily

peanuts as soon as possible

Selection and Storage

Peanuts are available in the supermarkets and grocery stores all year round in airtight

packets It is available in different forms like shelled unshelled roasted salted etc

Buying unshelled peanuts is any day better than the processed ones as processed nuts are

treated with a number of chemicals to loosen their skins making them unfit for consumption

When buying raw unshelled peanuts ensure that the pod of peanut is compact and cream in

colour

Make sure there is no evidence of moisture or insect damage and they donrsquot rattle when you

shake them

Avoid buying shriveled shelled nuts as this indicates the peanutrsquos age Peanutrsquos shell should

be brittle and should come off easily

Unshelled groundnuts can be placed in a cool and dark place for many months whereas

shelled ones can be stored inside an airtight container for years

Since peanuts have high oil content it can lead to quick breakdown when left at room

temperature for a long time You can store peanuts at room temperature but they are best

httpwwwstylecrazecomarticlesamazing-health-benefits-of-peanuts 1221

temperature for a long time You can store peanuts at room temperature but they are best

stored in refrigerator to maintain its freshness and prolong its shelf life The low water content

in peanut will prevent it from freezing

Peanuts should not be chopped before storing

Peanuts turn chewy and soggy and eventually turn rancid with time if not stored properly

Ensure that they donrsquot have a distinctively ldquooffrdquo odour before using them as the odour

indicates that they have become rancid

You can store peanuts in glass or plastic container and zip lock bags

Peanuts tend to absorb odour easily so keep them away from other pungent or smelly food

Roasting peanuts decrease their shelf life by bringing out their oil So consume roasted

peanuts as soon as possible

vitamins to keep them strong and healthy

Selection and Storage

Peanuts are available in the supermarkets and grocery stores all year round in airtight

packets It is available in different forms like shelled unshelled roasted salted etc

Buying unshelled peanuts is any day better than the processed ones as processed nuts are

treated with a number of chemicals to loosen their skins making them unfit for consumption

When buying raw unshelled peanuts ensure that the pod of peanut is compact and cream in

colour

Make sure there is no evidence of moisture or insect damage and they donrsquot rattle when you

shake them

Avoid buying shriveled shelled nuts as this indicates the peanutrsquos age Peanutrsquos shell should

be brittle and should come off easily

Unshelled groundnuts can be placed in a cool and dark place for many months whereas

shelled ones can be stored inside an airtight container for years

Since peanuts have high oil content it can lead to quick breakdown when left at room

temperature for a long time You can store peanuts at room temperature but they are best

stored in refrigerator to maintain its freshness and prolong its shelf life The low water content

in peanut will prevent it from freezing

Peanuts should not be chopped before storing

Peanuts turn chewy and soggy and eventually turn rancid with time if not stored properly

Ensure that they donrsquot have a distinctively ldquooffrdquo odour before using them as the odour

indicates that they have become rancid

You can store peanuts in glass or plastic container and zip lock bags

Peanuts tend to absorb odour easily so keep them away from other pungent or smelly food

Roasting peanuts decrease their shelf life by bringing out their oil So consume roasted

peanuts as soon as possible

Peanuts are versatile nuts and with little imagination you can incorporate this healthy legume easily

in your daily diet Now that you the know the benefits of eating peanuts here are plenty of ways in

which you can utilize peanut in your cooking

amount of saturated fat which makes them a perfect diet food

common side effects of peanuts Those who are allergic to peanuts should stay away from it (23)

Peanut Benefits Of Hair

27 Peanuts contain several hair friendly nutrients that are beneficial for maintaining healthy hair It

contains a high level of omega 3 fatty acids which strengthens scalp health and hair follicles to

promote hair growth (24)

28 Peanut is an excellent source of larginine an amino acid which is very helpful for treating male

pattern baldness and to encourage the growth of healthy hair It also improves the health of artery

walls and prevents blood clotting to improve blood flow A proper blood flow throughout the body

and hair is imperative to get healthy and strong hair

29 Deficiency in vitamin E can lead to brittle and weak hair which can easily break Including

proper level of vitamin E in your diet ensures that the hair roots receive a rich supply of hair healthy

vitamins to keep them strong and healthy

Selection and Storage

Peanuts are available in the supermarkets and grocery stores all year round in airtight

packets It is available in different forms like shelled unshelled roasted salted etc

Buying unshelled peanuts is any day better than the processed ones as processed nuts are

treated with a number of chemicals to loosen their skins making them unfit for consumption

When buying raw unshelled peanuts ensure that the pod of peanut is compact and cream in

colour

Make sure there is no evidence of moisture or insect damage and they donrsquot rattle when you

shake them

Avoid buying shriveled shelled nuts as this indicates the peanutrsquos age Peanutrsquos shell should

be brittle and should come off easily

Unshelled groundnuts can be placed in a cool and dark place for many months whereas

shelled ones can be stored inside an airtight container for years

Since peanuts have high oil content it can lead to quick breakdown when left at room

temperature for a long time You can store peanuts at room temperature but they are best

temperature for a long time You can store peanuts at room temperature but they are best

stored in refrigerator to maintain its freshness and prolong its shelf life The low water content

in peanut will prevent it from freezing

Peanuts should not be chopped before storing

Peanuts turn chewy and soggy and eventually turn rancid with time if not stored properly

Ensure that they donrsquot have a distinctively ldquooffrdquo odour before using them as the odour

indicates that they have become rancid

You can store peanuts in glass or plastic container and zip lock bags

Peanuts tend to absorb odour easily so keep them away from other pungent or smelly food

Roasting peanuts decrease their shelf life by bringing out their oil So consume roasted

peanuts as soon as possible

Usage

Peanuts are versatile nuts and with little imagination you can incorporate this healthy legume easily

in your daily diet Now that you the know the benefits of eating peanuts here are plenty of ways in

which you can utilize peanut in your cooking

Boiling peanut is a method of peanut preparation which is prevalent in America

Wash the peanuts thoroughly and soak in water for 1 hour

Take 200 ml of water and add 1 teaspoon of salt to it

Add a handful of peanuts and let it boil for 1 hour

Boiled peanuts taste extremely delicious and are quite addictive These are very healthy as they

boost the disease fighting compounds by almost four times Moreover they contain just a little

amount of saturated fat which makes them a perfect diet food

Because of their high protein content peanuts are processed into a variety of forms including

butter oil flour and flakes Peanut oil is used extensively for cooking and for preparing margarine

It is extracted from shelled and crushed peanuts by applying hydraulic pressure

Peanut flour is made from peanuts which are blanched and then electronically sorted to select the

highest quality peanuts The nuts are then roasted and are processed to obtain low fat flour This
