Nuts addiction

[SandyDown]

I didn’t check out the ingredients in a big bag of pistachio nuts I once bought and it turned out they were unsalted (maybe ingredients should list things not there too). Ikk, I found them a bit plain without salt so decided to rectify the situation with some simmering in saturated salt solution, for half an hour. That was the easy part. Getting them dry in a reasonable amount of time turned out to be trickier and they remained a bit soggy until all gone Perhaps in hindsight I’d have been better off shelling them first.

Lawd, roasting nuts means roasting nuts... what you need to do (with shelled nuts) is add a drop of water or two just to make the salt stick, add salt as desired (I add a lot) then roast it but stir every few minutes... I don't roast in the oven I just put them in a frying pan add drop of water salt, and keep stirring the pan till the nuts are nice and roasty, hot roasted nuts are delicious.

Had to laugh

Got given a can of Merlot flavoured roasted peanuts for Xmas, and a label on the back said "warning may contain peanuts".

I'm going to take a picture an post it on my blog, when I get around to it.

You got no hope mate, been a nut addict all my life…

Sometimes I manage to lessen the addiction if I get raw nuts (not roasted/salted ones) … mind you sometimes I buy the raw nuts then roast it and salt it at home heheh..

Btw: have you tried M&S this Xmas nuts luxury selection (there is one with Thyme flavouring but the plain salted/roasted is very very good) OMG OMG, it’s the best nuts I’ve ever ever tasted, don’t understand how they got them to be so crunchy.. at the beginning I suspected they added potatoes starch or something to lightly coat them and make them extra crunchy and light, but read the ingredients and no such thing, 100% pure nuts…. I can really really recommend those if you like your nuts
