Ingredients

400 g — raw shelled food-grade peanuts
2 g — fine salt

Preparation

Sort peanuts and discard damaged or suspect nuts.

Spread one layer on a dry tray.

Roast at 160°C for 18–22 minutes, stirring several times.

Cool a nut before testing: it should be roasted through, not bitter.

Cool the batch completely uncovered; rub off skins if desired.

Salt lightly if wanted and close in a clean container only when cool.
