Peanut sugar

During the Spring Festival, when we visit relatives and friends, we always need to prepare some sweets at home. Peanut candy is easy to make. I also think it's healthier than the candy bought outside with a pile of things added. So we made some special preparations.

Cooking Steps
Step1:Wash the peanuts and put them in the pot and fry them over low heat.
Step2:To the extent shown in the figure, it will take another 5 minutes or so to stir fry very quickly - the men who want biceps will wave your arms.
Step3:Put the fried peanuts into a cool place, knead them to the red clothes, pick them out and fry them. Put them into a food bag and press them into small pieces with a rolling pin.
Step4:Put a pot on the stove. Put a small bowl of cold boiled water beside the pot. Put the sugar in the pot and stir over low heat. Use chopsticks to quickly move it from all around to the center. (don't make a big move at this time. Concentrate the sugar on the bottom of the pot as much as possible. Then the syrup will concentrate.)
Step5:To the extent as shown in the picture, use chopsticks to quickly circle and stir until all the sugar melts. Then take one of the chopsticks and put it into the cold water prepared by the side. If the sugar on the chopsticks is crisp, turn off the fire and pour out the peanuts immediately. (this step is very important. The syrup is sticky, brittle and bitter for a few seconds. Be sure to grasp the time.)
Step6:Quickly stir the peanuts in the pan. Dip all the peanuts in syrup as fast as you can and try to keep them together.
Step7:The mixture of syrup and peanuts can be stirred into a lump to make it out of the pot. Some of them will stick to the pot and then write how to clean them.
Step8:Pour the mixture on the cutting board and roll it with a rolling pin into a moderately thick piece.
Step9:When it's hot, cut it into small pieces with a knife and let it cool slightly.
Step10:Put the cool peanut sugar into a clean box for preservation. It can be stored directly at room temperature in the unheated area.
Step11:Clean up the pot - pour water into the pot and boil it without syrup. The sugar melts directly in the water. The very high part of the water after boiling tilt pot and so on saccharification.
Cooking tips:1. When frying peanuts, it is necessary to turn over the heat quickly. On the one hand, it can prevent frying as much as possible. On the other hand, it is conducive to even heating. 2. Steps 5 to 9 need to be completed in one go. Timing is very important. 3. Step 8 the heat-resistant food bag I use is wrapped with peanut sugar. The main reason is that my chopping board is not raw or cooked. If there is a special chopping board for cutting fruits or vegetables, it is not needed. It will not stick to it. 4. Peanut sugar must be hot. When it's cool, it will be broken. When it's flat, it won't stick together when it's cool. Then it can be stored. 5. Peanuts can be replaced by any other nuts. Sesame sugar is also delicious. The same way. 6. Nuts are a little high in calories. Please take some. There are skills in making delicious dishes.
