About Peanuts (Whole)
Remove the shells, pour the kernels loosely and level the top without crushing them. If chopping is specified after measuring, start with the whole kernels rather than a cup already full of small pieces.
Raw, roasted, salted and coated peanuts are different recipe inputs. Check the product before folding it into dough; the gram amount cannot account for added salt, sugar or a flavoured coating.
Tips for measuring Peanuts (Whole)
- Use plain kernels when the recipe asks for plain peanuts.
- Keep shells out of the weighed portion.
Common mistakes
- Treating a salted snack mix as plain baking peanuts.
