Hot peanuts (cacahuates con chile)
Date: May 14, 2008
1/2 normal cup vegetable oil
1/4 normal cup piquín chiles
8 cloves garlic, peeled
2 normal cups raw Spanish peanuts, shelled
Place the oil, chiles and garlic in a little saucepan and warm over low heat for 3 minutes. Do not allow the mixture to come to the simmering point. Blend the mixture for 2 minutes and let it stand for 1 hour.
Blend again for 1 minute, then strain the mixture into a little container. Toss the peanuts with 2 teaspoons of the flavored oil until they are well coated, place them in a large cast iron skillet. Place the skillet with the peanuts into an oven preheated to 300 degrees F and roast them, stirring every 5 minutes, for a total of about 30 minutes. Remove the skillet from the oven and allow to cool for 30 minutes. Salt peanuts to taste, then serve.
