Happy New Year!<\/span><\/p>\n

The Twelve Days of Christmas haven\u2019t yet expired, and Kwanzaa is still with us. So here\u2019s a savory edible gift to bring to friends during this festive season. These peanuts are just a little spicy and quite addictive.<\/span><\/p>\n

I made them recently on Mass Appeal<\/em><\/a> along with my beloved chocolate bark<\/a>. Both food offerings were popular with Seth Stutman, Lauren Zenzie, and the gang at the studio.<\/span><\/p>\n

And of course I gave them to my brother for Hanukkah\u2014or maybe Christmas. (We celebrate both, and the presents are flexible.) They went well with the cocktail ingredients that were his primary present.<\/span><\/p>\n

I wish you all a joyful and productive 2017\u2026.<\/span><\/p>\n

The Peanuts<\/span><\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n

Ingredients:<\/span><\/em><\/p>\n

a splash of canola or peanut oil
\n2 cloves garlic, finely minced
\n1 teaspoon red pepper flakes (go to 1-1\/2 or 2 if you like spice)
\n3\/4 teaspoon chili powder or Creole seasoning, plus more if needed at the end
\n1 teaspoon salt (less if using the Creole seasoning as it includes salt)
\n1 pound shelled unsalted peanuts (about 3 cups)<\/span><\/p>\n

Instructions:<\/span><\/em><\/p>\n

Preheat the oven to 250 degrees.<\/span><\/p>\n

Heat a large (preferably cast-iron) ovenproof skillet over medium heat. Pour the oil on top, and let it heat for a minute or two. Add the garlic, spices, and salt, and cook, stirring, for 1 minute.<\/span><\/p>\n

Stir in the peanuts and remove the pan from the heat. Transfer it to the oven and bake for 1 hour, stirring every 15 minutes.<\/span><\/p>\n

Remove the peanuts from the oven and spread them to cool on a cookie sheet lined with paper towels. Taste one. They won\u2019t be crunchy yet; that will happen as they cool. If they need more salt or seasoning, sprinkle it on top of them so they will absorb it as they cool.<\/span><\/p>\n

When the peanuts are cool, transfer them to an airtight container. Makes about 3 cups.<\/span><\/p>\n

And now the video! I was away from home when this segment ran so I didn\u2019t have the video to upload and embed. But it can be viewed on the Mass Appeal website<\/a>. If you stick around after the peanuts, you\u2019ll see us making the bark.<\/span><\/p>\n
