I don't know if anyone else has noticed this, but if I eat more than say a 1/2lb of roasted peanuts at one sitting I start to find them disgusting. What is it with peanuts that causes that, does anyone know?

Perhaps your manly, True Christian™ digestive system knows that 1/2 lb of good, American steak is a better source of protein?

Not that I mean to criticize, my dear. I have a distressing habit of eating large amounts of peanuts encased in chocolate. I won't name the manufacturer, because they are a liberal bastion of unfortunate wokeness. Prayer and more prayer will be needed to free myself from the grasp of my craving, or-- to free the corporate leaders of this candy company from the yoke of being woke.

Either way, beef is better.

I also like peanuts. They can be cooked into a sort of stew with beef.

I have no strong opinion about peanuts, but it makes me very uncomfortable when I hear someone pronounce it "peenits."

President Jimmy Carter was a peanut farmer. Some of his relatives are still peanut farmers around Plains, Georgia. I try not to eat peanuts.

I've never had nits. Is peanut-oil a treatment? I know people use it on their feet.

Blend some peanuts into a paste, add some yellow hot pepper (preferably Peruvian ají amarillo for a smoky flavor accent), mix with some cooked and diced chicken (using a blender on cooked chicken breast would be the nuclear option), add some milk if it's too thick or too spicy, and you have a perfect dish which can be served with rice and/or potatoes and garnished with some hard boiled eggs and olives:

That should change the flavor enough to make them tasty again.

One of my younger boys says it looks like a post-nuclear snail.

I love eating nuts of all kinds.

You say that now Brother, but I'd like to see you say it with 1/2 lb of nuts in your mouth.

For dipping vegetables or nuts, what could be better than a good serving of ssamjang? Any nut paste may be used, even soybean but I do avoid that, with accents as follow:


Peanut paste, Gochujang (see pictures below), Toasted sesame oil,
Honey, Toasted sesame seeds, Minced garlic, Onion.

Walnut/pecan paste, Gochujang, Toasted sesame oil, Honey
Toasted sesame seeds, Minced garlic, Onion.

Almond paste, Gochujang, Toasted sesame oil, Honey,
Toasted sesame seeds, Minced garlic, Onion, Apple.

Cashew paste, Gochujang, Toasted sesame oil, Honey,
Toasted sesame seeds, Minced garlic, Onion.

Hazel/cobnut paste, Sriracha (see pictures below), Toasted
sesame oil, Honey, Toasted sesame seeds, No garlic, Onion.



Gochujang - made with gochugaru well-pounded
in a terracotta mortar with a little oil and vinegar


Sriracha - as above but made with dried chilli flakes,
rapadura sugar, salt, (garlic optional)


Alternative - or may be combined with above
