Rani Peanuts, Raw Whole With Skin (uncooked, unsalted) 80oz (5lbs) 2.27kg Bulk ~ All Natural | Vegan | Kosher | Gluten Friendly | Fresh Product of USA ~ Spanish Grade Groundnut/Red-skin

These premium shelled/dried/raw "Spanish" peanuts are such a wonderful, very affordable alternative to the in-shell, "green" [fresh] versions. It's impossible to buy green/fresh peanuts in my region of U.S. I love Valencia peanuts for boiling. However, they're super expensive & only available for shipping from one company in New Mexico. That vendor charges a lot more in shipping than the actual peanuts are worth - yikes!! Thus, Amazon Prime free shipping rocks yet again. I couldn't be more pleased with the substitution of these Spanish peanuts for the Valencias. I have a new fave! I don't review a lot of my Amazon purchases, but I felt compelled to do so for this product. After my Google deep dive: 1) with no real data, for using raw, de-shelled peanuts as boiling peanuts & 2) no recipes found for these...I am thrilled that I took the gamble on buying this product. This Rani 5 lb bag arrived super fresh, very clean, skins & pnuts were intact (not a bunch of broken pieces or missing skins) & pest free. The heavy duty bag was well sealed & also intact. I was pleasantly surprised with the quality - wonderful bargain for the price. I have been so desperate for easily available boiled pnuts since leaving the south. I had no alternative but to buy the canned "Peanut Patch" brand. They are so expensive, and the quality is terribly lacking - 60% of the can is broken & so mushy you can't eat them. I'll never have to buy Peanut Patch brand ever again - yaay! I am thrilled that my scouring of Google, and being dissatisfied with that research, resulted in my trying this Rani brand. I winged it on the “boiled” recipe, but my 1st batch turned out so great. I've made traditional shell-on boiled pnuts before, so I just guesstimated the salt content & closely monitored the cook time/resulting texture desired. My first attempt using these de-shelled peanuts resulted in TOTAL PERFECTION. I'm sure they'll be lovely for any other recipes, dry roasting, brittle, etc. I am so happy with this Rani brand that next time I will buy the 10 lb bag they offer (slightly reduced $.02/oz.), instead of the 5 lb bag.

Great as the arrive - and, easy to Roast on my own, too Gently, at a low temperature - lightly salted for the more familiar flavor A light dusting of popcorn salt if you so desire

Great value for the price! Bought these for our crows at work and they love them. Already threw away the bag they came in but pic should give an idea of size/texture. Container in pic is mine, these came in a bag.

Great peanuts. Love the taste. I highly recommend this.

My husband makes the best roasted peanuts with them.

The product I usually buy was unavailable so I purchased this. This was a little more expensive & packaging was not as sturdy, but quality is just as good as what I usually buy!

I usually roast these peanuts in a black iron skillet on my stove top, but I've recently discovered that I can roast them in small batches in the microwave. Nice! if I only roast a quarter cup at a time, I only eat a quarter cup at a time, LOL. Great peanuts for eating out of hand and for cooking.

These are the perfect peanut to use when making peanut brittle. It lasts for a long time when refrigerated.

Full of moth larvae, so not good

A good quantity at a good price! I actually bought these as a treat for the squirrels in my yard but having tried some myself I find them quite flavourful and good! I suspect they would be great addition to any recipe or as a snack! I will be purchasing again!!…

Item, fresh and as described. It arrives on time

These peanuts were bought for squirrels feed. Neither the squirrels or birds will eat them I’ve never had this problem before.

Excellent product
