Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 500 grams raw peanuts
- 25 grams wasabi powder
- 2 tablespoons gluten-free soy sauce
- 1 tablespoon rice vinegar
- 1 tablespoon coconut sugar
- 2 tablespoons cornstarch
- 1 tablespoon sesame oil
- 0.5 teaspoon sea salt
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a mixing bowl, combine the wasabi powder, gluten-free soy sauce, rice vinegar, coconut sugar, and sesame oil. Stir until smooth.
Add the raw peanuts to the bowl and toss until they are thoroughly coated with the wasabi mixture.
Sprinkle the cornstarch over the coated peanuts and toss again to ensure an even coating. This helps the wasabi mixture adhere to the peanuts.
Spread the coated peanuts evenly on the prepared baking sheet in a single layer to ensure they roast evenly.
Sprinkle the sea salt over the peanuts before placing them in the oven.
Bake the peanuts in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, stirring halfway through to ensure even cooking.
Once the peanuts are golden and crispy, remove them from the oven and let them cool completely on the baking sheet.
Store the cooled wasabi peanuts in an airtight container at room temperature for up to two weeks.
