Menguy’s Cacahuètes Grillées Salées


A little 40g packet of salted peanuts came free with our hotel room near Reims in north west France last year. A very little packet. Remember that a 40g packet of crisps or crispy snacks contains a lot more than a 40g packet of much heavier peanuts.

The Chef tried this packet without sharing, and tells me these peanuts are not salty enough. And a bit hard. He wasn’t very impressed.

There are little people shapes on the packet looking energetic, so perhaps this is supposed to be a healthy option. Honestly, I think it better to eat a small quantity of something tasty and properly prepared than a tiny portion of a healthy option that doesn’t taste good. But obviously that’s up to you.
