As a well-known Chinese style cookie of Xiamen, Peanut Crisp uses peanut kernels and granulated sugar as major raw materials. To make it, firstly stir-fry and de-coat the peanut kernels, mix with sugar and boil them, then ground them into crisp, roll and pull them in shape, and slice them to small pieces. To serve it, carefully open the wrapping paper, and slightly put the crisp in the mouth; it melts quickly with agreeable sweetness and the aroma lingering in the mouth. Peanut Crisp not only can be taken together with tea, but also can be the stuff of salty “Kompia” (a delicacy made with flour, baked in an oven and eaten either with or without meat) and other cookies. |
