It may seem strange but peanuts grow quite easily in Japan and peanuts from Chiba are among the most famous. Peanuts in Japanese is called rakkasei \u843d\u82b1\u751f, which literally means the falling flower\u2019s life or something of the kind\u2026 because peanuts are a very intriguing plant indeed! It looks like a low pea, with nice flowers, which then stem underground, where the peanuts actually grow. My curiosity, the fact that they are local so normally adequate for the weather, and that I am slightly better at growing underground things than overground, peanuts were definitely on my list of things to grow. I did a first attempt in 2019, more or less successful, and tried again this year, more successfully. I harvested a little basket of fresh raw peanuts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

After debating about what to do with them\u2026 we usually don\u2019t eat peanuts\u2026 I decided I would simply boil them\u2026 simple enough and actually really super delicious. So here is my recipe.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
