Processing craft of coated peanuts
Although there are many types and flavors of coated peanuts, their processing methods are basically the same. Usually, the coated peanut making machine is used to produce coated peanuts through raw material selection, peanut coating, frying, seasoning, and packaging.
- Use small peanuts of uniform size to make coated peanuts as appropriate. It is also necessary to ensure that the peanuts are free from pests and intact.
- When using an automatic coating machine to coat peanuts, first coat the peanuts with a layer of syrup. Then coat the peanuts that have been coated in syrup with a layer of powder.
- Fry the powdered peanuts with a fryer. The frying temperature is more appropriate at 160℃-170℃. Be careful not to stir frequently when frying.
- Do not season the coated peanuts immediately after frying. After frying, the coated peanuts can be properly cooled before being seasoned with a seasoning machine.
- After seasoning, the coated peanuts need to be cooled to room temperature before they can be packaged by the packaging machine.
