How to keep the rest
To maintain their crispness, store any remaining coated peanuts in an airtight container at room temperature. Keep them away from direct sunlight and moisture, which can cause the coating to become sticky or the nuts to lose their crunch. Proper storage ensures they remain enjoyable for future snacking.
