What it is

They are then lightly seasoned with sea salt, which complements the roasted taste without overpowering it. This simple preparation highlights the quality of the peanuts themselves. They are a straightforward snack option.

How it differs from similar foods
Unlike oil-roasted peanuts, dry roasting avoids added oils, resulting in a cleaner, more intense peanut flavor and a drier, crisper texture. The sea salt seasoning is typically more natural and less processed than table salt, offering a pure salty note.
