Raw Peanuts (Sinaai)

These are raw peanuts, listed on our shelf as peanut sinaai, sold loose by the kilo. Peanuts are a staple in many Lebanese kitchens. Raw peanuts are commonly roasted at home in the oven or in a pan, then salted or spiced to taste and served as a snack. They are also used in cooking and baking, ground into a homemade paste or peanut butter, added to sweets and desserts, or sprinkled over rice and other dishes for crunch. You can find them at Dekenet Al Nes in Baaqline, in the Chouf. We are a package-free grocery store and a solidarity initiative, so we encourage customers to bring their own jars, bags or containers and fill only the amount they need, which helps cut down on plastic and single-use packaging.
