Peanuts

Thai: ???????? (tua li-song)

Peanuts are used in a few dishes. The most popular of which are Som Tum and Massaman Curry. It’s easiest to purchase pre-roasted peanuts, but make sure they are “dry-roasted” and unsalted.

Storage: Peanuts (and natural peanut butter) get a funny smell when they’re old, usually after about a month or so. If they smell funny, ditch them and get fresh ones.
