Macadamia nuts: better tasting cold or room temperature?

[peacefuljeffrey 0]

I like them cold, and find a lackluster appreciation for them when they are room-temperature.

I'm a Cashew man myself. Do you like them salted or unsalted?

[peacefuljeffrey 0]

If you mean cashews, then only lightlly salted.
I haven't had macadamia nuts anything but salted.

Oh, you know, Mauna Loa packages a macadamia-cashew combo can now. Used to be only macadamias. The funny thing is, as much as I like each kind of nut, I like them taken separately. The flavors don't mix particularly well, in my taste.

I don't like mixing up my nuts either. I like them both ways, either salted or unsalted. Except peanuts. They have to be salted or I can't eat them. And I like them better in the shell.

How do you boil them cajun style? Is there some kind of flavoring added to the water?

My favorite ice creams have chunky things in them, and the best chunky things for ice cream are, of course, nuts.

If I get an ice cream that has great stuff in it but none of it is chunky or very crunchy at all, I take UNsalted dry roasted peanuts, place them on a paper towel on a cutting board, and crush them into tiny pieces with a rolling pin. (Amazingly, it's the rolling pin that was under the cupboard in my family's house since probably before I was born!
Yay for ice cream!

"How do you boil them cajun style? Is there some kind of flavoring added to the water"---------------------------------------One recipe>Cajun Boiled Peanuts

2lbs. of raw in shell peanuts
5 cayenne peppers fresh or dried (can substitute for jalapenos)
1 cup salt
Boil in large kettle like pot ½ filled with water, you may need to add more water from time to time Or you can pressure cook at 10lbs. of pressure for 45 min.

I feel it, when I sorrow most;

Than never to have loved at all.

If not pressure-cooking, then how long do you boil them?

Is this some kind of leftist plot to leave us hangin'?

the honey roasted mac nuts are really good

Unless some politician somewhere is contemplating a law that would make it a crime not to purchase/store/prepare/serve/eat the nuts the way HE thinks we should, why is this topic offered here?

Just wondering...

Wow this is such a a huge debate in my life, I often have arguements with others over the temp of nuts...

Sudsy Fist: i don't think i'd ever say this
Sudsy Fist: but you're looking damn sudsydoable in this

All of a sudden I am thinking pork chops in the oven with pine-apple and peanuts. It's a good thought. I like it.

You are missing the undertones. Read carefully and think.

[Trae 1]

Try frying them (in 1st cold pressed olive oil) until they just go brown and crispy.

add some salt (just a tiny bit) and yuummmmmeeeee
Otherwise chill em to keep em fresh.

Chocolate covered. Room temp or chilled doesn't matter when they're chocolate covered.

Michele, I think you're right on that one.
Those things are great. My dad gets big boxes of them at those discount bulk clubs and gives them as Christmas gifts!
