Where to find ingredients

- Combine all ingredients in a large heavy-bottomed pot, as the baking powder will cause the mixture to foam significantly.
- Stir continuously using a wooden spoon.
- Continue cooking until the syrup crystallizes and no longer sticks to the sides of the pan.
- Spread the coated peanuts evenly onto a large baking tray.
- Place the tray into a preheated oven to finish roasting.
