Nut-thing lasts forever, especially 'danyacha koot'

If you’re a Maharashtrian who doesn’t squirrel away a stash of what is called ‘shengadanyacha koot’/ शेंगदाण्याचा कूट in your kitchen then you need to promptly revisit your roots and get your act together. What’s the fuss about? Well, historically, a stash of roasted ground peanuts has been a sign of a well managed Maharashtrian kitchen. And for a good reason - you see - given how many dishes from the region rely upon these golden snowflakes for their masalas, a stash is de rigueur. It takes away the stress of making a batch on demand and so reduces the prep time for everyday Maharashtrian dishes. Keeping a jar of roasted ground peanut is a standard time-saving practice in most Maharashtrian households. So make a batch today and your future self will thank you many times over.
This is such a lovely post! Aai chi aathavan jhali agadi! This is still regular rite in my MIL, mother's and my kitchen as well. Have you done a post on another must-have of a Maharashtrian kitchen - the magical shengadanyachi chutney?
Amazing recipe, especially for adding taste and nutrients to our good.
