Pairing principles
What pairs well with Peanut?
Peanut supports chocolate and honey in sweet work and chilli, lime, ginger, soy, coconut and tamarind in savoury sauces. Chicken and cucumber provide protein and fresh texture, but roast intensity and salt must be controlled so the peanut does not flatten aromatic detail.
