Peanuts

Although peanut trees in Santorini seemed to have declined paying the price for touristic development, Yannis Nomikos and his model craft enterprise Agroktima, located in Vothonas, brought Santorinian peanuts back again to the island products’ list in 2006. Parched and very mature in taste, they are sun-dried twice –once before and once after being salted– and are sold in packages at the island’s supermarkets.
