Kacang garing Sichobuk adalah kacang kulit yang disangrai sampai garing dengan memakai pasir. Nama kacang garing Sichobuk berawal dari nama Dusun Sichobuk yang ada di Tarutung, Tapanuli Utara. Itu penyebab warga lokal kerap mengatakan sebagai kacang Tarutung.
Kacang Sichobuk mudah didapat bahkan juga dapat didapat di penjual kaki lima khususnya di jalan lintas Sumatera di wilayah Silangkitang. https://resepresto.com/ Plastik kacang Sichobuk warna menguasai merah putih jadi kamu tidak akan salah beli.
