Boiled Peanuts

Here in Kitsap County, WA we have a large Navy population, and that means we have a wonderful mix of people here from all over the country… those from the south hankering for a taste of home know that boiled peanuts will get you there (the rest of you are forgiven for your puzzled expression, but we know a few of you are brave enough to try a new peanut taste experience).

Ingredients

CB's raw in-shell peanuts

Water

1 cup salt

How to make boiled peanuts

Soak the raw in-shell peanuts overnight. In the morning, rinse until clean.

Place in a pot with enough water to cover the nuts by 1 to 2 inches. Add 1 cup salt.

Boil for 3 to 4 hours. Eat when they've achieved your desired consistency.

Keep them warm

Keep warm in a crock pot for up to 3 days.
