BOILED PEANUTS

Time 4h35m

Yield approximately 4 pounds in shell and 2 pounds out of shell

Number Of Ingredients 3

Ingredients

2 pounds in-shell raw Virginia or Valencia peanuts
3 ounces kosher salt
3 gallons water

Steps:

Wash the peanuts in cool water until the water runs clear. Soak in cool water for 30 minutes to loosen any remaining dirt.
Drain and rinse the peanuts. Add the peanuts to a 12-quart pot along with the salt and 3 gallons of water. Stir well. Cover and cook on high for 4 hours. Check the texture of the peanut at this point for doneness. When done, boiled peanuts should have a similar texture to a cooked dry bean. It should hold its shape, but not crunch when bitten. Add more water throughout the cooking process, if needed. If necessary, continue cooking for 3 to 4 hours longer.
Drain the peanuts and store in a covered container in the refrigerator for up to 1 week.
*Cook's note: The cooking time can vary greatly depending on how fresh the peanuts are. The fresher the peanut, the less time it will take to cook.

Time 5m

Number Of Ingredients 5

Ingredients

24 oz raw peanuts in shell
1/2 c salt
4 tsp red pepper flakes
2 tsp Cajun seasoning
water

Steps:

1. Mix seasonings with 4 cups hot water until salt is dissolved in Cock Pot. Add the raw peanuts in the shell to the mixture and fill the Crock Pot to full with hot water.
2. Cook 24 hours on high, check the peanuts to see that they are soft, and then on low for 24 hours (this is not a typo - 48 hours total allows them to soften and absorb the seasonings), keeping an eye on your water level. You will need to check your peanuts and adjust the time accordingly because all Crock Pots heat differently. I fill the crockpot with water every 8-10 hours to keep the water level full.

A true Southern delicacy - boiled green peanuts.

Provided by Lana Stuart

Categories Snacks

Time 5h10m

Number Of Ingredients 3

Ingredients

1 gallon cleaned green peanuts
1/2 cup salt (do not faint - most of it gets discarded)
Water

Steps:

Wash the peanuts well to make sure all the dirt is dislodged. I usually fill the sink, dump the peanuts in and agitate them.
Place the peanuts in a very large pot and add water to cover the peanuts by 1 inch or more.
Add salt and stir well. Remember that a huge amount of the salt gets discarded with the cooking brine.
Bring it all to a boil, then reduce the heat to a simmer, cover and cook until done. Start testing for doneness after about 4 hours. The peanuts should have a soft, but not mushy, texture. Cook longer if needed. Sometimes it takes 6 or more hours for the peanuts to cook.
After the peanuts are done, drain the brine and store the peanuts in the refrigerator. Don't let them sit in the brine as they'll become too salty.

CLASSIC BOILED PEANUTS RECIPE - SOUTHERN LIVING

Total Time 14 hrs 10 mins

Place 2 gallons of water in a 10- to 12-quart stockpot. Add 1/2 cup of the salt to water; stir until salt dissolves. Add raw peanuts. (Skip this step if you are using green peanuts.) Use a large dinner plate to help submerge the floating peanuts. Soak peanuts 8 hours or overnight. (This step saves a little time boiling, but if you don’t have the luxury of soaking time, you can skip it.)
Drain soaking water; add 2 gallons water and 1 cup salt to peanuts. (Note level of water on side of pot.) Bring to a boil over high. Reduce heat to low. Simmer, covered, until peanuts are as soft as roasted chestnuts or softer, 5 to 8 hours (2 to 3 hours for green peanuts), keeping water in pot within an inch or so of its original level with regular additions of water. After peanuts have boiled 3 hours (1 hour for green peanuts), sample them to check their texture and salinity. Remove a peanut, and wait until it is cool enough to handle. Open the shell, and give the peanut a chew, slurping some brine with it. If it crunches, cook it more. If the brine lacks salt, add more by 1/4-cup amounts. If it is too salty, remove some of the water, and replace with the same volume of fresh water. Allow an hour for the salinity to equalize before testing again. Sample peanuts every hour until they are pleasantly yielding and as salty and appetizing as a good pickle.
When peanuts are cooked, remove from heat, and let them cool in the pot 1 hour (20 minutes for green peanuts). When cool enough to handle, drain and eat. Or store in the shell, in a sealed container, in the refrigerator 7 to 10 days or in the freezer several months.

Add the nuts to a large dutch oven or stock-pot over high heat and cover with water by at least 2 inches.
When the nuts come to a boil, reduce the heat to medium-low and simmer covered for anywhere from 2-3 hours. (Small, immature just harvested nuts will cook faster than older, larger nuts. Around 2 1/2 hours seems to be the average cooking time. Low and slow is the name of this game, so don't hurry the process.)
Stir the nuts occasionally while they are cooking and add additional water as needed to keep them covered in the salty water.
