Steps:
- Add the peanuts to a large pot. Pour in enough water to cover the peanuts. It's usually a couple gallons of water.
- Stir in the shrimp and crab boil and Cajun seasonings (or Creole seasonings) with salt.
- Add the habanero peppers, if using them. They add a very good level of heat to the whole batch.
- Dash in your hot sauce and give it a good stir.
- Bring the pot to a boil, then reduce heat. Partially cover the pot with a lid and simmer for 5 hours. Check it periodically to push the peanuts under the seasoned water.
- Cool. You can eat the peanuts now if you'd like, but to develop more flavor, cover and set the pot into the refrigerator.
- Refrigerate overnight to let the flavors develop. The peanuts will become much more infused with the seasonings as they steep in the liquid.
- Reheat on the stove top and enjoy.

CAJUN SUGARED PEANUTS
I was headed to a Mardi Gras party and needed to throw something together fast. I had some raw peanuts on hand and decided to try candy coating them with a kick of Cajun seasonings added in. This is the result and they were a hit. 'Addictive' was the word most people used. Would be a great gift to give out during the holidays.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Stir sugar into water in a saucepan over medium heat; cook and stir until the sugar dissolves completely. Add peanuts, chipotle chile powder, kosher salt, chili powder, and garlic powder into the liquid.
- Bring the mixture to a boil and cook, stirring constantly, until the liquid evaporates and the remaining syrup coats the nuts, about 15 minutes; spread immediately onto the prepared baking sheet. Use forks to separate any peanuts stuck together and to get an even layer.
- Bake in preheated oven, stirring and then separating the peanuts every 5 minutes, until the peanuts are glazed, about 20 minutes total. Let peanuts cool completely before breaking into small pieces.
