Title: Boiled Peanuts
Categories: None
Yield: 1 Servings

5 lb Raw peanuts
Water
1/4 lb Salt

Wash raw peanuts thoroughly. Put peanuts in large pot and cover completely
with water. Pour salt over top of peanuts, about 1/4 pound of salt per five
pounds of peanuts. Boil peanuts until firm, but tender, about 1 hour.
Taste. If they are salty enough, drain immediately. If not, allow peanuts
to sit in salty water to absorb more salt. Taste every 10 minutes to
prevent over salting. Eat hot, at room temperature, or chilled. Peanuts
also freeze well. Remove from freezer, boil until hot, then drain.
