Peanuts!

When traveling through different places in the south we have tried and come to enjoy boiled peanuts.  We’ve been wanting to try our hand at making some ourselves.   The other day Monte found some green peanuts at a local Indian food market, and brought home several pounds.

We made a test batch last night and are making more today.

You start with pound of green peanuts.  Wash them well and soak in cold water for about 30 minutes.  Drain and put in boiling pot with about 2 quarts of water and 1/2 cup salt and boil for about 4-5 hours.
