Boiled Raw Peanuts Recipes

Steps:

• Add the raw peanuts to a slow-cooker; add water to cover, then add the salt.
• Place the lid on the slow-cooker; cook on HIGH.
• Every 2 hours, while the peanuts are cooking, give them a stir, and add additional water if needed (the water should always be at about the same level as the peanuts).
• With the exception of you spot checks--the slow-cooker should be kept covered throughout the cooking process.
• When the peanuts have cooked 6 hours, taste them (you do remove the outer shell before eating one).
• If they are too salty, remove some of the salty water and replace it with fresh water.
• If they are not salty enough, add more salt.
• Continue cooking for at least a few hours more--every hour after the initial 6 hours of cooking, remove a peanut, let it cool down, and taste for doneness.
• The final product should be tender yet firm and should be salty and earthy in taste.
• The cooking process can take up to 12 hours to reach this point (the proper cooking time is very subjective; cook the peanuts to your taste).
• When desired doneness, drain the peanuts and serve them warm.

Steps:

• Wash and soak peanuts overnight.
• Place in crockpot and fill with water and add spices.
• Cook for 24 hours.

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.

Steps:

• Wash peanuts until water is clear. Add water to cover peanuts and soak overnight. Put weight on so that peanuts are soaking.
• Drain and rinse several times until water is clean.
• Add star anise; cover and boil for 30 to 45 minutes, testing to see that peanuts are cooked, but not soft. Do not overcook. Turn off heat, add salt and mix.
• Cover and let stand for approximately 30 to 45 minutes.

Steps:

• Rinse all dirt off of peanuts inside of sink and drain.
• Place peanuts inside a large pot that leaves about 4 to 6 inches of room at the top of the pot.
• Cover peanuts with water leaving until the peanuts float to within 2 inches from the top of the pot.
• Add salt. A good hint is that all the salt you add will not be directly absorbed by the peanuts. So you can be generous.
• Bring to a rigorous boil and continue until soft. The time to boil depends on the peanuts and I think it is best done outside.
• Allow peanuts to absorb brine untill desired salty taste. About 1 hour +or -.

Steps:

• Add all ingredients to a large pot
• stir well.
• set on high heat to boil.
• once boiling reduce heat to a low simmer
• simmer until soft usually about 3 hours stir occasionally.
