I have eaten boiled peanuts all my life. Daddy used to grow peanuts.

Actually I have never cooked them ever but it should not be difficult. Just cover them in salty water and boil for an hour or so. Maybe a little longer. You do need to get them green but still fully matured.

There was a store in my home town, DeFuniak Springs, who would have a yearly boiled peanut fest. You could eat all you wanted for free and just throw the empty shells on the floor. The floors were wood.

Thanks very much! I was always interested in them, and couldn’t believe that this mushy canned stuff that my friend brought back was the ‘real thing’.
