Very interesting ... I would have never have thought of making peanut soup! It sounds yummy to me. I’ve had boiled peanuts a few times, and really like those. It seems like I learned peanuts are a legume rather than a nut, so I guess it makes sense they could be used in this way.

Anyone keep a 'cooking' Ping list and could you activate it? ;o)

Just to keep things going, here's another:

Rum and Sweet Potato Casserole

Serves 8

3-4 cups mashed sweet potatoes
1 cup white sugar
2 eggs, beaten
1/2 cup milk
1 teaspoons vanilla extract
1/2 cup butter, melted
1/3 cup dark rum, depending on tastes
1 cup brown sugar
1 cup chopped pecans
1/3 cup self-rising flour
1/3 cup butter, melted

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease a 9x13 inch baking dish.

In a large bowl, mix the sweet potatoes and sugar. Stir in the eggs. Mix in milk, vanilla extract, and 1/2 cup melted butter. Gradually stir in the rum until well blended. Transfer the mixture to the prepared baking dish.

In a medium bowl, mix the brown sugar, pecans, flour, and 1/3 cup melted butter. Sprinkle this mixture over the mashed sweet potato mixture.

Bake 30 minutes in the preheated oven. Allow to sit at least 10 minutes before serving.
