have been studied as a potential treatment for peanut allerigies. But thats not
why you came here is it? You want boiled peanut flavor ideas and im here to

simple salt and water ate wonderful and probably the most common 2 pounds
raw or green peanuts in the shell (NOT roasted peanuts) 4 quarts water 1/3-1/2

cajun is another popular way to go. 1 lb Raw Peanuts, rinsed 10 Cups
Water 1/4 Cup Sea Salt 2 Tb Salt Free Cajun Spice Blend 1 Bottle of Tabasco
Sauce, 2oz the process is the same with any flavor you wa t to use. boul until
nuts are soft. green peanuts are best for boiling and i orefer the red slinned
nuts myself. seasonung is always "to taste" add as much or as little flavor as you'd like. here are some other flavor ideas you might enjoy. mix and match any
