Ingredients:

  • 1 lb raw shelled peanuts

Directions:

Put 1 pound raw shelled peanuts in a 3 quart crock pot. Fill pot with water and allow peanuts to soak 8 hours or overnight. Peanuts will absorb a lot of the water making it necessary to add water until the pot is filled. Add salt to taste. Cook peanuts on low for 8 hours and then on high for 1 1/2 hours or medium for 4 1/2 hours. Drain (Try 4 to 5 tablespoons of salt; taste toward end of cooking time. Add more salt if taste dictates and allow to cook for about 1 more hour).
