Southern Boiled Peanuts

🧂 Ingredients

• 3 to 4 pounds raw peanuts

  (in the shell)
• Water

  (sufficient to cover the peanuts)
• 1 cup sea salt
• 3 tablespoons Old Bay Seasoning

Instructions

• 1 Thoroughly wash the peanuts, removing any that are spoiled or moldy.
• 2 Place the peanuts in a pressure cooker and add enough water to just cover them.
• 3 Add sea salt and Old Bay Seasoning. Stir well to mix the seasonings throughout.
• 4 Secure the lid and set the pressure cooker to high for 30 minutes.
• 5 After cooking, allow the pressure to release naturally. If in a hurry, use the
  quick-release valve.
• 6 Stir the peanuts and perform a taste test. If they are not soft enough, cook for
  an additional 10 minutes under pressure.
• 7 Wash the peanuts and place them in the crockpot.
• 8 Cover with water and add the sea salt and Old Bay Seasoning.
• 9 Set the crockpot to high and cook for 6-8 hours, checking for softness as they
  cook.
• 10 Adjust seasoning and water if necessary, especially if the water level reduces
  too much during cooking.
