Measure and add the salt to your pot, stirring to make sure that it completely dissolves in the water. The salt will give the peanuts flavor as they soak.
Keep in mind that you will be adding additional salt and seasonings later when you boil the peanuts. Be careful not to over-salt them now during the soaking stage.
Use table salt instead of rock salt as it will dissolve in the water more easily.
Adjust your ingredient measurements as necessary.
