Stir and taste occasionally
Post by Sparklyn, 06-Jan-2025.
Use a slotted spoon to occasionally stir the peanuts as they simmer. Periodically remove a peanut from the pot with a spoon, remove it from its shell, and taste it to determine whether it needs more seasoning or cooking time.
- How long you cook the peanuts depends on your own personal peanut preference. Some people like their peanuts to be very soft, while others prefer that they retain some of their firmness. Testing throughout the cooking process will help you achieve the perfect doneness.
- You may need to add extra water to your pot if the water level drops below the peanuts while they cook.
