Traveling to different countries means seeing a lot of interesting places, meeting wonderful people and also trying traditional dishes and finding new recipes. One of the specialties in the South of the USA are boiled peanuts. I never thought I would like them, but after trying them I can not stop thinking about them  therefore today I bring you a bit of the culture of Route 66 and the United States 

Ingredients
500g of raw "green" peanuts (not the colour green, but fresh raw peanuts which are called green peanuts)
1/4 cup salt
4 cups water

optional seasoning
2 tbsp old bay seasoning, smoked paprika, shrimp boil mix, or even star anise

method

Thoroughly rinse raw, unshelled peanuts in water

Put water, salt, seasoning and peanuts in a large stockpot. Bring to a low boil. Cover and reduce the heat just enough to maintain a low boil. Boil for 2 to 3 hours or longer (some boil their peanuts all day), until peanuts reach desired level of softness

Drain the peanuts. Eat within a couple of days as boiled peanuts don't save as well as dry ones
