In Dixie you’re introduced to them by age 3,enjoying them with a large glass of sweet tea.By 17,the tea is replaced with cold beer and get togethers called “peanut boils”.They’re pretty popular in my neck of the woods… Especially when boiled with the addition of liquid crab boil and allowed to soak until they sink.

Love homemade boiled peanuts but the ones you get at convenience stores will turn you against them. They’re way too soft and slimy from sitting in hot water 24-7. Hot boiled peanuts are sold a lot of places in NC and SC.
To make the best tasting boiled peanuts,
Take some fresh and washed green peanuts, when they are in season, put them in a pot, cover with water and boil until the nut is still a little firm. Add salt (to taste) to the water and stir until salt is dissolved, set off the burner and let cool. As the peanuts cool the salty water will be drawn into the shell.
Hard to beat good boiled peanuts and a cool one on a fall evening.

Disgusting waste of a good peanut.

A delicious southern treat. Don’t get the store bought ones. Find a roadside vender; they’ll appreciate your business. My wife and son love them. We don’t eat the hulls, they go in the compost pile. We used to buy from a elderly
Korean woman who would set up on Saturdays. We would buy from her and Bubba outside Union MS. Bubba usually had a gumbo pot on a fish fryer going and was boiling up a fresh batch. Great for the deer stand. I remember singing a Civil War song in elementary school bout eating goober peas. Totally non PC these days. Trying to erase our history. Do your part by eating boiled peanuts!

Best boiled peanuts are boiled green, before being dried. Dried and boiled is only better than no boiled peanuts at all. Salt should always be in moderation. By the way, peanut harvest and doves go together. Great dove shoots over peanut fields.

Southern caviar. It’s a delicacy.

Love ‘em. I haven’t boiled any in a long time. If you can find or make good ones, once you start eating them it’s hard to stop. You want them somewhere between mushy and crunchy (how’s that for specific? 😁) and it takes time. It’s OK to suck on the shells but I’ve never heard of eating them. 🥜
It’s baweld. If you hear the “I” when someone says it, “they’re not from around here” 😁
