Equipment

Ingredients
  

  • 1 lb raw peanuts in the shell not roasted
  • 1/4-1/3 cup coarse sea salt depending on your preference
  • 6 cups of water or more, as needed

Instructions
 

  • Rinse and sort peanuts, discarding any debris or peanuts that are cracked or broken.
  • Combine peanuts, salt, and enough water to generously cover the peanuts in the slow cooker.
  • Cook on the high setting for 5-7 hours, or until the peanuts are tender. Stir occasionally during cooking, and add more water as needed to keep the peanuts covered.

Notes

I have found raw peanuts at Walmart in the nuts section and at some grocery stores (such as Publix) in the fresh produce section. You can also order them from Amazon if you can't find them locally.
