Peanuts: Fried

Growing up in Pennsylvania, blistered peanuts, so-called because of their bubbly texture, were a wonderful treat.






List of Ingredients



• 2 cups raw peanuts
  
• Boiling water to cover
  
• Oil for frying
  






Instructions



1. Put raw peanuts in a metal bowl or saucepan. Pour boiling water to cover by a good inch. Let set about half an hour. Drain for another half hour.
   
2. In large frying pan, pour oil 1 inch deep. Heat to high-medium-high. Fry about half the peanuts for 4-5 minutes or until lightly browned. Test for doneness. Repeat with remaining peanuts. Let dry on several thicknesses of paper towels.
