Boiled Peanut Instant Pot Food

INSTANT POT BOILED PEANUTS

Steps:

• Rinse the peanuts in cool water. Place them in the Instant Pot or electric pressure cooker.
• Add the salt and vinegar. Add enough water to just cover the peanuts. For me, that was about 10 cups. Be cautious to not exceed the max fill line on your appliance.
• Place the lid on and seal. Cook on high pressure for 60 minutes than turn the appliance off and allow the pressure to release naturally. Carefully remove the lid and enjoy!
