Crock Pot Cajun Boiled Peanuts Food

CAJUN BOILED PEANUTS - RECIPE

Steps:

• Add the peanuts to a large pot. Pour in enough water to cover the peanuts. It's usually a couple gallons of water.
• Stir in the shrimp and crab boil and Cajun seasonings (or Creole seasonings) with salt.
• Add the habanero peppers, if using them. They add a very good level of heat to the whole batch.
• Dash in your hot sauce and give it a good stir.
• Bring the pot to a boil, then reduce heat. Partially cover the pot with a lid and simmer for 5 hours. Check it periodically to push the peanuts under the seasoned water.
• Cool. You can eat the peanuts now if you'd like, but to develop more flavor, cover and set the pot into the refrigerator.
• Refrigerate overnight to let the flavors develop. The peanuts will become much more infused with the seasonings as they steep in the liquid.
• Reheat on the stove top and enjoy.

HONEY ROASTED PEANUTS

Steps:

• Gather the ingredients.
• Preheat the oven to 325 F. Prepare a baking sheet by lining it with aluminum foil and spraying it with nonstick cooking spray. Place the butter, honey, vanilla, cinnamon, and 1 teaspoon salt in a large microwave-safe bowl. Microwave the mixture until the butter is melted, about 45 seconds, stirring halfway through. Once melted, stir until the liquid is smooth.
• Add the peanuts to the honey mixture and stir until they're all evenly coated.
• Pour the peanuts out onto the prepared baking sheet and spread them into an even layer.
• Bake the peanuts for 20 minutes, stirring every 5 minutes to prevent burning. The peanuts at the edges will brown faster, so it's important to stir regularly to get an even roasting.
• Once the peanuts are golden brown, remove them from the oven and stir again to distribute the honey that has dripped onto the baking sheet.
• Let the peanuts rest for a minute or two. Sprinkle the granulated sugar and the remaining teaspoon of salt on top and stir again. The sugar and salt will add flavor and texture to the peanuts.
• As they continue to cool at room temperature, stir occasionally to break up any big clumps. Enjoy warm or cold!
