Instant Pot Spicy Boiled Peanuts Food

INSTANT POT BOILED PEANUTS

Steps:

• Sort through the peanuts, removing any debris. Rinse peanuts well and place into the Instant Pot.
• Add salt to the insert pot.
• Add enough water to cover the peanuts and stir. Keep in mind that they will float, so you will need to place a weight on top of them to keep them submerged. I simply place the trivet that came with the Instant Pot on top of the peanuts, then place a small Pyrex bowl (if you don't have Pyrex, any heatproof bowl/mug should work) on top of the trivet to keep it weighted down. Be sure to not overfill the Instant Pot--refer to your particular model's guidelines on maximum fill.
• Lock the lid in place and close the vent. Using the manual setting, cook on high pressure for 80 minutes.
• When cooking is complete, turn the pressure cooker off of the Keep Warm setting and allow the pressure to completely release naturally.

Steps:

• Wash and drain the raw peanuts to remove any dirt.
• Add the peanuts to the pressure cooking pot along with the salt, Cajun seasoning and water to cover. If you like, you can place the trivet that comes with the Instant Pot over the peanuts to make sure they stay immersed in the water.
• Place the lid on the Instant Pot and turn the valve to seal. Cook on high pressure for 30 minutes, if you prefer tender and crunchy peanuts. For soft peanuts, cook for 60 minutes at high pressure. When the cook time ends, let the pressure release naturally for 30 minutes.
• Open the lid and allow the peanuts to sit in the cooked salty water for an hour. Serve and enjoy.
