Recipe: Cajun Boiled Peanuts

Ingredients

Rinse the raw peanuts under cold water.
Place the peanuts in a large pot and cover them with water, ensuring the water level is at least 2 inches above the peanuts.
Add the Cajun seasoning and salt to the pot, then stir and taste the water to adjust the spices.
Bring the water to a boil over high heat.
Once boiling, reduce the heat to medium-low and cover the pot with a lid.
Let the peanuts simmer for about 1.5 to 2 hours, checking for tenderness periodically.
If the water level drops too low, add more water to keep the peanuts submerged.
Taste the peanuts occasionally to check for doneness.
Once cooked to your liking, remove the pot from heat and drain the peanuts.
