Yup. They're basically beans that were raised as tubers and think they're tree nuts.
Then you boil them in a brine and they become redneck oysters.
Boil them with crab boil and a ton of crushed red pepper. So good.
The best I can find around here in north Texas are pre packaged raw peanuts, so they’re kinda old and super dry. They still boil up fine, but it takes for-fucking-ever. I’ve found that salt and Adobo seasoning gives them a nice mellow garlic flavor that works really well for me. Canned Cajun style are good too, though there are more squishies than I’d prefer.
Oh, I like it spicy. They ship pretty well if you know somebody who lives somewhere that they're more readily available. Until I found somewhere to buy fresh peanuts locally, I occasionally had a family member ship them to me from Florida. They might be available online, too.
