Ingredients
  

  • 1 and 1/2 Cups Spanish style peanuts (with skin)
  • 1 tsp Kosher salt
  • 1 Cup of water

Instructions
 

  • Combine peanuts , salt and water into a bowl. Water level should be about half an inch over peanuts. Soak overnight. In the morning most of the water should have been absorbed by the peanuts. Drain remaining water.
  • Pre heat oven 250. Layer peanuts on a baking sheet and roast for about an hour until most of the water dries off but still chewy. Increase temperature to 300 and continue to cook for another 30 minutes or until the desired crunch is attained. Remove from oven and let cool completely
  • To peel, rub between your palms several times. Take outside, give the cookie sheet a toss while blowing to separate the peanuts from the peels. Enjoy or store in an airtight container for later use.
