Boiled peanuts need to be soaked for 3 or 4 hours to be crisp instead of noodles. To dry peanuts, you must soak them in cold water for several hours in advance, and then put them in a pot to cook. Cooking method is similar to fresh peanuts. Add salt, fennel, cinnamon and spicy leather (optional) and bring to a boil over high heat. Be sure to add the lid and cook over medium heat 15 minutes.
Before boiling peanuts, soak them in light salt water for one night to make them absorb and expand. Cooked peanuts are more brittle and can be tasted. Don't cook for too long, about fifteen minutes. In addition, do not take out the cooked peanuts directly. It's better to soak them in boiled peanut soup, which is more delicious. Diced vegetables can be blanched while eating. If you want to eat salty things, you can dice the vegetables cooked with peanuts and soak them in boiling water like peanuts.
