Time 42m

Yield 8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 8

2 lbs raw peanuts, in the shell
3 japanese dried chilies
2 star anise
4 inches gingerroot, roughly sliced
10 szechuan peppercorns (optional)
3 teaspoons salt (to taste)
1/3 cup soy sauce
1 tablespoon sesame oil

Steps:

  • Put peanuts, spices, salt, and roughly 1/4 cup soy sauce in a pot and cover with water. Cover pot and bring to boil. Let simmer for 30-40 minutes, stirring every 7-10 minutes (if you don't, the peanuts floating on top won't cook through). When done (peanuts should be a little crunchy yet smushy in your mouth, and taste done), leave peanuts to soak in the brine while they cool. When cool, drain pot and discard spices; toss peanuts with a little more soy sauce and sesame oil (2 teaspoons each max) and serve cold.
