How to Store Boiled Peanuts (4 Steps)
Boiled peanuts are primarily a Southern food, but foodies and transplanted Southerners nationwide may find the traditional snack at grocery stores or make them at home. The best boiled peanuts are made from green, or under ripe, nuts, although ripe, mature peanuts can be used also. Stored peanuts have a short shelf life, but with care they can be stored for a longer period of time.
