Boiled Peanuts: How To?

Posted by nalega, September 2, 2009

In a recent thread (http://www.seriouseats.com/talk/2009/09/boiled-peanuts-6-hours-of-idol-hands.html) a reader was asking about what to do while boiling peanuts...

I've only recently even heard of boiled peanuts, and am intrigued...

First of all, where would I find the green peanuts (I'm in NYC)?

I've read recipes online, but is one way more authentic than another?

What is the "proper" way to season them?

Do you really put them in a can of coke?

Any other traditional or common uses for them?

I'm really at a loss with this one, but I'm dying to try it!
