Instructions
- Thoroughly wash the peanuts as they will be muddy. If using raw peanuts, make sure you soak them overnight before cooking as they lack moisture.

- Add salt and any seasonings if you'd like.
- Add in water just enough to cover the peanuts, approximately 1" above the peanuts.
- Optional - Place a steamer basket or deep fryer basket (that I got with my Mealthy Crisp Lid) on the peanuts to keep them from floating on the top.
- Cover the lid, seal the vent.
- Pressure Cook on Manual or High Pressure

- When done, if consuming it immediately, strain the peanuts by transferring them into a cup or bowl using a meshed frying spoon. Or else store the peanuts in brine until ready to serve.
- Crack open the shell, slurp the brine and enjoy the soft peanuts. Throw the shell.
