Hot Boiled Peanuts, Y’all!
Posted in Pensacola on October 13, 2010
Down here, we like our peanuts hot and boiled. Well, I am not a fan of boiled peanuts, but my husband is. He would have loved to come to Holland Farms, a peanut farm, with me and Little S. Upon arrival you are handed a cup of piping hot boiled peanuts. Take those peanuts out to the front porch and sit for a spell in a rocking chair!
If boiled peanuts aren’t your thing, they have them green, roasted, shelled, and in brittle. For the month of October, you can even pick a pumpkin in their pumpkin patch. You can wander around the grounds on the hiking trails. There is also a lengthy hay ride included with your pumpkin patch admission.
Stop by Wanderfood Wednesday to see what everyone else is eating!
Never heard of boiled peanuts, how interesting!
Will have to try it.

That’s a new one to me! There’s something about shelling peanuts that brings me joy. A lot more fun than opening a packet!
I’ve never had boiled peanuts, but I think I prefer mine in brittle form. : )
Have fun at the greek festival. One of my favorite cuisines–I can’t get enough feta cheese!
I’ve never had boiled peanuts. In Taiwan I have eaten them cooking in soy sauce, which is very nice.

I remember boiled peanuts from when I used to visit relatives in Florida. Me and my mom used to buy them from roadside stands. I can’t buy them here, but I should boil some myself.
