Boiled P-Nuts |
Through beautiful brick gate posts the driveway led to a sign saying "Boiled P-Nuts. Honk Horn Here". It felt odd but it was a lovely farm setting and I could see the plantation house through the trees.
A truck drove up and the gentleman said he was closing for the day but would bring me a "peck" of peanuts for $12. Now I have to figure it out! Since he was closing up shop for the day it didn't seem right to try to snoop around. I may be purchasing another peck of peanuts next time I am in the area.

Never tried them with tangerines from California. Learn something new every day!
Boiled peanuts, that's a new one to me!
I am charmed that there is still someone who knows about a peck. Here in my Appalachian fastness it was a common measurement until fairly recently.
I love my oranges and tangerines! I have one almost every day.
It is a southern thing. I took them to Canada one time but no one was impressed :)
I did have to guess at the salt amount since no recipe lists a peck!
