I love boiled peanuts, but I can't seem to ever find true raw green ones in Houston. Using the bags usually ends up with peanuts that are not as soft as I like them.

I add salt/Tony's and crab boil at the beginning and just let them roll, tasting one on occasion after a couple of hours. I don't shock with ice.

I want some of them to be like this. Not all, but getting a mushy one every once in a while is fine by me.

GRTiger, FWIW, I saw raw green peanuts at Canino's Produce Market on Airline last weekend, just one stall had them. They definitely weren't the jumbo greens you'd see in MS or AL and I didn't have time to deal with them so I haven't had any. Just thought it was worth mentioning that they were there and they appeared to be decent size.
