This Instant Pot salt and vinegar boiled peanuts recipe was inspired by a craving for something different from the classic Cajun style. Seeing a bag of salt and vinegar chips, I thought — why not? Plus, Instant Pot boiled peanuts are a breeze.
Ingredients
- 2 cups distilled white vinegar
- 2 cups water
- 0.33 cups salt
- 1 pound raw Virginia peanuts in shells
Instructions
-
1
Whisk vinegar, water, and salt together in a large bowl; stir in peanuts to coat. Transfer to a gallon-sized resealable plastic bag; sit aside for 8 hours to overnight.
-
2
Transfer peanuts and liquid to a multi-functional pressure cooker (such as Instant Pot). Close and lock the lid. Select high pressure according to manufacturer's instructions. Set a timer for 120 minutes. Allow 10 to 15 minutes for pressure to build.

3
Release pressure using the natural-release method according to manufacturer's instructions, about 20 minutes. Unlock and remove the lid.

20 Second Salad
A crisp 'no-mayo' coleslaw that is great for potlucks. I have used honey-roasted peanuts and have used sunflower seeds. The honey-roasted peanuts taste great in it. For big crowds I do a double batch.
Strawberry Trifle
This strawberry trifle is a very light dessert recipe from my friend Ellen. It's easy to make with cake cubes, pudding, and strawberries for the perfect end to a heavy meal.
Patriotic Berry Trifle
You can change this recipe up lots of ways - use fresh made whipped cream, any mix of berries you like, and swap out the vanilla pudding for cheesecake flavor if you'd like. You can use pound cake in place of angel food cake if you prefer - but I like the light texture of the angel food cake for this one!
