Lickety-Split Cajun Boiled Peanuts

Directions

1. 1
   In a crockpot, put about 2 quarts of water and add the peanuts (in their shells) such that the water just barely covers the peanuts.
2. 2
   Add 2-3 tbs salt and 10 dashes of red pepper (more if you like spice) and a dash each (optional) of garlic and soy sauce.
3. 3
   Let it all simmer for 24 hours, adding more water when the level gets lower, every so often.
4. 4
   The idea is to get the peanuts really soft inside the shells.
5. 5
   When ready, serve hot, with an empty bowl nearby for the empty shells.
