Psalm 22:27-28

    [27] All the ends of the earth shall remember

        and turn to the LORD,

    and all the families of the nations

        shall worship before you. 

    [28] For kingship belongs to the LORD,

        and he rules over the nations.

After a few different combo of seasonings, this is the winner!!

Slightly spicy and salty, drink with a coke mini or a root beer mini!!

Dry Pan Roasted Salted Peanuts

This worked great!

2 c raw shelled peanuts with skin on

4 c kosher coarse salt 

Before roasting rinse peanuts with water and drain.

Set aside.

Place salt in cast iron Dutch oven and heat on #4 setting on gas top burner.

Must stir constantly with a long wooden spoon.

When salt gets warm to touch, add peanuts. (just lightly touch cause it's scalding hot) 

Stir constantly for 11 minutes.

Remove pan from heat.

Using a large spider gently shake to remove salt.

Place parchment on sheet pan and place the peanuts there to cool.

Reserve salt to do next batch of peanuts.

Did whole pecan too and it took 7 minutes!

Based on recipe from tiffy cooks!

Mesquite-Smoked Salt-Spiced Pecans

Cheese Ball

                                                                                                                                   

• 2 packs of cream cheese (8 oz. each)
• 8 oz. cheddar cheese (shredded)
• 1 tsp. fresh lemon juice (or from the plastic lemon squirt ball)
• 2 tsp. Worcestershire sauce
• dash cayenne pepper (about 1/4 and then to taste)
• 1/8 tsp. salt (seasoned salt is fine here too)
• 1 cup pecans (chopped fine)

1. Let the cream cheese sit out for an hour or so. It's much easier to mix when warm.
2. Put the cream cheese and shredded cheddar cheese in a bowl and mix well. Add the seasonings. Mix well.
3. Put the mixture in the refrigerator for an hour or so. Then, you can form the cheese into a ball. You can do it before, but it's hard to make a ball out of warm cheese.
4. This recipe easily makes two cheese balls. Either roll the cheese ball around in the finely chopped pecans or gently pat the pecans into the cheese. I generally use a combination of rolling and patting.
5. That's the basic southern cheese ball recipe.
6. You can use different cheese such as white cheddar. You can also use different nuts for rolling the cheese ball. You also can add dried fruit to the cheese ball or dried or fresh herbs.
