Peanut butter is a true gastronomic treasure of American cuisine, becoming a cult product for breakfasts and snacks. Its rich nutty flavor, complemented by light notes of sweetness and a creamy texture, makes it a versatile addition to toast, fruits, or even baked goods. The history of the paste dates back to the late 19th century when it began to be used as a source of healthy fats and protein. The secret to the perfect consistency lies in finely grinding peanuts to a creamy state with added oil and sugar. It is nutritious, rich in beneficial substances, and pairs wonderfully with both savory and sweet ingredients. An indispensable product for those who appreciate simple yet surprisingly delicious dishes!

Then we let the nuts cool for about 10-15 minutes. We remove the shell. This is a rather long process, but not difficult — it will take about 10-15 minutes.

We throw peanuts into the blender and grind them almost to a powder. Add oil, salt, and mix.
