Recipe: Homemade Peanut Butter

When we were younger, my brothers and I would drool over a bottle of peanut butter bought from the supermarket. Today, we appreciate peanut butters that are home made. I have one particular favorite, the peanut butter that is made by ate Nene in South Cotabato. My aunts would bring these pasalubongs for us in Manila and they are just wonderful to eat.




 
Ingredients:
1 1/2 pound roasted peanuts -- unsalted in the shell
Salt to taste
2 1/2 tablespoons cooking oil or margarine

homemade peanut butter from South Cotabato

Directions:

1. Shell the peanuts.
2. Grind in food processor until almost smooth (you can leave some lumps if you want crunchy peanut butter).
3. Add oil, enough so mixture is spreadable. Add salt. Blend just to mix.
