Tastes good. Peanuts and salt.
Eating homemade toast with homemade PB and (not homemade) honey.
how did you make your pb?
I had about a cup of peanuts and put them in the magic bullet.* Next time I will use my food processor, it's just that it's so big and I figured that a cup would get lost in there and not grind right.
*I did need to add a teeny tiny bit of oil, barely a teaspoon.
My Vitamix is supposedly good for making nut butters, but I can't recall if there's a special container for that, or if I can use the regular one (I have two - a tall one and a shorter one - and I use the shorter one daily for my smoothies). They do have a "dry" container (for making flour), which has different blades inside (they don't aerate the contents the way the regular blades do), and I wonder if that's the one for making nut butters.
ETA: just looked it up - it's the regular/large container that's used for nut butters.
