American here, I just make my own peanut butter in a food processor. The ingredients are: peanuts.

Works for me.

No salt? What a monster.

They have self-service "make your own peanutbutter" machines in a lot of grocery stores such as Raley's, too.

I really really don't get why not more people do that. It's like fucken mayonnaise, why buy that shit. Or store bought hollandaise omg I'm fucking throwing up.

I think people may not realize how easy it is. Or maybe a food processor isnโ€™t a common item in every household. I only bought one last year, prior to that I was making peanut butter with a hand blender and that was a pain.

Mayonnaise seems like a faff to make actually, you have to boil eggs and then seperate the white from yolk and then cut it up and put it in a processor, right? That's like 3 things

Tried that once. Burned out the appliance.

I think you're supposed to remove the shells first.

[โ€“] Zephorah@discuss.online 1 points 2 days ago

Funny, but no. It formed a wadded ball.

[โ€“] Railcar8095@lemmy.world 1 points 2 days ago (1 children)

I assume it preserves like the original peanuts? How often do you take to consume a batch?

[โ€“] tomkatt@lemmy.world 1 points 1 day ago

Yeah, I use roasted peanuts and cashews, and they keep fine. Make peanut and cachew butter in two and a half cup batches in the food processor, which comes out to about half that once made into butter.

I don't know how long it takes to go through, probably a few weeks each. I've never had any go bad.
