What is Peanut Butter?

Peanut butter is an immensely popular nut butter in America. It is made by grinding peanuts until they form a smooth and creamy spread. This spread is full of oil from the peanuts and has a light brown color. Often peanuts are dry roasted, prior to grinding. Additives such as salt may be included. Peanut butter comes salted, unsalted, smooth and chunky. The chunky variety has tiny chunks of peanut throughout the smooth spread. The flavor is nutty in an unusual way and has a hint of sweetness.
