Home Made Peanut Butter
Dear Aunt Daisy, . At last I think my chance has come to make myself a Link in your "Daisy Chain" by helping others. Somebody has asked for a reliable recipe for homemade peanut butter. Well, I have been making it for years and am sure that if the Chain will try this recipe, they will find it good. Take 1lb. of shelled peanuts
and add 44%41Ib. butter and a little salt. Bake the peanuts till a golden brown, but not too brown. Rub all the outside skins off. Put the peanuts through the fine part of the mincer six times. I have found that the more times you put them through the mincer the more oily the butter becomes. If hubby is at home and in a good humour, he will put it through nine times. Sprinkle lightly with salt-about a saltspoon, melt the butter in a saucopan, and add the minced nuts, Mix all well together and put into small! jars. -"‘Devonport" (Auckland), Thanks for your useful hint. It is.a good idea to rub the outside skins off the baked peanuts in the open air, so that the light skins are blown away.
