Guest guest Posted February 10, 2011 Report Share Posted February 10, 2011 I am trying to purchase bulk peanuts to make my own peanut butter. There are so many choices. I'm thinking best for health, so would blanched, raw be what I'm after? They used roasted in the dvd I received. I might like to roast mine, or maybe I should just buy roasted. I read somewhere that the allergies people often have to peanuts, are to the mold that is ever present - not the peanut itself. I'm not allergic, but don't especially think mold is good for me Any thoughts or tips? Deb Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted February 10, 2011 Report Share Posted February 10, 2011 Raw peanut butter will likely not taste very good unless you like eating raw peanuts. They are also likely to be The difference between the raw almond butter that I make and roasted almond butter is significant (to me). My husband and I love cashew butter (but we use roasted cashews) and they supposedly don't have the same level of aflatoxins that peanut butter has.

Guest guest Posted February 10, 2011 Report Share Posted February 10, 2011 Also bear in mind that peanuts aren't actually nuts but are legumes which probably accounts for the extreme difference in taste between raw and roasted, plus it's likely they won't blend as well. You should probably stick with roasted unless you want to make peanut milk. Re: Peanuts and peanut butter Raw peanut butter will likely not taste very good unless you like eating raw peanuts.
