{"id":1587,"slug":"homemade-peanut-butter","title":"Homemade Peanut Butter","description":"Peanut butter is a food product usually consisting of roasted and ground peanuts, sometimes sweetened. It is commonly sold in grocery stores, but can be made at home. Many styles are available; the most popular are creamy (smooth) and crunchy, but honey-roasted or wholenut varieties can also be found. Creamy peanut butter is made by grinding all of the mixture very finely. The crunchier styles leave portions of the mixture with a coarser grind, resulting in larger pieces of peanut interspersed with the creamier fine ground mixture.","ingredients_raw":["2 cups (250 g) raw shelled peanuts","1 tablespoons any natural oil, such as vegetable oil, peanut oil or canola oil (optional)","½ teaspoon white sugar (optional)","2 teaspoons honey (optional)","1 pinch of salt"],"ingredients_norm":["raw shelled peanut","any natural oil such as vegetable oil peanut oil or canola oil","white sugar","honey","salt"],"steps":["Place tinfoil on a baking pan, add in peanuts and bake the peanuts at 200–350 °F for about 10 minutes.","Let peanuts cool.
