Now the Recipe of Salty N Spicy Peanut Butter:

Select some good peanuts:

• While buying peanuts for peanut butter, you should choose those shelled peanuts.
• However, I used some raw peanuts with skins, then roasted them and removed the skin.
• To avoid all these work, just buy the roasted and shelled peanuts.

Roast:

• If you are using raw peanuts, then roast them in the oven first.
• Roast at 250 F and for 10 minutes.

Remember that the peanuts shouldn’t turn very dark and brown.

• Check this image with three varieties of peanuts after roasting.
• While the nearly raw ones look pinkish, the perfectly roasted ones look reddish and the over-roasted one look red-brownish.
• Your aim is to get more reddish looking peanuts after roasting.
• Well roasted peanuts are even easier to handle while husking.

Remove skin:

• Place the roasted peanuts in a cloth and rub them between your palms.
• Now use a colander or a spatula with big holes to remove the shelled peanuts easily.
• Shake off the lose skins and place the shelled and roasted peanuts in another tray.

Process:

• If using roasted and shelled peanuts, start with this step.
• In a food processor, eight ounce of shelled peanuts.

• Process at a medium speed until they become coarse and grainy.
• Stir and scrape from the edges and process again.

• The mixture will turn doughy first, and then it will turn creamy and smooth.
• It will take only 5-7 minutes to become creamy unlike the processing time of almond butter.

Add Flavor:

• Now add Himalayan pink salt, smoked paprika, cayenne pepper, cumin powder and garlic powder.

• Process again so that the spice is well combined with the peanut butter.
• Store in an air-tight container for months, preferably in a refrigerator.
