We were very disappointed when we realized that while Chinese people eat a lot of peanuts and cook with a lot of peanut oil, they don't really eat much peanut butter. Oh you can find it in the stores, but it is not good. Just ask Michael.We have been talking for some time about making our own peanut butter and we finally gave it a try... and it came out allllll riiiiiight. Tonight we ate our second batch of peanut butter on fresh baked bread with strawberry jam. We felt like slackers though since we didn't make homemade jam to go along with the rest of the meal.

This is very interesting...it never occured to me about peanut butter and a culture which uses lots of peanuts! My best friend in college is Chinese, her Mom does a lot of party and always uses peanuts or peanut oil...come to think of it, I don't think there was any peanut butter sandwiches in their house.
