Questions about Smooth peanut butter
How much smooth peanut butter is a serving?
A level tablespoon is about 32 g. Spread it on toast or stir it into porridge rather than eating straight from the jar, where portions can quickly add up.
How do you make a smooth peanut-butter sauce for noodles?
Whisk smooth peanut butter with warm water, soy sauce, lime juice and a little grated ginger until pourable. Add chilli or a dash of sesame oil, then toss through hot noodles; loosen with more water if it thickens.
Should you keep smooth peanut butter in the fridge after opening?
Follow the jar’s storage instructions. Natural peanut butter often separates, so stir it well before refrigerating; chilled peanut butter firms up, so let it stand briefly before spreading.
What can you make with smooth peanut butter besides sandwiches?
Stir it into satay sauce, blend it into a banana smoothie, or use it in peanut-butter cookies and brownies. It also makes a savoury dressing with lime, soy sauce and warm water.
Can you use smooth peanut butter instead of chunky peanut butter?
Yes, use it in the same amount in sauces, baking and sandwiches. You will lose the little crunchy pieces, so add chopped roasted peanuts if you want that texture.
Is smooth peanut butter a source of iron?
Yes. A 32 g tablespoon provides 5.3 mg of iron; it also has 8.2 g of protein.
Is smooth peanut butter high in fat?
Yes: a 32 g tablespoon contains 16 g of fat, much of it unsaturated, alongside 3.2 g of saturated fat.
Can a peanut allergy make smooth peanut butter unsafe?
Yes. Smooth peanut butter is made from peanuts and is not safe for someone with a peanut allergy; even a small amount can trigger a reaction. Keep it away from anyone who needs to avoid peanuts, including through cross-contact.
