Crunchy Peanut Butter with a twist

Updated: Sep 7, 2020


Peanut butter was one of the first products we made by ourselves here in Paksong. It was not available in the area, simply because Western products were not available way back when. So we made our crunchy peanut butter with a twist. A little bit of chili powder is the secret ingredient!

Our chef makes the peanut butter from scratch: she roasts the peanut, removes the husks after roasting and crush the peanuts before she turns it into peanut butter.
