Modern chicken stew
1. We've all known and loved peanut butter since childhood. What would our school
lunches or couch-potato snacks have been without peanut butter or any other
sandwich recipes like PB&J sandwich? Whether you're a fan of creamy or chunky,
peanut butter has always had a place in American culture. But have you ever
wondered how peanut butter came about? And how did it become so popular? In
honor of National Peanut Butter Day, which is January 24, we delve into some
peanut butter history and trivia.
Peanut butter actually dates back to Aztec times. The Aztecs mashed roasted
peanuts into a paste, somewhat different from what we know of as peanut butter
today. But many people have been credited with the title of peanut-butter-inventor,
among them George Washington Carver. However, he did not invent peanut butter;
instead he promoted more than 300 uses for peanuts, among other crops such as soy
beans and sweet potatoes.
The actual invention of peanut butter, its process of manufacture and the machinery
used to make it, can be credited to at least three doctors/inventors. In 1884
Marcellus Gilmore Edson of Canada patented peanut paste, the finished product
from milling roasted peanuts between two heated surfaces. In 1895 Dr. John Harvey
Kellogg (the creator of Kellogg's cereal) patented a process for creating peanut
butter from raw peanuts. He marketed it as a healthy protein substitute for patients
without teeth.Now in the modern days we use peanut in many different ways like on
salads, sandwiches of course or just as a dip. Based on a traditional African dish,
this stew uses peanut butter to add unique flavor.
