Unsalted natural peanut butter is a creamy paste made solely from roasted peanuts, without the addition of salt, sugars, or extra oils. It is a very versatile ingredient in the kitchen, ideal for preparing both sweet and savory recipes, from sauces and dressings to desserts and smoothies.
Its origin dates back to the indigenous cultures of the Americas, where peanuts were a staple food. Peanut butter as we know it today became popular in the United States in the late 19th century, becoming a common product in pantries worldwide.
Regarding its properties, unsalted natural peanut butter is rich in plant-based proteins, healthy fats (primarily monounsaturated and polyunsaturated), fiber, B-complex vitamins, vitamin E, and minerals such as magnesium, potassium, and phosphorus. Thanks to its high protein and energy content, it is ideal for providing satiety and energy in healthy preparations.
In different regions of Latin America, peanut butter may go by different names, the most common being: crema de maní, pasta de maní, or cacahuate natural molido. However, the term "unsalted natural peanut butter" is widely understood to refer to this pure, additive-free product.
