Title: Is peanut butter the pinnacle of culinary versatility?
Post by: EMAWmeister on May 20, 2013, 11:20:27 AM
I believe it is. Peanut butter can had those extra flavors and textures to ANY dish that other things can't.

Is there anything peanut butter CAN'T make better?

Is it giving you added utility that you wouldn't have had without peanut butter?

Yes because it is the only food at this snack.

Love it.  It's really good if you put a dab in a bowl of ice cream.

PB, Honey and English muffins are my breakfast at least 3 times a week.

creamy or crunchy, natural or sugar, does not matter.

On a sandwich, creamy. Easier to spread. But I can throw down some crunchy on a bagel or some toast all day.

The overwhelming contestant to PB as I see it would be tortillas.  I know they are just a vessel but is there anything a tortilla doesn't make easier to eat?

i think peanut butter is a little overrated actually, unless it's in a reeses or paired with jelly on a sandwich.  i don't like how it dries out my mouth.

but i can understand how people would feel the oposite.  one thing i'll never understand though is the freaks who put pb on a hamburger.  what a white trash thing to do.

this is about pb, not milk.  one food shouldn't have to use another as a crutch to cure its own deficiency.

You're wrong about the so long burger. The pb/siracha gives it a Thai kick that brings it all together.

Yep.  People with kids who can die from a peanut are in disagreement with this thread's premise.  Can't win them all.

I work in the food industry...a couple weeks ago I had a Chef tell me that, "Bacon is the Duct Tape of the kitchen. Anytime I eff something up, or more usually one of my cooks fucks something up, I just add bacon to it and everybody loves it."

Bacon is clearly superior to PB, though PB is high on the versatility chain.

I also find Cinnamon to be quite the versatile ingredient...I used to make a burger that had onions that I simmered in red wine & cinnamon for about 30 minutes blended into the beef...I really need to make me a batch of them soon.

They are weak. If the ancient Spartans would have had access to peanut butter, they would have fed it to every baby. Any baby who showed a reaction would be cast into a pit, and those weird allergies would have died out with them.

Yeah, I've never tried them, but whenever I walk past a boiled peanuts truck (they have a ton in NYC), the smell draws me to it like a siren.

Would never get them though.

my dad recently bought boiled peanuts in a can from the grocery store and they looked, felt, smelled, and tasted rough ridin' disgusting.

that's not to say real boiled peanuts prepared in a gas can on the side of a county road in the south aren't good though.
