Peanut paste, commonly known as peanut butter, is a creamy spread made from ground roasted peanuts, with variations including added salt, sugar, or oils for flavor and consistency. Originating in North America, it is a versatile ingredient used in both sweet and savory cuisines worldwide. Packed with nutrients, peanut paste is a rich source of protein, healthy fats, vitamin E, magnesium, and potassium, supporting muscle growth and heart health. Its monounsaturated fats can help reduce bad cholesterol levels when eaten in moderation. However, some varieties contain added sugars and hydrogenated oils, which may contribute to weight gain and heart risks. Opting for natural or unsweetened versions maximizes its health benefits. Peanut paste is enjoyed in sandwiches, smoothies, sauces, and baked goods, making it a convenient and nutritious staple for diverse diets.
