Peanut History
The peanut is said to have originated in South America. The only proof of this is that jars of peanuts have been found in the graves of ancient Incas. Spanish explorers spread the peanut throughout the world, mainly in Africa and Asia. Peanuts were introduced in the United States by African slaves. The slaves brought peanuts with them and planted crops in the south. There was a surge in the popularity of peanuts during the Civil War. Soldiers fround peanuts readily available and a quick source of food. Peanuts were eventually roasted and in the early 1900's, peanut butter was invented. Today peanuts are used in candy, salads, main dishes and desserts. Peanut butter accounts for over half of all peanut consumption. More Recipes

- You are right, we should all try making peanut butter at least once - at least those of us who have big peanut butter fans in their families.

- I love peanuts and could eat them in practically any way they come. I love Satay, especially the authentic Malaysian versions, but your peanut soup is what I would love to try, I can't imagine how it tastes.
