Hi, I’m Satch Mantz and this is a Thrift Shop Chef, Thrifty Tip.
So, in our thrift shop adventures we found a kid’s toy.
1960s Mr. Peanut, peanut butter maker.
Today we’re going to make our own homemade peanut butter and jelly sandwich.
We’re going to start with our jelly first and the recipe for this jelly is 2 pounds
of fresh strawberries, 1 point five nine ounces of pectin, and 11 and a half ounces of sugar.
To start this recipe, we’re going to take our strawberries, and we’re going to blend
them up in this blender.
Oh, good they all fit, wonderful.
So, we want to puree these down into a near jelly consistency, before we add our sugar
and pectin, those are our, those are the last bits, so.
And there we go, so, now next, we’re going to carefully add the sugar.
Now, just going to pulse this a few more times to allow it to incorporate.
There we go, and now, for our 1 point five nine ounces of pectin, going to add this very
carefully.
Pectin is actually, naturally found holding the seeds of tomatoes inside the tomatoes,
so if you ever see that clear jelly around the seeds of tomatoes, that is naturally occurring
pectin.
There we go, okay.
Alright so I’m just going to toss this a few more times just to allow the pectin to
incorporate.
And the last step in this recipe for our jelly is a few cranks of fresh cracked black peppers
so, to finish it off.
There we go, and now we’re going to sit this off to the side while we continue with
our peanut butter.
For our homemade peanut butter, we’re simply going to take some unsalted peanuts, add them
into Mr. Peanut’s top hat and then give it a few cranks until we get some peanut butter.
Won’t all fit in here but it doesn’t matter.
So, now, my Mr. Peanut brand homemade peanut butter, coming out one peanut at a time.
Now that we have our Mr. peanut, peanut butter made, and our strawberry jam, we’re going
to make our thrift shop chef style peanut butter and jelly sandwich.
Right here with our Mr. Peanut butter licensed peanut butter spreader.
See if this works, I imagined in the 60s not all peanut butter looked like this.
IT spreads so well.
Not wasting a bit, this amount took forever.
So, there we have that and then now we have our half an hour easy no cook, strawberry
jam that we made fresh, and that looks great.
There we go, thrift shop chef style peanut butter and jelly.
