ABSTRACT:
A method of preparing a whipped peanut butter, the peanut butter produced thereby and the peanut butter packaged in a container. The peanut butter is made by uniformly dispersing nitrogen or a similar inert gas, into a peanut butter mass for the purpose of producing a whipped and aerated peanut butter having a 10 to 50 percent aeration. The effect of inert gas incorporation along with the rapid chilling and whipping process employed in this invention is a substantially softer and more spreadable peanut butter. Additionally, the whipped peanut butter has a uniquely pleasing mouth-feel with reduced stickiness and cling to mouth-parts.
Since aeration has a direct effect on the finished peanut butter color and flavor, one aspect of the process pertains to the inclusion of powdered molasses and/or the selection of peanuts roasted to a particular L-value to compensate for the lighter color and lower flavor intensity produced by the incorporation of nitrogen or similar gases. The packaging system provides for maximum protection of whipped product from textural defects, e.g. pull-away, cracking, yet offering good protection against flavor loss.
