Oooohhhh, Wesly Paul! Thanks for reminding me why this is my favorite foodie site! :) Been away *FAR* too long! This has been my favorite cuisine discovery (and trust me, there have been many others!) since we moved to the West Coast!

Isn't that essentially peanut butter? All peanut butter is is ground/mashed peanuts? You don't have to add oil to it....

Did you know there is no peanut butter in Thailand? They crush peanuts in a mortar and pestle, but no peanut butter.
