<p>This is the easiest thing in the world.</p>
<ol>
<li>Dry-fry (no oil etc.) the peanuts in the large frying pan for about 10 mins or for as long as it takes for the peanuts to become golden brown.
<ul>
<li>This will encourage the oils in the peanuts to release - which is exactly what we want!</li>
</ul>
</li>
<li>Put the now-roasted peanuts into the blender and blend.
<ul>
<li>Blend, blend, blend and blend some more.</li>
<li>There will be a point when you think nothing's happening and the small bits of peanut are just moving around the blender, or just stuck in place. Give the stuck pieces a nudge with a spatula and get back to blending.</li>
<li>Blend, blend, blend even more until, eventually, the mixture starts to bind together and turn into a thick solid mass.</li>
<li>Keep blending and the mixture will loosen up become a lovely, smooth, peanut butter.</li>
</ul>
</li>
<li>Spoon out into a suitable container and allow to cool (or just eat it there and then, I won't judge you).</li>
</ol>
<p>Top Tips =</p>
<ul>
<li>If you prefer a chunky peanut butter, save some of the roasted peanuts back and only put them into the blended mixture at the end with a bit of a stir - lovely!</li>

<p>If you have a bread maker:</p>
<ol>
<li>add the water, salt, sugar, herbs, oil, flour and yeast/sourdough starter
<strong>IN THAT ORDER</strong> to the bread maker's container.
<ul>
<li>You <em>must</em> add them in that order, or at least water first else the
mixture will not mix correctly.</li>
</ul>
</li>
<li>set the bread maker to its "dough" setting and set it going - job done!<br />
(P.S. you can just use this same recipe as a regular bread too - just set the
bread maker to the regular "bread" mode)</li>
<li>At this point I normally transfer the dough to a suitable container and
cover it to let it rise.</li>
</ol>
<p>Without a bread maker:</p>
<ol>
<li>add the flour, salt, sugar, herbs and yeast/sourdough starter to the
large mixing bowl and dry mix them all together.</li>
<li>form a well in the middle of the flour mixture and slowly pour in the
water bit by bit, mixing the flour mixture into the water as you go</li>
<li>continue to mix the flour and water mixture, you're going to need to use
your hands, but give it a good mix until everything is mixed together well.
<ul>
<li>you want the dough to still be a bit wet, so if it's dry, add a bit more
water</li>
</ul>
</li>
<li>dust the large chopping board with flour and turn out the wet-ish dough
ball onto the board.</li>
<li>Knead the dough, <em>a lot!</em> Just keep kneading, adding more flour if
necessary.
<ul>
<li>As you knead you'll noticed the dough ball become more smooth and
springy, but it will also feel "stronger"</li>
</ul>
</li>
<li>Once the ball is nice and firm, but still springy, place it into a suitable
container and cover to let it rise.</li>
</ol>
<p>After a few hours of rising time (longer if you're using sourdough starter)
your dough will, hopefully, have risen enormously. You can now use it.
I'll be adding recipes for <a href="/recipes/">pizzas</a>, <a href="/recipes/">naans</a> and other
things that use this dough here, eventually.</p>
