I am looking to come over and use someone's food processor to make peanut butter. We were in Bangkok and I had a friend whose husband worked for the US Embassy, which meant that she had every kitchen appliances known to man (shipped conveniently from her home). So I used her processor to whip up peanut butter every month or so. Blenders don't work very well, so I am looking for an actual food processor (cuisinart, whatever).
Anyone here in the Udon area have one I could use?? I'm a photographer and would be willing to shoot some photos for you in return (your kids, spouse, house, dog, whatever..)
Thanks.

Re: Food Processor?
There are state of the art food processors to be found in Siam Paragaon , Emporium, top end of town in BKK.
Re: Food Processor?
Yeah, but purchasing a food processor kind of defeats the purpose of saving money by making my own pb. Plus I'm only here for 4 months so I'm not looking to invest in something that wouldn't even work in my home country (voltage-wise).
Re: Food Processor?
Well at least post the recipe. For four months, go to Ngee Soon and buy a couple of jars of jiffy, cost 250 baht.
Re: Food Processor?
Jiffy is so gross. Also, we have two boys and go through at least 1 jar/week (so it would be more like 16 jars of pb).
The recipe is really simple:
Put 250 grams of roasted, salted peanuts into a food processor and turn it on. After about 3 or 4 minutes, it should be at the right consistency (obviously process it longer if you like it smoother or for less time if you like it with more texture).
I think it could be done in a blender, but it would have to be a pretty good blender (and there would need to be a lot of stopping to scrape down the sides). We are making a trip back to the States in February before we move to Laos and will just bring back our Cuisinart (yeah, we have a heavy-duty converter for it). I just didn't want to have to wait 4 months for real peanut butter !

Re: Food Processor?
Hmm sounds simple. Only (unsalted) roasted peanuts I have seen and buy when open, is at the market downtown. 100 baht for what I guess is a kilo. When I first started buying them, think they were around 60 baht.boxcar wrote:Jiffy is so gross. Also, we have two boys and go through at least 1 jar/week (so it would be more like 16 jars of pb).
