One of America’s favorite sandwiches, peanut butter and jelly, is almost 120 years old. It was in 1896 that Good Housekeeping, a women’s magazine, came up with the idea of this nut butter sandwich. In its May issue, the magazine published a recipe for homemakers to try grinding peanuts in a meat grinder and spreading the resultant creamy nut butter on bread. In the following month, a culinary magazine, Table Talk, also came up with a peanut butter sandwich recipe.
Ingredients
4 slices bread white, preferable
2 tbsp peanut butter creamy or chunky
2 tbsp grape jelly
Method* Spread the peanut butter on two slices of the bread.
* Cover the corners as well.
* Now, spread jelly on the other two slices of bread.
* Avoid nut-buttering the slice on which you are going to put jelly or else the jelly will have nothing to cling on to.
* It will easily slide out of the sandwich while you are eating it.
