Peanut butter's richness and thickness is exactly what make it so satisfying, but that same heaviness is also why infusions like honey and a hint of heat cut through so well, as explored in Big Spoon Roasters' Hatch Hot Honey Peanut Butter. This limited-edition peanut butter was developed in collaboration with single-origin spice company Burlap & Barrel, and it matches earthy, fruity, aromatic New Mexico Hatch Green Chile Powder with a touch of habanero, raw organic honey and Jacobsen Sea Salt.
Altogether, this peanut butter is said to deliver balanced sweetness and slow-building heat for an approachable and craveable experience, whether it's savored on its own atop toast or in a sandwich. Beyond, Big Spoon Roasters suggests adding this swicy peanut butter to breakfast tacos, mole, roasted vegetables, or vinaigrette.
