no difference for c, but the raw has a different flavour and texture and is well, raw so the diff is the reguklar is roasted. the raw is better as it retains omre nutrients.

Raw nuts/nutbutters are healthier in general. Heat has not altered the fatty acids.

That is the brand of PB I bought! I tried it over the weekend and love the taste. Next time I will try their raw almond butter.
I found the plain rice protein powder and tried it this morning. I have to admit, I could definitely taste it in my smoothie, which I didn't like too much... oh well!

And it is yummy!!! I dumped half the oil out. Did you keep all the oil? The "raw" butter looked too rough. It's safe, huh?

Actually, I dumped alot of the oil out too. Yes, it's safe in small quantities & with SF.

Would love some ideas, Wind!
How much oil do you poor out? More than half?

I just tipped the jar over & let it all the visible oil drip out--so, most of it, I suppose!
Re: sauces
It adds decadence to a thick soup/stew. I got this inspiration from a Deepak Chopra recipe. Alot of African recipes for soups/stews use peanutbutter, but this is way better. It's fabulous when blended with herbs for a kind of pesto. It makes an awesome "creamy" dressing for noodles or quinoa & veggies. I usually use a little rice vinegar, lime juice, soy sauce, etc. It combines well with spicy stuff like chiles and curry. I've even blended it with silken tofu & herbs for sauces. Search the web & you'll find tons of ideas. Try it in a sort of "hummus" too! Or with roasted pureed red peppers! You're only limited by your imagination. Oh! It's great in a satay kind of sauce/dip as well.
