East Wind Nut Butters, Products

Almond Butter

East Wind Almond Butter is made from Mission variety California almonds. After dry-roasting and cooling, we mill the unblanched almonds into Smooth or Crunchy Almond Butter. With the skins left on, East Wind Almond Butter has a dark, rich color and flavor. Our Almond Butter has no added ingredients— just fresh-roasted almonds. You can order East Wind Almond Butter in 16-oz. jars or 15-lb. buckets.

Tahini and Organic Tahini

Tahini is a seed butter made from sesame seeds, which we usually get from Mexico or Nicaragua. Tahini is used in many vegetarian and Middle Eastern recipes. Since it is naturally somewhat bitter, most people do not use it as a bread spread as they do other nut butters. Sesame for East Wind Tahinis are lightly roasted, so our Tahini/Organic Tahini is less bitter than some brands. They only ingredient is mechanically-hulled sesame seeds. East Wind Tahini or Organic Tahini comes in 16-oz. glass jars or 15-lb. buckets.

Peanut Butter

East Wind Peanut Butter is a natural product made from Valencia peanuts from New Mexico. Premium Valencia peanuts are known for their sweet taste as well as for the special care that's required for their cultivation and harvest. New Mexican Valencia crops are irrigated, making them less subject to drought-related aflatoxin mold. According to federal law, peanuts are tested for aflatoxins by the sheller-processor, and at East Wind we also request occasional tests from the USDA as an extra measure.

At East Wind, the shelled peanuts are dry-roasted, then cooled and mechanically blanched to remove the skins. Then the peanuts are milled into a smooth or crunchy peanut butter, with or without added salt. Warm from the mill, East Wind Peanut Butter is packaged in 16-oz. glass jars, 5-lb. buckets, or 35-lb. tubs.

Organic Peanut Butter

East Wind Organic Peanut Butter is also made of Valencia peanuts which are certified organic by USDA Stellar Certification. Our roasting and milling process is similar to our non-organic Peanut Butter. However, we do not blanch our organic peanuts; with the skins left on, Organic Peanut Butter has a richer, darker taste and color and slightly thicker consistency. Smooth or Crunchy, East Wind Organic Peanut Butter can be purchased in 16-oz. jars 5-lb. buckets or 35-lb. tubs.

Roasted Peanuts

East Wind Nut Butters also packages Roasted Peanuts in 25-pound vacuum-packed boxed bags. Either regular or Organic Valencia peanuts are dry-roasted and blanched as for peanut butter. Roasted peanuts make delicious snacks, and many stores stock East Wind Roasted Peanuts to make peanut butter in-store with electric grinders.

Cashew Butter

Cashews are nuts which grow from the bottom of apple-like fruits on cashew trees. The nuts have two shells with a bitter liquid layer between them. The nut producer applies heat to remove the liquid and make the shells brittle enough to crack and remove. So "raw" cashews are not completely unprocessed, but are as close to raw as is available on the market. East Wind's cashews usually come from Mozambique or Brazil.

To make Raw Cashew Butter, we heat the cashews to 208 degrees— this removes excess moisture but does not change the color or taste. Then we mill and pack the butter. For Roasted Cashew Butter, we use a 240 degree roast. Small amounts of high-oleic expeller-pressed safflower oil are added to our Cashew Butters during milling to provide a spreadable consistency. No preservatives, sugar or salt are added. You can get East Wind Raw or Roasted Cashew Butter in 16-oz. glass jars or 15-lb. buckets.
