cooling the nuts before processing as it will result in a much richer flavor. simply place about 2 cups of roasted/toasted nuts in the blender and turn the speed to variable 1. slowly increase the speed, using the plunger to push the nuts down into the blades as you go, until you reach variable 10. process until you come out with a smooth and creamy butter. if you like your nut butter on the chunky side pulse the nuts until they are fine but not paste-y and then remove some to stir back into the final product. you can also add some sea salt at the beginning of the process
