Some of us just don’t take peanut butter and jelly sandwiches seriously enough...
The folks at SeriousEats.com put PB&J ingredients to the test and determined which elements we need to make the best sandwich:
* The Bread: They tested several and ruled out rye and pumpernickel. Of the preferred plain white bread brands, they liked Pepperidge Farm best.
* The Peanut Butter: Creamy trumped crunchy and we have two winners. Whole Foods 365 Organic had the best taste and good old Jif placed 2nd with the perfect texture.
* The Jelly: While this component is subject to a lot of debate, SeiousEats went with Smucker’s Strawberry Jam.
The peanut butter and jelly ratio can make or break your sandwich. They tested several and the general consensus was about 2 to 1, PB over J. For a less soggy sandwich, spread both pieces of bread with the peanut butter before applying the jelly.
