Dry Roasted Organic Blanched Peanuts

Peanuts are legumes, not tree nuts. Dry roasting involves heating shelled peanuts in ovens. Blanching is a process where the skins are removed, usually by scalding in hot water or steam.

Manufacturers use peanuts for their rich flavor and texture, often as a primary ingredient in peanut butter and other nut butters. They are also used as a crunchy topping or ingredient in baked goods, snacks, and confectionery.

Peanuts are a source of protein, healthy fats, and various vitamins and minerals. The FDA considers peanuts to be Generally Recognized As Safe (GRAS) for consumption. While peanuts are a common allergen, for those without allergies, they are a nutritious food. JECFA and EFSA have evaluated peanuts and their components.
