What it is

Peanut oil is a vegetable oil extracted from roasted peanuts. It is known for its distinct nutty flavor and high smoke point, making it suitable for various cooking methods. The oil is typically produced through pressing or solvent extraction.

Why it's used

Peanut oil is used as a cooking oil for frying, sautéing, and baking due to its flavor and heat stability. It is also used as an ingredient in salad dressings, sauces, and marinades. Manufacturers add it to impart a nutty taste and improve texture in processed foods.

Health notes

Peanut oil is generally recognized as safe (GRAS) by the FDA for use in food. It is a source of monounsaturated and polyunsaturated fats, which are considered healthier fats. JECFA and EFSA have evaluated peanut oil. While generally considered safe in moderation, excessive intake of any fat can contribute to calorie surplus.

Allergen info

Peanut oil is derived from peanuts, which are one of the FDA's nine major allergens. Individuals with peanut allergies should avoid products containing peanut oil.
