What it is
Refined peanut oil is a vegetable oil made from peanuts. The refining process removes impurities, flavor compounds, and allergens, resulting in a neutral-tasting oil that is clear and light in color. It is commonly used in cooking and food manufacturing.
Why it's used
Manufacturers use refined peanut oil as a cooking oil and as an ingredient in processed foods. Its neutral flavor and high smoke point make it suitable for frying, baking, and as a base for dressings and sauces. It is often found in snack bars, baked goods, and frozen desserts.
Health notes
Refined peanut oil is generally recognized as safe (GRAS) by the FDA for use in food. It is primarily a source of fat. JECFA has evaluated peanut oil and set an acceptable daily intake. While highly refined oils contain very low levels of peanut protein, individuals with severe peanut allergies should consult with their healthcare provider regarding its consumption.
Allergen info
Peanut oil is derived from peanuts, which are one of the 9 FDA major allergens. However, the refining process significantly reduces peanut protein content, and many with peanut allergies can tolerate highly refined peanut oil. Consult a healthcare professional for personalized advice.
