What Are The Health Benefits Of Using Peanut Oil?

Peanut oil, also known as the groundnut or Andrei oil, is a refined, edible vegetable oil made by steaming the edible seeds of the peanut plant or by extracting them in a hydraulic press.

Peanut or groundnut is the mature fruit or seed of Arachis Hypognea L. The plant is a small annual herb, with odd-pinnate leaves and yellow papilionaceous flowers, it is native to Brazil but is widely cultivated in the southern United States, China, and other subtropical regions. Peanuts are used to make vegetable oil used in the American tropics for cooking.

The peanut used to make this type of oil corresponds to a variety whose fatty acid ratio is considerably higher. Aceso groundnut oil is obtained simply by pressing, which is why it is considered 100% Natural & Pure Cold Pressed oil.

This oil is very light in colour and its ability to withstand high temperatures makes it an ideal oil in the kitchen as frying oil. Its excellent aroma and perfume make it suitable for seasoning salads and meals, marinating, sauteing vegetables, etc. since its roasted flavour gives it a pleasant smoky tone and notes of roasted nuts that give it a pleasant finish on the palate.

This oil also has a high cooking or smoking point (215-220ºC) which makes it an excellent oil for sautéing and searing, which, combined with other oils, increases their useful life in frying. This is one of the reasons why peanut oil is the most used in frying and sautéing in oriental cuisine.

Depending on the manufacturing process, cold-pressed peanut oil can have a wide range of flavours, ranging from mild and sweet to tangy and nutty.
