About Peanut oil
Peanut oil, derived from pressed peanuts, is a popular cooking oil known for its light flavor and high smoke point, making it ideal for frying and sautéing. Native to South America but now prominent in Asian, African, and American cuisines, it enhances dishes with a subtle nutty aroma. Rich in heart-healthy monounsaturated fats, peanut oil supports cardiovascular health when consumed in moderation. It also contains vitamin E, an antioxidant that helps protect cells from damage. However, its high omega-6 fatty acid content may contribute to inflammation if not balanced with omega-3s in the diet. With minimal saturated fat, peanut oil is a healthier alternative to animal fats, but its caloric density means portion control is essential. People with peanut allergies should avoid it unless it's clearly labeled as allergen-free. Versatile and flavorful, peanut oil is a staple for cooks seeking both performance and taste.
