Peanut Oil
Peanut Oil is an oil pressed from peanuts and commonly used in Asian and West African cuisines for frying and stir‑frying because of its relatively neutral flavor and high smoke point. It is almost entirely fat, providing 100g of fat per 100g, and is typically used in small amounts as a cooking medium or for finishing. Nutritionally it supplies mainly monounsaturated fats and some vitamin E, which can be beneficial, but it contributes negligible protein, fiber, or other micronutrients and is energy‑dense, so it’s best used in moderation.
