What the AI looks for in Peanut Oils
- Refined vs roasted
- Refined for frying; roasted or unrefined peanut oil for flavor in stir-fries and dressings. Roasted peanut oil smokes sooner and tastes strongly of peanut.
- Allergen status
- Highly refined peanut oil is exempt from US major-allergen labelling, but cold-pressed or roasted versions are not. Refining removes most protein, but allergic diners should still confirm with their clinician.
- Frying volume
- Buy by the volume your fryer needs, and strain and store it cool between uses. Peanut oil is stable and can be reused several times if it is kept clean.
Brands that matter
- LouAna: Frying-oriented refined peanut oil in large sizes.
- Spectrum: Specialty peanut oil.
What to avoid
- Unrefined peanut oil for deep-frying
- Serving peanut-oil-fried food to guests without telling them
