People think about peanut oil as a great frying oil with a high smoke point. But in the US, the way we get that high smoke point and turn peanut oil into this great frying oil is by processing it. And in the process we remove all the amazing fragrant and delicious qualities that make peanut oil so popular around the world, especially throughout Asia.
