Guest guest Posted April 28, 2006 Report Share Posted April 28, 2006 Does anyone use peanut oil? If so will the food taste like peanuts? I picked up the wrong oil and noticed it last night when I was unpacking groceries. I really don't want to drive back to the store but I also don't want peanut flavoted fried potatoes either.

Guest guest Posted April 28, 2006 Report Share Posted April 28, 2006 Peanut Oil is the preferred oil (for most people) for frying. Peanut oil doesn't make food taste like peanuts, just like vegetable oil doesn't make food taste like vegetables. I use peanut oil for french fries, and vegetable oil for dough-nuts (that's pretty much all I really use oil for). Peanut Oil is what " they " recommend for deep fryers. How are you heating the oil?

" ~~ i use peanut oil. It is very good, and good for you. It sure never flavors any of my stir-fries with a peanut taste, or any other food recipe i use it in. It is truly benign.

Guest guest Posted April 29, 2006 Report Share Posted April 29, 2006 Penut Oils is idealy the oil to use since it has the highest smoke point (the least likely oil to catch on fire) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
