GROUNDNUT OIL (PEANUT OIL)
Pure, premium-grade Groundnut Oil extracted from carefully selected Nigerian peanut seeds (Arachis hypogaea). This golden, light-colored oil features a subtle nutty aroma and neutral taste that enhances the natural flavors of your dishes without overpowering them. With a high smoke point of approximately 450°F (232°C), it is ideal for deep frying, sautéing, stir-frying, and baking traditional Nigerian delicacies such as chin-chin, puff-puff, yam fries, and jollof rice. The oil remains stable at high temperatures, making it perfect for commercial and household cooking applications.
