Peanut oil: How Many Grams in a Teaspoon?
Peanut oil is the king of deep-frying due to its high smoke point and neutral taste. When frying, the oil-to-food ratio is key to temperature control; weighing your oil ensures you have the critical mass needed for crispy, non-greasy results.

- Refined peanut oil (common for frying) is neutral and does not taste like nuts. However, roasted or cold-pressed peanut oil retains a strong peanut flavor and is used for finishing, not frying.
