About Roasted peanut

A roasted peanut is a peanut kernel heated until its flavour and texture change through roasting. It is eaten as a snack and used as an ingredient or topping in various foods. The name does not specify whether the peanuts were roasted with their skins, in oil, or by a dry method, and it does not imply added salt.

Roasted kernels are generally tan to golden inside, with a crisp texture and a more pronounced, toasted flavour than raw peanuts. They may be sold whole, split, or chopped, with skins on or removed. Nutrition comparisons depend on roasting method, oil use, and whether the edible skin is included.
