Blanched and Red Peanut Kernels Type

Peanut kernel refers to the part without the shell, which is actually the seed of the peanut. The whole peanut is called fruit or pod. It is also called peanut rice, ground peanut, ground fruit, and Tangren bean. Peanuts are nourishing and can prolong life, so they are also called "longevity fruit" by the people, and like soybeans, they are known as "plant meat" and "vegetarian meat". The nutritional value of peanuts is higher than that of grains and can be compared with eggs.

The export volume of peanut kernels in China is about 50,000 tons per year, more than 90% of which is concentrated in Shandong Province, followed by Hebei, Tianjin, Liaoning, Sichuan, Fujian, and Guangdong. The quality of Laixi peanuts in Shandong Province is famous at home and abroad. Laixi City is known as the "Hometown of Peanuts in China". In 2005, the export of peanuts and peanut products accounted for more than 12% of the country.

In the international market, peanut kernels are graded according to their grain size, that is, the number of peanut kernels per ounce (28.35g), including: ⑴ 60-80 grains per ounce as small grains; ⑵ 40-60 grains per ounce as medium grains; ⑶ 30-40 grains per ounce as large grains; ⑷ 20-30 grains per ounce as extra large grains.

The grain difference between each grade is: small grains are 10 grains plus 60/70 or 70/80, medium and large grains are 5 grains such as 40/45, 45/50, and extra large grains are 2 grains such as 20/22. China now exports graded peanut kernels of large, medium and small grains, with large and medium grains being the main ones. The peanut kernels exported by China are generally reflected in the international market for their uniform grain size, good taste, and no aflatoxin, so they are very popular.

Peanut kernels have a wide range of uses. They are not only the main dried fruit food, but also the main raw material for making food, candy, and oil. There is a vast consumer market both at home and abroad. Peanut kernels have high nutritional value. They are not only rich in fat, protein, and carbohydrates, but also contain a variety of vitamins and inorganic elements. There are also many ways to eat them, such as baking, frying, deep-frying, boiling, and pickling. They are also the main raw material for making sugar, sauce, and canned food. The varieties of peanut kernels are also gradually expanding, which is of great significance to the development of China's food industry and the expansion of exports.
