章 439: Chapter 439: Street Debate

The oil was clear and carried the fragrance of peanuts; as soon as it was scooped into the wok, the surrounding people immediately crowded around.

"This oil looks just like lard, and the scent is different from that of lard. It's that kind of fragrance, oh, it's indescribable, but it's just so aromatic!"

"This is peanut oil, made from pressed peanuts."

Chen Nuo began explaining, "Because peanuts are a bit more expensive than soybeans, it's two wen for one and a half liang of oil. You've all eaten peanuts before, right?"

Everyone had naturally eaten peanuts and nodded in agreement.

"I knew peanuts were fragrant, but I had no idea they could be pressed for oil, and that the oil itself would also be so fragrant."

"Each type of oil carries its own flavor, and dishes cooked with this oil also taste particularly good," said Chen Nuo.
