Peanuts, also known as groundnuts, are legumes that grow underground and belong to the Arachis hypogaea plant species. Despite being classified as a legume, peanuts are often referred to as nuts due to their nutritional profile and culinary uses. Peanuts are typically oval-shaped, with a papery, reddish-brown skin that encases two or more seeds inside. These seeds are yellowish or beige in color and are commonly consumed in various forms, such as raw, roasted, boiled, or ground into peanut butter.
