What Is a Peanut Air Blancher?
Unlike traditional sand roller or abrasive blanchers, the
Peanut Air Blancher uses compressed air pulses to remove the red skin from
roasted peanuts (and other nuts like cashews, hazelnuts, and chickpeas) —
without any abrasive contact. This innovative approach:
• Preserves the kernel’s integrity
• Prevents oil leakage and surface scratches
• Extends shelf life and maintains product appearance
