In pan-roasted peanut meal, methanethiol, 2,3-pentanedione, 3-(methylthio)propanal, 2-methylbutanal, 3-methylbutanal and the popcorn-like 2-acetyl-1-pyrroline had the highest odour activity values, and aroma recombination confirmed the importance of methanethiol and lipid degradation products in the characteristic roasted peanut aroma.
SCOPE
Raw peanuts and freshly pan-roasted peanut meal, not peanut butter itself, whose roasted peanut smell it explains only in part.
