CHOOSING THE RIGHT COOKING OIL

flavored oils.
Suitable: Pure corn oil, blended vegetable oil, soybean oil, sunflower
oil, grape seed oil, peanut oil
Not suitable: Olive oil, walnut oil, lard
COOKING WITH OIL
Cooking oil can enhance the food’s flavor –
or spoil its taste. As with any
other food component, freshness and correct handling of the oil is the
key to successful deep-frying results.
The quality of the oil decreases with use at high temperatures. Food
particles, water and other liquids will further lower its quality, therefore:
•
Do not mix different cooking oils.
•
Only use fresh and clean cooking oils:
‒
Regularly remove burnt food particles while frying. Always use
utensils that are safe to immerse into hot oils without damaging
