Did You Know?
Different oils have different smoke points and have different uses. Use canola or sunflower oil for deep frying and avocado, grapeseed or refined olive oil for cooking on high heat. A lower smoke point oil like extra virgin olive oil can be used for medium-heat cooking or roasting in the oven. Finishing oils include unrefined extra virgin olive oil and sesame oil.
