What are the official /ck/ power rankings for cooking oils?

>> No.12548793

Different oils for different purposes. For all purpose cooking any neutral "salad" oil is fine (canola, soy, "vegetable", etc.). For deep frying you just want something with a high smoke point and a low price point (peanut is generally cheap at ethnic grocery stores). You don't cook with extra virgin olive oil, but regular olive oil is good to blend with a neutral oil for extra flavor, and straight olive oil is good for a lot of things where you want that flavor, like simple roasted vegetables. Fancy heath food store oils are only really for seasoning your cast iron/carbon steel (flax seed, grape seed, etc.).

Those are my favorite oils as well but sometimes it’s interesting to experiment with other oils.
My mom is one of those weird orthorexic freaks who won’t eat any oils other than olive oil, avocado oil and walnut oil. I came up with a walnut oil mayonnaise recipe for her that tastes pretty good because olive oil mayonnaise tastes like ass. I dunno I thought it was pretty fun.

too much omega-3 is too. it's all about balancing them. eat more fish or take an omega-3 supplement, and none of that vegan shit either.

>> No.12549038

Avocado, grapeseed or sunflower oil for heavy frying. Sesame oil for very light frying and only in Asian dishes.

Butter for light frying or baking.

Extra virgin olive for post-cooking drizzle, bread dipping and faggy shit like salad

Absolutely no onionsbean, canola or "vegetable" oil for obvious reasons.

Different oils for different purposes. I like extra virgin olive oil for salads, pizzas, soups, etc. If I need to fry something at a high temperature I will use avocado or grapseseed oil. Sesame is really nice to add a bit of flavour.

grapeseed for searing and grilling
olive for everything else

I'd choose grapeseed or avacado if I had to choose one. If you cook hotter than the smoke point of the oil you're baking carcinogens into your food.

>> No.12549986

I actually like to use canola or generic vegetable oil for my searing. I know the smoke point isn’t as high but it gives it that fast food flavor that I like. You just don’t get that with avocado or olive oil.

If you love truffle oil then sometime try mixing it in with butter for popcorn. Just like 7-8 drops. Amplifies the shit out of butter flavor and it's almost better than sex. Also I like a few drops in scrambled eggs while they cook. Fucking amazing

I buy a frozen duck from the asian supermarket and render the fat. Gives me like 300ml fat and a whole duck for like 10 euros. Pan sear the breasts, "confit" the legs with sous vide and make stock from the rest. Other than that I use butter and peanut oil.
