Selection skills of household edible oil

1. Choose edible oil suitable for your own cooking method. Different edible oils have different smoke points, that is, the high temperature that can be tolerated. If you often cook at high temperature, such as stir-frying or frying food, it is a better choice to choose edible oil with high smoke point, which can reduce oil smoke.

2. The common edible oil preparation processes in the market are leaching method and pressing method. No matter which process is adopted, edible oil is safe. If you want the oil to be more fragrant, you can choose the pressed edible oil. If you want to save some money, you can choose edible oil prepared by leaching.

3. The quality grade is usually marked on the label of vegetable oil, generally from grade one to grade four, while blended oil is not marked with grade. Higher grade (lower grade) edible oil has higher refining degree, higher smoke point, clearer color, but lighter flavor. If you like rich vegetable oil, you can choose a lower grade oil, such as third-grade rapeseed oil. However, due to the low smoke point, it is not suitable for high temperature cooking.
