Firstly, corn germ oil is refined by dephosphorization, deacidification, degumming, decoloration, deodorization and dewaxing on the basis of refined corn oil. It is a clear and transparent oil with a fragrant smell, which can produce rich foam when cooking, so that the ingredients can be better moistened, and it is not easy to be oxidized, and the freshness and original flavor of the ingredients can be maintained. These characteristics of corn germ oil make it more suitable for cooking when frying food.
Secondly, corn germ oil has high stability, which can be kept stable at high temperature and will not produce harmful substances due to overheating, so it is suitable for high temperature cooking. In addition, corn germ oil also helps to lower cholesterol and reduce the risk of cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases.
Although rice oil is also a kind of high-quality edible oil, its smoke point is low, it is easy to produce lampblack and harmful substances at high temperature, and its stability is not as good as that of corn germ oil, so it may not be suitable for high-temperature frying in cooking.
Generally speaking, corn germ oil is more suitable for frying from two aspects: ingredient list and production steps.
