What oil for what temperature ?<\/p><\/div>\n

Been wanting to keep a reminder of the various cooking Oils smoke point. This is the point at which the oil simply burns and is not fit for cooking anymore.<\/p>\n

Often people would say that Olive Oil is not a good oil to use for frying food etc…<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

I would argue that you should try to keep the pan temperature slightly lower rather than simply putting it on full whack and burning everything…<\/p>\n

I have not used Avocado Oil yet, and from the table below it seems that I should at least try it. I was also surprised that Ghee seems to be a lot better than straight butter. Probably the reason it is used so much in Indian food preparation.<\/p>\n
