Smokin 'Hot: Are you cooking with virgin olive oil?

I use extra virgin olive oil with generosity and without discrimination. E 'in salad dressings, marinades and the bottom of the pan, it is dumped into the blender for hummus sprinkled on vegetables to the roasting pan and spread on cast iron. I love the smell, taste, and the sound of my overpriced olivey is tin, which I bought because I loved the design and now my decant the olive oil cheapest

I began to realize, however, that my ways promiscuouscan be a downside. The "smoke point" of an oil (the temperature at which it starts to burn and aged) is low enough for the extra virgin olive oil (320 degrees Fahrenheit), it is 50% smaller than most thin / light-processed extra olive oil and corn oil.

Why is it important? Because the smoke point, the oil starts to emit smoke gases, the flavor deteriorates and nutrients decreased. Not that there is so horriblethe use of oil on the "smoke point" is just that it is no longer always the quality of oil, you probably have in the first place. I still have some time, the butter, brown the meat, for example, even though I know you could smoke just because I prefer to be a bit 'of sweet butter, with the risk of a hint of sweet smoke.

As a general rule is that vegetable oils tend to have a smoke point higher than animal fats (corn oil you can cook at a highertemps of butter) and more refined oil has a smoke point higher than the less processed (rape seed oil can withstand high temps, but the linseed oil can not and "light" olive oil is more stable of the pure material.)

It is also noted that his coconut oil saturated fat (like butter and lard), and for some people who consume a can lead to increased levels of cholesterol. E 'is increasingly clear that high cholesterol does not causeHeart disease eating whole foods with high cholesterol (butter, eggs) do not increase the possibility that disease. Too high trans fat, and gross over-consumption of food, there are more patients much faster than a clump of butter, to get into the pan.
