Smoke points

Great. What's that in normal units?

Edit:

Thanks, much more informative than the original graph
- 🥗🔥🔥🍳🔥🔥🔥🍳🔥🔥🔥🔥🍳
Rice Bran oil is my fave with a smoke point of 232 °C (450 °F) and it holds up a long time. I also use it for deep frying. Its not well known in the west and its really great.

Using Fahrenheit 🤡

Allstate is an American company, yes.

What about grape seed and avocados

Grape seed - 421 °F
Avocado - Refined 520 °F
Avocado - Virgin (unrefined) 392 °F
Avocado - Extra virgin (unrefined) 482 °F

I would not heat up olive oil to that point.

The table is missing Rapeseed oil.

And: Fahrenheit! What the f...ck?

Where's Avocado Oil or Ghee butter?T
Is Rapeseed and canola not the same thing? I’m not familiar with rapeseed oil as an American.
- I had never heard of canola before. But I learned today that this is a Canadian brand name of rapeseed oil.
I was going to say there the same thing, but apparently they are/aren't - https://www.tastingtable.com/1066770/are-canola-and-rapeseed-oil-the-same-thing/
Seems canola is a modified rapeseed plant.

Fahrenfuck

I'll follow this one before that garbage, I'm yet to use sunflower oil that performed worse than canola. Not sure what garbage they are pretending to reference, perhaps some shit Russians stole from Ukraine and shipped off to US?

Edit: slight side note, as the above may be interpreted in different ways. I've only ever bought Sunflower oil produced in Ukraine while in Canada, all of it has been high quality. Have seen some from Balkans (IIRC?) but it was cloudy so didn't even bother trying it. Not saying it's an inherent country of origin issue there, more like Walmart trying to find some cheap shit to make money off of. I think Italy was the only other country I saw as a source once and that was just ridiculously priced, mostly because it was mixed with olive oil.

Odd... I've always seen soybean oil as having a higher smoke point of ~450F

Refined Corn Oil is as high as 460° F

Shout out to algae cooking oil, weighing in at 535 F (280 C) https://algaecookingclub.com/products/algae-cooking-oil

I use it when cooking high heat, and also a few drops to season my cast iron

I’ve started throwing my cast iron into the barbecue while I heat it up before grilling (I heat to 500 for 15-20 mins or so then clean the bbq, then grill, which is perfect for a quick season with most oils)
It’s a great time saver for seasoning it.
I can now reliably do omelettes in the cast iron without any sticking, it actually works better than my non stick
Thanks for the info. If I ever see it cheaper at the store maybe I'll try it out. Sounds promising but the price sounds a bit steep.

It’s missing my favorite cooking oil: Lard.
