Frying Oil

Frying Oil is a pantry staple used worldwide for frying, roasting, dressings and baking; it is a generic term for culinary fats extracted from plants or seeds and is prized for adding flavor and mouthfeel. Nutritionally it is very energy-dense and mainly a source of fat, providing about 87.7g of fat per 100g, and many common oils also supply monounsaturated fats, some omega‑3s and vitamin E. While useful for cooking, Frying Oil contains little protein or fiber and should be used in moderation — choosing oils higher in monounsaturated fats (and using modest amounts) supports heart health better than frequently using oils high in saturated fat.
