Cooking Oil Tip

**crappie cowboy** · 05-31-2012, 05:43 PM

I posted this tip on the Ar. and Ms. board also... I was a over the road food grade tanker driver before I retired, and one of the things I hauled was vegetable oil.
I delivered to a company east of Nashville, Tn. that bottled the oil for different companies. High price and cheaper brands are all the same oils, except wesson, crisco and maybe one or two more that I can't remember.
So save yourself money, and buy the cheapest price vegetable oil on shelf, it's all the same...

Thank you, I thought some oils had different fat content or boiling points? Any advice on that?

gillblu...No I'm sorry, don't know nothing about that at all.

Certain oils do have different flash / boiling points. It is directly related to fat content within the same type of oil. Higher fat typically equals lower flash point. As for different types of oils (veg, olive, peanut, etc) they all have very different flash / boil points. Peanut has the highest, olive the lowest.

Somethign else I'll pass along, instead of having 2 kinds of oil (fish oil and frechfry/puppy oil), simply toss a handfull of fry in the oil after you get done with your fish and they will absorb the "fishy" taste.

Discard these or feed to the folks you dont like, you know the ones who linger around while your cooking, sampling this and that...lol.

I thought oil was classified by "smoke point", not boiling or flash point, and olive oil is one of the highest smoke points.

some things are the same . in comes in bulk but soeme thing are prossed differen`t for differen`t . we had two independent milk co`s here theywer enough differense that my kids as babies would not drink one brand and the other they would . the owner of the one they didn`t like said the other co got milk from them when they ran short . even my motherinlaw had a dog that could tell the differense .
all Mfg`s do things for differen`t stores . like battries we had a plant here DELFI which is general motor plant they built for sears and anyone they could git a contrac from .but they build to their specs . several brands of lawn mowers are builkt in the same plant .

I have always take a potato quarter it and throw it in cooker until done. Takes all the fish taste out.
