What is the healthiest high heat cooking oil?

Answer 1

Refined oils such as vegetable, canola, corn, grapeseed, safflower and sunflower are all designated as high heat oils, meaning they can withstand approximately 450F.

But basically, deep-frying is NOT healthy.

Answer 2

Somewhere I read coconut oil is the best,. really the scientists add more confusion to the debate

Answer 3

Rapeseed. (canola in the USA I believe). About as high in unsaturates and polyunsaturates as olive oil but has a much higher smoke point. Olive oil breaks down under high heat and the level of saturates increases.

Answer 4

Olive oil has a relatively lower smoke point compared to other oils, so it's best for low and medium-heat cooking. It's also one of the healthiest oils to use when baking.
