That makes so much more sense. I have been told by many that I shouldn’t be cooking in extra virgin olive oil. I feel relieved hearing to how well you have explained as to what contributes to a good/healthy oil and what it means to heat or cook in an oil. Thank you.

I've been learning to bake bread and using EVOO. It changes the taste of the bread and kinda turns it yellow. I'm not sure I like it. It seems too flavourful.

I mistakenly bought a bottle of extra virgen olive oil, It says it contains trans fat, however the other normal olive oil says organic and it doesn't contain trans fat in the nutritional label.

Is it ok in plastic bottles or do u recommend glass bottles?

So if I fry a steak, and I want to seer it as well, the frying pan gets way way hotter than the oil
Smoke point. If I added the oil late or rubbed the meat with it first, it does give the appearance the oil is smoking? The thermometer struggles to give me the oil reading instead of the pan reading. All that to say…..can I still make the pan ultra hot?!

[WilliamCowper]
