Cooking oil (also known as edible oil) is a plant or animal liquid
Cooking oil is typically a liquid at room temperature, although some oils that contain saturated fat, such as coconut oil, palm oil and palm kernel oil are solid.[1]
There are a wide variety of cooking oils from plant sources such as
Oil can be flavored with aromatic foodstuffs such as herbs, chilies or garlic. Cooking spray is an aerosol of cooking oil.

Cooking with oil



Heating, as well as heating vessels rapidly change characteristics of cooking oil.[21] Oils that are healthy at room temperature can become unhealthy when heated above certain temperatures, especially when heating repeatedly. The toxic risk is linked to oxidation of fatty acids and fatty acids with higher levels of unsaturation are oxidized more rapidly during heating in air.[22] So, when choosing a cooking oil, it is important to match the oil's heat tolerance with the temperature which will be used.[23] and to change frying oil a few times per week.[22] Deep-fat frying temperatures are commonly in the range of 170–190 °C (338–374 °F), less commonly, lower temperatures ≥ 130 °C (266 °F) are used.[24]
The following oils are suitable for high-temperature frying due to their high smoke point:
- Avocado oil
- Mustard oil
- Palm oil
- Peanut oil (marketed as "groundnut oil" in the UK and India)
- Rice bran oil
- Safflower oil
- Olive oil
- Semi-refined sesame oil
- Semi-refined sunflower oil[29]
Less aggressive frying temperatures are frequently used.[30] A quality frying oil has a bland flavor, at least 200 °C (392 °F) smoke and 315 °C (599 °F) flash points, with maximums of 0.1% free fatty acids and 3% linolenic acid.[31] Those oils with higher linolenic fractions are avoided due to polymerization or gumming marked by increases in viscosity with age.[30] Olive oil resists thermal degradation and has been used as a frying oil for thousands of years.[30]
Storing and keeping oil
All oils degrade in response to heat, light, and oxygen.
In a cool, dry place, oils have greater stability, but may thicken, although they will soon return to liquid form if they are left at room temperature. To minimize the degrading effects of heat and light, oils should be removed from cold storage just long enough for use.[citation needed]
By contrast, oils high in saturated fats, such as avocado oil, have relatively long shelf lives and can be safely stored at room temperature, as the low polyunsaturated fat content facilitates stability.[32]
Types and characteristics
Cooking oils are composed of various fractions of fatty acids.[34] For the purpose of frying food, oils high in monounsaturated or saturated fats are generally popular, while oils high in polyunsaturated fats are less desirable.[24] High oleic acid oils include almond, macadamia, olive, pecan, pistachio, and high-oleic cultivars of safflower and sunflower.[35]
Cold-Pressed vs. Refined Cooking Oils
Cold-pressed oils are extracted mechanically without the use of heat or chemical solvents, preserving nutrients and natural flavors, whereas refined oils undergo additional processes like bleaching and deodorization, which can strip beneficial compounds.[36]

Smoke point
The smoke point is marked by "a continuous wisp of smoke".
Above the smoke point are flash and fire points.[54] The flash point is the temperature at which oil vapors will ignite but are not produced in sufficient quantities to stay lit. The flash point generally occurs at about 275–330 °C (527–626 °F).[56] The fire point is the temperature at which hot oil produces sufficient vapors they will catch on fire and burn.[56] As frying hours increase, all these temperature points decrease.[56] They depend more on an oil's acidity than fatty-acid profile.[57]
The smoke point of cooking oils varies generally in association with how oil is refined: a higher smoke point results from removal of impurities and free fatty acids.[55] Residual solvent remaining from the refining process may decrease the smoke point.[57] It has been reported to increase with the inclusion of antioxidants (BHA, BHT, and TBHQ). For these reasons, the published smoke points of oils may vary.[57]

Extraction and refinement
This section needs additional citations for verification. (July 2021) |

Cooking oil extraction and refinement are separate processes. Extraction first removes the oil, typically from a seed, nut or fruit. Refinement then alters the appearance, texture, taste, smell, or stability of the oil to meet buyer expectations.
Extraction
There are three broad types of oil extraction:
- Chemical solvent extraction, most commonly using hexane.
- Pressing, using an expellerpress or cold press (pressing at low temperatures to prevent oil heating).
- Decanter centrifuge.
In large-scale industrial oil extraction you will often see some combination of pressing, chemical extraction and/or centrifuging in order to extract the maximum amount of oil possible.[105]
Refinement
Cooking oil can either be unrefined, or refined using one or more of the following refinement processes (in any combination):[106]
- Distilling, which heats the oil to evaporate off chemical solvents from the extraction process.
- Degumming, by passing hot water through the oil to precipitate out gums and proteins that are soluble in water but not in oil, then discarding the water along with the impurities.
- Neutralization,[107] or deacidification, which treats the oil with sodium hydroxide or sodium carbonate to pull out free fatty acids, phospholipids, pigments, and waxes.
- Bleaching, which removes "off-colored" components by treatment with fuller's earth, activated carbon, or activated clays, followed by heating, filtering, then drying to recoup the oil.
- Dewaxing, or winterizing, improves clarity of oils intended for refrigeration by dropping them to low temperatures and removing any solids that form.
- Deodorizing, by treating with high-heat pressurized steam to evaporate less stable compounds that might cause "unusual" odors or tastes.[108]
- Preservative addition, including antioxidants such as BHA, BHT, and tocopherol to help preserve oils that have been made less stable due to high-temperature processing.
Filtering, a non-chemical process which screens out larger particles, could be considered a step in refinement, although it does not alter the state of the oil.
Most large-scale commercial cooking oil refinement will involve all of these steps in order to achieve a product that's uniform in taste, smell and appearance, and has a longer shelf life.[105] Cooking oil intended for the health food market will often be unrefined, which can result in a less stable product but minimizes exposure to high temperatures and chemical processing.
Waste cooking oil
Proper disposal of used cooking oil is an important waste-management concern. Oil can congeal in pipes, causing sanitary sewer overflow.[109] Because of this, cooking oil should never be dumped in the kitchen sink or in the toilet bowl. The proper way to dispose of oil is to put it in a sealed non-recyclable container and discard it with regular garbage.[110] Placing the container of oil in the refrigerator to harden also makes disposal easier and less messy.
Recycling
Cooking oil can be recycled. It can be used in animal feed, soap, make-up, clothes, rubber, detergents, directly as fuel, and to produce biodiesel.[111][112][113]
In the recycling industry, used cooking oil recovered from restaurants and food-processing industries (typically from deep fryers or griddles) is called yellow grease, recycled vegetable oil (RVO), used vegetable oil (UVO), or waste vegetable oil (WVO).[114]
Grease traps or interceptors collect fats and oils from kitchen sinks and floor drains. The result is called brown grease, and unlike yellow grease its severe contaminants make it much harder to recycle.
Adulteration
Gutter oil and trench oil are terms used in China to describe recycled oil processed to resemble virgin oil, but containing toxic contaminants and sold illegally for cooking; its origin is frequently brown grease from garbage.[115]

The smoke point of an oil depends primarily on its free fatty acid content (FFA) and molecular weight. Through repeated use, as in a deep fryer, the oil accumulates food residues or by-products of the cooking process, that lower its smoke point further. The values shown in the table must therefore be taken as approximate, and are not suitable for accurate or scientific use
