How people cook with it
This oil is a fundamental component in countless cooking methods. It is used for everything from simple sautéing to more complex baking.

When cooking, you can heat this oil in a pan over medium heat for sautéing vegetables or searing meats. For baking, it can be used as a liquid fat to add moisture and tenderness to doughs and batters. It is also excellent for deep frying, providing a clean taste that does not overpower the food. Whisk it into vinaigrettes or emulsify it into sauces. Its high smoke point makes it suitable for high-heat cooking methods.
