Grapeseed oil can be used for high-heat cooking methods like searing and frying because of its high smoke point. It is also excellent for baking, as its neutral taste will not interfere with the flavors of your baked goods. When making vinaigrettes or marinades, its lightness helps to emulsify ingredients without adding a heavy mouthfeel. It is also a good option for pan-frying fish or chicken.
