Ce ulei este mai sănătos pentru gătit? Alegerea se schimbă dacă prăjești la foc mare • Newsweek România

Choosing the right cooking oil depends on various factors, including the type of oil, its fat composition, and cooking temperature. Refined canola oil is recommended for high-heat cooking due to its stability and low saturated fat content. Extra virgin olive oil is ideal for salads and moderate cooking, offering health benefits associated with the Mediterranean diet. Cold-pressed oils retain nutrients but are sensitive to high heat. Sunflower oil is acceptable but less balanced than canola or olive oil. It's advisable to keep two types of oils in the kitchen: one for salads and moderate cooking, and another refined oil for high-heat applications.
