"The Ultimate Guide to Selecting the Perfect Cooking Fat"

When it comes to choosing cooking oils, it's best to have two or three options in your kitchen. For all-purpose cooking, olive oil is a popular choice, with regular olive oil, extra virgin olive oil, and "light" oil being the most common options. Avocado oil is another good all-purpose option. For neutral cooking, vegetable oil and canola oil are flavorless and have a high smoke point. Butter is essential for flavor and can be used for baking, sautéing, and pan-frying, but should be avoided for high-temperature cooking. Salted or unsalted butter can be used depending on personal preference and dietary needs.

Avoid Vegetable Oil for Boxed Cake Mix Baking

To add more flavor to boxed cake mixes, skip the neutral-tasting vegetable oil and use more flavorful fats like melted butter, coconut oil, or olive oil instead. Unrefined oils like olive oil or pumpkin seed oil can add a richer flavor profile to the cake. When swapping out fats, it's important to choose the right fat for the flavor of the cake and melt solid fats before adding them to the mix.
