  • not working for me :D

  • @trainlinezoo I do know that both duck fat and butter give the food a great taste - however the price to pay in cholesterol and saturated fats is too high for me to use them, so I almost always use olive oil (as I'm portuguese ) and very rarely fry things, so barely use common veg oil). I only use good quality olive oil, with very low acid %, and evoo for salads and dressings, as I feel it's a waste to use it when cooking - most of the subtle flavor differences will be lost.

  • @esgalhado I've switched from rice bran oil to a combination of clarified butter, dash of salt and evoo. Clarified butter can take heat without breaking down and gives a nice taste without the fat. I''m also using rendered duck fat these days - it's a very nice taste as well. Research the duck fat - its a great switch from butter and you can get it on Amazon then freeze it. You can even get a meat needle and thread duck fat into your next roast or loin for melted marbling.

  • @trainlinezoo You realize that's a myth right? Olive oil, like any other oil, simply should not be heated to it's smoke point, as this will chemically deteriorate it. Anyway, why would you have any need to cook your food at such high temperatures? Unless all you do is deep frying, but then again that's worse to your health than overheating olive oil once in a while...

  • Actually, in most mediterranean countries, if you let the onions get brown or burned in anyway, that means you've done it too much. Also, don't use any regular oil, use olive oil, much better flavor and health benefits. And you don't need to use a great quantity of it either. Just pass around the onions for a bit in medium/high flame and start adding other ingredients. If it starts sticking it means you have to lower the flame and add some water. Simple.

  • hahah, funny stuff.

  • ive discovered a new method when sauteing. i can use less oil for thigns like musrooms with this technique and cook on very high heat withotu burning or sticking. i gradully add little amounts of water like half a teaspoon and this prevents sticking and creates huge steam clouds. what is this technique now as and what are the consequences of using this method. i haven't seen many people do this method. it seems to allow unlimited cooking on high heat without sticking or burning using water

  • There are lots of people who enjoy cooking. I myself like fast food. Easy. Done Deal and quick. Clean. No need to wash dishes. No need to clean up. No need to smell the house.
