COOKING OIL

[iandboy]

I attended a cooking demo before and said that the best and healthiest to use is olive oil.... kala namin canola oil pwede na

[haiku]

grapeseed oil; peanut oil also good for high temps but can leave slight trace of peanut taste

[Remi]

I only use 2 kinds of oil, olive oil for Western food and sunflower oil for Asian food.  These are both low in saturated fat.  And less likely to cause pimples. Coconut oil I believe is quite bad.

[artegirl]

canola oil since it has a high smokepoint and 0 saturated fat

[FridaGee]

vegetable oil lang gamit namin. ok din sa kids

[shadjee]

i also use canola oil... and for special handaan esp for pasta recipes: olive oil

[justbeingme]

extravirgin olive oil
virgin olive oil

[stellara]

for everyday use: canola oil
for special occasions: olive oil

[orangepulp]

olive oil and canola oil

[lukrecia]

napanood ko dati sa jessica soho, sabi ni Perlas (presidential candidate) the healthiest oil daw is coconut oil, next is olive oil...

[piggyxoxo]

^ Totally agree with you!

Unrefined, organic, coconut oil from the Philippines. It can withstand very high temperatures and you can use it as an alternative to butter for frying, baking etc.

I buy it here in Toronto and it is super expensive. Anyone flying to Canada? Please bring me some! :-)

Why buy expensive and imported olive oil when you can get coconut oil for a cheaper price?

[bibits]

we use canola oil

[jarjarbinks]

mas mahal ang sunflower oil compared to canola di ba?

i used to use canola oil before but switched to sunflower oil na. pricey but it is okay naman. high in good cholesterol and tolerates high smokepoint.

have you seen any store selling SAFFLOWER OIL? <------- one of the healthiest din...

olive oil for salads and saute

[dahon]

Oh no, it gets confusing.  According to this comparison table, avoid coconut oil daw.

Thank you!

Extra virgin Coconut oil is abundant in the Philippines (cheaper) and I just recently have mixed/substituted it for olive oil and butter.

I am going to fill my luggage with coconut oil if I ever visit.

[frankikay]

sunflower oil for me, tapos after mag fry i drain ko muna sa paper.

[jarjarbinks]

confusing talaga ang reviews regarding coconut oil kasi ang tinitignan lang nila will be the cholestrol content of coconut oil. true na mataas ang coconut content ng coconut oil pero isa ito sa may pinakamataas na heat tolerance.

olive oil has one of the lowest heat tolerance. ibig sabihin kapag nagamit ang olive oil sa high heat (let say sa pagprito or deep fry), mag bi-break down na ang molecules at magiging iba na ang effect nang molecule na yun when digested.

canola and vegetable oil are good for everyday cooking. zero cholesterol so healthy sa heart.

but i believe that olive oil is the best and healthiest! yun nga lang meron siyang distinct smell and taste if you are using the pure olive oil. sa experience ko, it can alter the taste of food lalo na yung lutong pinoy. so to solve the problem, ang binibili ko "extra light tasting" olive oil. ok sya, parang regular cooking oil.
