Cooking Oils and Their Smoking Points

December 4, 2010 by hellnotesforbeauty | Leave a Comment

I just ordered this skillet from CSN stores this week (full review on customer service and skillet coming soon). I initially wanted a saute pan that could double for a frying pan if needed. But then I came across this article which helped clarify and narrow down my search.

I don’t eat a lot of fried foods but when I do I like to have it homemade that way it’s fresh, crispy and tasty. As with anything fried the oil is what matters especially when it concerns taste. Which got me thinking about which oil would be the best to fry with. While researching, I came across the smoking points of oils, which turned out to be a very interesting cooking tidbit to know.

 The smoking point of oils is the point at which the oil starts to not only give off smoke but also the point at which the oil begins to breakdown, releasing unhealthy free radicals. Reaching the smoking point of any oil starts to destroy the many different qualities each oil possesses as well as change it’s flavor.

The higher the smoking point of the oil the better it is. Here is a brief list of oils and their smoking points: {Source}

-Avocado oil 520°F
-Safflower oil 510°F

-High quality (low acidity) extra virgin olive oil 405°F

-Coconut oil 350°F
-Extra virgin olive oil 320°F
-Almond oil 420°F
-Peanut oil 440°F

For baking: Coconut, palm, canola and high oleic safflower and sunflower oil work best.

For frying: Because they stand up well to the heat, avocado, peanut, palm and sesame oil are ideal for frying.

For sautéing: Many oils are great for sautéing, including avocado, canola, coconut, grapeseed, olive, sesame and high oleic safflower and sunflower oils.

For dipping, dressings and marinades: When it comes to making dressings and marinades, or finding oil that’s perfect to serve alongside crusty bread for dipping, you’re looking for terrific flavor. For this purpose look to flax, olive, peanut, toasted sesame or walnut oil. {Source}

Right now I cook and dress my salads with Extra Virgin Olive Oil. I’ve tried coconut oil and surprisingly doesn’t leave any trace of coconut flavor. I really liked it but seems like the boyfriend’s stomach was a bit sensitive to coconut oil so I had to switch to Olive Oil.

I’m really curious about avocado oil not only does it have a high smoke point, but can be used for any beauty regimen as well. I have been on the hunt for avocado cooking oil for a while to no avail. Hopefully my natural health food store stocks up at least with one bottle like I requested. I’m just in the mood for some good ol’ fried fish…..maybe a whiting fillet or a red snapper? lol

Summer Skin Prep Dry Bushing is one of my favori Summer Skin Prep 

Dry Bushing is one of my favorite skin care routines and not only is it topically beneficial to remove dead skin, reveal soft skin, and treat cellulite, but also has many health benefits overall.  One of the most important health benefits of dry brushing is the ability to stimulate the lymphatic system. The lymphatic system is made up of a network of tissues and organs that fights infections, bacteria in the blood and other toxins and is a essential part of the immune system which supports the body's defense against viruses, bacteria, infections and supports the body's natural detoxification processes. The Lymphatic system consists of Lymph fluid which is a water like substance made of white blood cells, among other immune fighting cells that protect against bacteria and infections in the blood.

One of the most efficient ways to detox is through the skin and dry brushing stimulates blood circulation which is needed for proper detoxification. Another way to stimulate the lymphatic system is by sweating with some form of physical exercise since the lymphatic system has no central pump to move the fluid through the network as efficiently. So regular exercise and stimulating techniques like dry brushing and massages help the body maintain strength and balance to support the immune system.

I dry brush 2-3 times a week or every other day with a natural bristle brush you can find at most holistic wellness stores and sites near you. 

All you need is 5 minutes before you shower for smooth soft skin with the added health benefits.

How to Dry Brush 
Start at the soles of your feet and brush upward to the stomach, toward the heart.

For the stomach, work in a clockwise direction.

Use firm, small strokes upward, or work in a circular motion.

When you get up to your upper body, start at your hands, up to your arms toward the heart.

Lightly and delicately brush your chest area toward the heart.

Make sure your motions are slow and gentle so you don't tear, scratch or irritate the skin.

Self Initiation The word "initiate" simply means Self Initiation

The word "initiate" simply means to start.  The moment you start to search for truth in any way, shape or form, you have actually started on your path of initiation. From then on, your initiation deepens in direct proportion to your efforts. Remember, input=output. There are many stages in any person's spiritual path. Each experience in a person's life journey is an initiation in itself, as certain realizations are made. Again, these are personal realizations and are dictated by your own progress and level of advancement. These, levels, have nothing to do with with the grades and titles adopted by "tribes", "covens", "spiritual house". An initiate advances by becoming aware. -Phillip Cooper

It is very important to build a personal relationship and foundation with the concept of what "spirituality" means to you.  Spirituality does not mean you have to be subordinate to anything or anyone outside of you. It does not mean that if you interact with your spirit guides or spiritual gifts that you will be "cursed" for doing it "wrong".  There is no right or wrong in your spiritual development, there is only truth, your truth.  Just because something is different does not mean its wrong, just that what works for me, may not work for you.

Many people nowadays rush to "initiate" into a religion, tradition or following without first honoring their own individuality. Not saying that a community is bad, just that each individual that makes up that whole should have some sense of their individual strengths.  If everyone is the same and no individual variations are displayed then you're technically in a cult when often times than not, the "leader" is demeaning, withholds information and manipulates others on the basis of the followers perceived weakness.

You are an individual.  There is no one else like you in existence, so it naturally follows that there is only one path for you to follow. Your Own.  Your path leads to truth, not someone else's truth, but your own truth concerning your magical true self and your relationship with the universe.  No teacher could ever lead you to truth. All that can ever be done is to show you the way.
Ancestral Perspective In order for you to be bor Ancestral Perspective 

In order for you to be born, you need two parents, four grandparents, eight great grandparents, 16 second great grandparents, 32 third great grandparents, etc. If you go all the way to ninth great grandparents, that’s 2,048  ancestors. If you go a little further to 12 generations, you have 4,094  ancestors.

Your DNA is from those 4,094 people that lived over the last 400 + years 

Think about that for a second especially when attempting to embrace, implement and integrate Ancestral veneration into our “modern” lifestyle. A society that overlooks traumas or the trend of “healers” seeking to heal others without addressing their own wounds. We must heal our current relationships especially those parental and familial wounds. Understand who/what hurt our parents, their parents and beyond. 
 
Think about how much trauma, pain, suffering, fear, and all of the low-density energy that was experienced by those people that lived in times where they didn’t have as much safety, knowledge, information, and security as we do now. 

It seems as though we have all this information and accessibility but refuse to acknowledge the truth. Ignorance simply means “to ignore” it is the root of the word, ignore what is so presently in our human experience. Life is beautiful, but the gesture of existence comes with its stipulations. 

We are here to live our lessons, material possessions are only consequentials to this realm, successive side effects of living in our truth and purpose.
“...the truth holds the greatest magic, the grea “...the truth holds the greatest magic, the greatest beauty and sometimes the greatest danger.”
