For the health of your heart and other organs, it is important to replace “bad” fats with “good” ones.
The most effective method is to use vegetable oil to cook with.
Here is a list of oils that contain less saturated fat and more “good” fats:
- Canola oil;
- Corn oil;
- Safflower oil;
- Soybean oil;
- Sunflower oil;
- Vegetable oil.
In itself, sesame, avocado, and rice oil are much healthier, but they are more expensive and cannot be purchased in all supermarkets.
To keep vegetable oil healthy, you should follow these recommendations:
- Read the label - you need to know which oil is intended for frying and which for salads;
- Do not use it if the oil causes fire or smoke;
- If the oil has a sharp, pungent or unpleasant smell, it is either expired or has been stored incorrectly;
- Do not reheat food fried in oil;
- When you finish frying one dish, you should wash the pan (it is not allowed to cook another dish in the same oil);
- If you do not use it often, buy oil packaged in a small container;
- Oil should be stored in a cool and dark place.
