Sunflower oil for frying stuff that needs large amounts of oil (especially potato and onion).
Using extra virgin olive oil for frying meat is a waste. Save it for the salads and other stuff that you add on later

^ Why would it be a waste? I only use a few drops, to lubricate the meat a bit.

It won't taste any different from regular olive oil when it's used for cooking

That's correct. I thought you were comparing olive oil in general with other types of oil. Indeed the difference between regular and extra virgin olive oil isn't in taste, only in chemical components.

Also, apparently Lybian oil is now in fashion, much more than Irakian oil. You can see that by comparing what country is the American army leaving and what country is the American army getting into. Tongue

Dude, were you two just about to argue about cooking oil? Tongue
 
Btw, I have no preference, probably olive but maybe canola.

Rapeseed oil is as "healthy" as olive oil and has similar components. For taste olive oil wins though.

I thought rapeseed is only used for bio-fuel. Is rapeseed oil actually available to buy in stores for cooking?

Peanut for frying.  Extra virgin olive oil for dressings and other cold applications.  Toasted sesame is essential in some dishes.

Yep.  They are absolutely the best you can get on the East Coast, at least.

There used to be a place in Wildwood (Jersey Shore) that had unbelievably good fries (cooked in peanut oil), but I think they stopped doing that.  :(


There's some better shacks holed away in Philly.

Major omission. Travel UK's countryside certain parts of  the year you can't avoid fields full of those yellow rapeseed flowers - must be one of the major UK crops. BTW one of those achronistic blunders in the movie Enigma (set in the early 40's) was to show the stars driving through country roads next to fields of flowering rape - not a common crop until the 80's in the UK.
 
BTW how habits have changed, 40 years ago vegetable cooking oils took a distant second place to animal fats. But then the conneisseurs still reckon goose fat for roost potatoes. I can also remember my gran feeding me dripping sandwiches in the late 50's, beef dripping being the favourite, when nobody had heard of cholesterol.
