Oils and Butters

Change your oils, change your life! A high quality cooking oil is one of the most important components of a healthy lifestyle, and can make a tremendous impact on the flavor and nutritional value of your meals. Look for oils that have been minimally processed, and be sure to use them appropriately- fox example, choose oils with a high smoking point for frying and high heat cooking, and reserve oils with a low smoking point for cold preparations. See our oil chart or our Summer 2005 newsletter for more information on cooking with oils.
