Questions about Canola oil

Can you fry with canola oil?

Yes. Refined canola oil has a mild flavour and works for shallow-frying and deep-frying; keep the oil below its smoking point and avoid reusing it once it smells stale or turns dark.

Can you use canola oil instead of butter in baking?

Yes: use it in cakes, muffins and quick breads where melted butter or another neutral oil is called for. Because it is liquid, it makes a moister crumb but won’t give the buttery flavour or creaming effect of softened butter.

Is canola oil the same as rapeseed oil?

Canola oil is rapeseed oil made from varieties bred to contain very little erucic acid. The names are often used for similar oils, but canola refers to oil that meets a specific low-erucic-acid standard.

How should you store canola oil?

Keep the bottle tightly closed in a cool, dark cupboard, away from the cooker and direct sunlight. Refrigeration is unnecessary; discard the oil if it develops a paint-like or stale smell.

What can you use instead of canola oil?

For frying, roasting or baking, use another mild-tasting oil such as sunflower oil. Olive oil also works, though its flavour is more noticeable, especially in dressings and cakes.

What does canola oil go well with?

Its neutral flavour suits vinaigrettes, mayonnaise and marinades, and it lets spices shine in stir-fries. For a simple dressing, whisk it with vinegar or lemon juice, mustard and seasoning.

How much canola oil is a usual portion?

A tablespoon is a practical amount for dressing one serving of vegetables or salad, and contains 124 kcal and 14 g of fat. Canola oil is also high in vitamin E.
