Tag: Blending oils

According to food scientists, many off-the-shelf 'vegetable oil' products are already a blend of different oils, proving that mixing oils is a common practice. Knowing which cooking oils can be mixed safely and effectively can unlock new flavors, optimize nutritional benefits, and improve heat tolerance in your dishes.

Both sunflower oil and canola oil are common neutral-flavored cooking oils, and in many commercial 'vegetable oil' blends, they are already combined. This practice of mixing oils is not only safe but can offer unique culinary advantages, from optimizing smoke points to balancing nutritional profiles.
