Vegetable oil is used in cooking all the time. These are not only salads with vegetable oil, but also any toasts for sauces, soups, second courses. Vegetable oil is also added to the yeast dough. Pancakes, fritters and pies are baked in vegetable oil.
The ideal oil for cooking and baking is coconut oil, even though it is unrefined. Feel free to grease a baking sheet or frying pan and even fry steaks.
Remember that 1 tablespoon of oil contains 120 kcal. Measure the oil with spoons, do not pour from the bottle. I recommend using sprays.
If you want to get the most out of the oils you use, combine 2-3 types, for example, linseed and olive oil for salads and avocado oil for baking. Diversity is the key point.
Vegetable oil is obtained when it is squeezed from the fruits, roots, seeds, stems of suitable plants. In principle, you can squeeze oil from almost any plant.
Most of the vegetable oil is triglycerides. Their content in the product is almost 97 percent. The remaining three percent are phosphatides, lipochromes, waxes, fatty acids, vitamins and tocopherols. In addition, these three percent of vegetable oil also contains substances that are responsible for the taste and color of the product.
Vegetable oil is divided into refined and unrefined. Unrefined sunflower oil is an oil with a richer aroma and taste. Since vegetable oil is made from plants, there can be no cholesterol in it by default, since cholesterol is a substance of animal origin.

Delicious, juicy, tender and spicy at the same time. It was my culinary experiment, but I charmed the whole family, so I decided to share the recipe. It is important that you do not replace iceberg lettuce with Peking cabbage (it will be tough) or ordinary lettuce leaves (dry and bitter). And be sure to take a good seasoning for the turkey, as it, along with the Greek yogurt sauce, gives the whole sandwich a taste.
Ropa vieja-in translation means “old clothes”, “torn rags”, “rags”. This is boiled beef, then disassembled into fibers, in a spicy sauce of tomatoes, onions, sweet peppers and olives. In appearance, the dish resembles torn scraps of bright fabrics, which is why it received such an unusual name.
Today I’m back with a recipe from an old Soviet book. He attracted my attention with an unusual way of making potato dough. It looks like a potato sponge cake, which is probably why the dough turns out to be unusually tender. The filling in the pie is chicken-mushroom with the use of dried mushrooms. Breadcrumbs on the surface of the pie create an unusually crisp crust. In general, it’s delicious! Very TASTY!
