Choosing the Best Everyday Cooking Oil

When it comes to cooking oils, I’ve never been loyal to just one brand or type. For years, grapeseed oil was my go-to, mostly because I could always remember it had a high smoke point and wouldn’t break the bank. But honestly, I’m not deep frying at home—just the usual skillet stuff, sautéing veggies, or tossing together a quick stir-fry. As a home cook who loves experimenting, I rarely follow a single recipe. Instead, I’ll scroll through a few, mash them together, and swap ingredients based on what’s in my pantry. That’s why I want an oil that’s versatile, reliable, and doesn’t cost twice as much as the alternatives. So, if you could only keep one high smoke point oil in your kitchen, what would it be? Why? I’m curious if there’s something better out there for everyday use—especially for those of us who like to mix things up and keep cooking fun and stress-free! #CookingTips #KitchenEssentials #HomeCooking #Foodie #OilDebate #Food #Cooking
