Uses of Coconut Oil in Cooking http://www.organicfacts.net Fri, 20 Nov 2009 23:08:05 +0100 FeedCreator 1.7.2 Paul http://www.organicfacts.net/organic-oils/organic-coconut-oil/uses-of-coconut-oil-in-cooking.html#josc2038 Hello, I started using coconut oil instead of olive oil and other oils when cooking but find the food sticks to the pan MUCH more. I have to scrub the pots and pans every time afterwards. I know there must be something I am not doing correctly. Do you have any suggestions? The pots/pans are very good pans (Emmeril). Thank you for your advice and help. - Paul Paul Sat, 28 Feb 2009 05:09:44 +0100 power of coconut oil http://www.organicfacts.net/organic-oils/organic-coconut-oil/uses-of-coconut-oil-in-cooking.html#josc2221 check this out roger Thu, 19 Mar 2009 15:40:46 +0100 Cooking with Coconut Oil http://www.organicfacts.net/organic-oils/organic-coconut-oil/uses-of-coconut-oil-in-cooking.html#josc2420 I have used coconut oil to cook with and was pleasantly surprised... 1. You can cook at a higher temperature and not have any smoking or odors. 2. It doesn\'t saturate into the food giving it a oily texture or flavor. 3. The food taste great. I still like olive oil, but each has their place in the kitchen.

After it is hot the food should not stick. I have Wolfgang Pucks pot and if I let them get hot not burning but hot then add the oil a small amt then the food do not stick, Hope Wed, 01 Jul 2009 15:32:36 +0100 food sticks if the oil is not hot enough http://www.organicfacts.net/organic-oils/organic-coconut-oil/uses-of-coconut-oil-in-cooking.html#josc4177 The key to your food not sticking to the pan is to make sure the pan is hot before adding the coconut oil. This oil has the ability to withstand a higher temperature than other oils without burning. So go ahead and make your pan reasonably hot before adding the oil. Bear in mind of course the required heat for the food you are about to cook.

I read somewhere that heating the pan before adding the oil is not helping the environment. veronique Thu, 19 Nov 2009 16:50:50 +0100
