Here is what the International Olive Oil Council (IOOC) has to say about frying food with olive oil: When heated, olive oil is the most stable fat, which means it stands up well to high frying temperatures. Its high smoke point (410ÂºF or 210ÂºC) is well above the ideal temperature for frying food (356ÂºF or 180ÂºC).
Use it for Cooking. Coconut oil is ideal for cooking because almost 90% of its fatty acids are saturated, making it extremely stable at high temperatures. It also has a high smoke point of 350Â°F (175Â°C). Coconut oil is semi-solid at room temperature and melts at 76Â°F (24Â°C).
