From the label:
The Nutiva Organic Extra Virgin is not refined, deodorized or bleached. It is made without pesticides, GMOs or hexane. It is ideas as a high-heat cooking oil (Up to 350 degrees) as a nutritious substitute in baking, and as a "better-than-butter" replacement on bread, vegetables, or popcorn. Also a luscious oil for skin care, hair care and massage.
A diet that consists of a 3:1 ratio of Omaga-6 to Omega-3 is a good blance versus the average American diet, which consists of a ratio of approx 15:1or more. So avoid out-of-balance soyo, corn, and canola oils with their trans fates, oxidation, and GMOs. Coo\k with coconut oil, olive oil, and help oil for the perfect 3:1 Omega ratio.
My friend likes to oil his grill and say coconut oil burns off over 350 degrees. I don't know what would happen if you tried roasting at 450 degrees? |
