Oil has a higher boiling point than water and so reaches a higher temperature than water which is important for most foods. In addition, oil has more flavour than water.
It's better to your health to avoid cooking in oil. Cook your foods in water and add a tablespoon of extra-virgin olive oil, after your food is ready.
the answer is oil
Coconut oil is not very volatile. It has the same boiling point with water. But water vaporizes quicker than cooking oil.
Yes, oil cooks food faster than water because oil has a higher heat capacity and can reach higher temperatures than water. This allows for faster heat transfer and more efficient cooking.
You can cook an egg without using oil by boiling it in water or by baking it in the oven.
Water boils and if it cooks too long evaporates ( science) into a gas. It is not flammable. Oil on the other hand is flammable and will "fry" what-ever is put into it. Anything can cook in water ( vegetables, meats, fruit) but it is boiled.
gasorheating / cooking oil vs machine oil
Depends on what you need it for... It's better for drinking, I can tell you from experience. But I wouldn't recommend frying eggs with it.
Grease foams when you cook because of the presence of water or food particles in the hot oil. The water evaporates rapidly, creating steam that gets trapped in the oil, causing it to foam. This can happen when cooking foods with high water content or when the oil is overheated.
Yes they are healthier for you than the synthetic oil.
other person:you must be in dr. okwoche's Biology class when i get the answer i will let you know imadancer: i have the same worksheet. I believe its ethanol, because it absorbs oil better than water. Oil is not water-soluble. I think that is the answer, but make sure first.
Water-based is usually cheaper than oil-based ink. Initial purchase, waste disposal and clean-up costs are all lower.
