Refined avocado oil has the highest smoke point among cooking oils.
crude oil
Peanut, Soybean and Canola oils all have very high smoke points.
The smoke point of flax oil is around 225C (437F).
Generally the oil with the lowest smoking point is unrefined canola oil, at 225 degrees F, and one of the highest being avocado oil at 520 degrees F.
Smoke point: reaching this temperature the oil support a thermal dissociation (and degradation) process: formation of glycerol and fatty acids, acrolein, etc. A great smoke point is a quality for an edible oil. Flash point: temperature of combustion; the flash point is of course greater than the smoke point.
Coconut oil has a smoke point of about 350 degrees F (171 C), which means it is not suitable for high temperature cooking.
That depends on the type of canola oil and the type of peanut oil. If the canola is refined and the peanut is unrefined, the smoke point will go down. If they're both refined, the smoke point will go up, but not by very much.
Oil or fat begins to burn at its smoke point.
Vegetable oil reaches a smoke point before it reaches its boiling point. Its smoke point is around 495F and its boiling point edges up towards 572F.
The smoke point is the temperature at which oil or fat begins to produce smoke when heated. It is important in cooking because exceeding the smoke point can lead to the breakdown of the oil, creating a burnt or bitter flavor and potentially harmful compounds. It is crucial to use oils with a high smoke point for high-heat cooking methods to avoid this issue.
The best high smoke point oil to use when cooking steak for a perfect sear and flavor is avocado oil.
