Oil is a versatile cooking fat derived from plants, animals, or seeds, widely used in cuisines around the globe. Common types include olive oil, coconut oil, canola oil, and sesame oil, each lending unique flavors and textures to dishes. Oils are primarily composed of fats, including saturated, monounsaturated, and polyunsaturated fats, which influence their health impact. Monounsaturated fats, found in olive and avocado oils, are heart-healthy and can support cholesterol balance, while polyunsaturated fats, like those in sunflower and flaxseed oil, provide essential omega-3 and omega-6 fatty acids. However, oils high in saturated fats, such as palm and coconut oil, may contribute to cholesterol buildup if consumed in excess. Oils are calorie-dense, so moderation is key. They are widely used for frying, sautéing, baking, and dressings, making them a cornerstone ingredient in Mediterranean, Asian, and Middle Eastern cuisines. Opt for minimally processed oils for maximum health benefits.
