Which oil should you use for frying? Is butter really worse than margarine? In this episode of the Essential Skills series, Dark Cancer provides the ultimate guide to the cooking fats and oils in your kitchen, breaking down which are healthy and which you should avoid.
This is a practical, science-based tour of the grocery aisle. The host explains that all fats are made of different proportions of saturated, monounsaturated, and polyunsaturated fatty acids, which affects their health benefits and how they should be used in cooking.
