There’s no shortage of cooking oils on supermarket shelves, but when it comes to high-heat cooking, not all are created equal. Many oils break down when exposed to high temperatures, releasing smoke and harmful free radicals. That’s where avocado oil shines.
What Makes a Good High-Heat Oil?
The key is the smoke point — the temperature at which an oil begins to burn. Oils like flaxseed or extra virgin olive oil smoke at lower temperatures, making them unsuitable for searing, roasting, or frying.
The Avocado Oil Advantage
Cold-pressed avocado oil has one of the highest smoke points of any natural oil — around 270°C. This makes it perfect for stir-fries, BBQs, and oven roasting. At The Avo Keeper, we craft our oil to maintain both its nutritional integrity and cooking performance, so you don’t need to compromise on health or flavour.
More Than Just Heat Stability Beyond handling high heat, avocado oil brings added nutritional benefits. It’s packed with heart-healthy monounsaturated fats and antioxidants that support overall wellness. Unlike refined seed oils, avocado oil remains stable without being stripped of its nutrients.
For anyone who loves cooking hearty meals without worrying about burning or losing flavour, avocado oil is a reliable pantry essential. Whether you’re flipping steaks on the grill or roasting veggies for the family, it’s an oil that works as hard as you do.
