Do you have a source for that? It's pretty easy to google the smoke points and most charts indicate olive oil is fine for sautéing but not for frying.
- karakot 4y agoThere are several types of olive oils. Extra virgin (with lowest smoking point) is mostly used raw in salads and dressings, etc. Pure or refined(with highest smoking point) mostly used for cooking.
- dendrite9 4y agoDo you fry in >400 degree oil? There are many foods that are fried in olive oil for example in Spanish food. It seems fine since most frying is done well below the smoke point.
