Holistic Chef's Tip

Avoid Olive Oil at High Temperatures

 Olive oil is a popular oil both for dressings and for cooking. However, olive oil is NOT suitable for high heat cooking. Exposing your favorite EVOO to high temperatures will turn it into a carcinogenic (cancer promoting) substance. Stick with oils such as coconut oil when cooking with higher temperatures.
