CORN OIL VS VEGETABLE OIL

Top Sous vide Which to Choose?

There are a lot of similarities between corn and vegetable oils. But they're not perfect substitutes! Here's what you need to know.

Vegetable oil is a generic term describing a neutral oil including soybean, canola, corn, or a blend.

Corn oil is also a neutral oil and is a vegetable oil specifically and exclusively derived from corn.

The smoke point of corn oil is 450°F. The smoke point of vegetable oil varies, but is commonly 428°F.

Corn oil is golden brown with a mild flavor. Vegetable oil is light in color and truly neutral in taste.

Corn oil is a great pick for deep frying, shallow frying, long bake times, and mayo. Vegetable oil is great for sautéing and dishes that call for a truly neutral oil to let the flavors shine.
