Comment on Extra Virginity: The Sublime and Scandalous World of Olive Oil (2012)Comments−powertower13yPersonally, I only use grapeseed oil. I've tried olive, it's too heavy. Tried canola, it's okay. But grapeseed is amazing. It has no particular flavor, you could drink it and not become sick from the heavy load that typical oils will give you, etc.−tptacek13yI cook in grapeseed, but use olive oil for every raw application.−Mikeb8513y+1For cooking, grape seed is the best. I've worked in alot of top restaurants, for cooking they use grape seed exclusively.Extra virgin olive oil should only be used when you want the specific flavour it provides (ie. drizzled on things like pizza, pasta, bread, etc...).
