- Q. How long will oil last, like peanut oil
Инструкции
- A. Different oils stay fresh for different amounts of time, but you must treat them all well. They should be tightly covered and stored in the dark away from the heat (especially not in which handy cupboard over the stove). The less access they have to the air, the fresher they will stay. Refrigeration benefits most oils.
- If unopened, peanut oil and corn and other vegetable oils will keep for at least a year. Once opened, they're good for four to six months. But peanut oil, like extra virgin olive oil, that is high in monounsaturates, benefits more from storage in the refrigerator. Extra virgin olive oil will keep for about 6 months in the cold, dark pantry, but up to a year in the refrigerator. It may become cloudy and thicken up in the cool, in that case, letting it hot to room temperature will restore its pouring capacity. Walnut oil and sesame oil are delicate and inclined toward turning rancid. Kept in the refrigerator, they will stay fresh for two to four months.
- As Sharon Tyler Herbst, author of The Food Lover's Tiptionary, says,
- "Never use an oil - particularly if you haven't used it in a while - without smelling and tasting it. A dish can easily be ruined by the smallest amount of rancid oil."
