Im looking 4 a healthy type of oil 2 use 4 at home cooking instead of vegtable oil and i know olive oil is great but what else is the best after olive oil?
Grapeseed oil, sunflower oil, or avocado oil are all good. They have very high burning temperatures. Canola oil is OK, but it has a low burning temperature, which means it isn’t good for frying, and I don’t like the taste. All three are healthy, and sunflower oil (safflower is similar) is probably the healthiest of all.
What is the best type of oil to use for cooking other than olive oil?
How does Boysen oil tinting colors differ from artists’ oil colors in terms of composition?
Also, I want to know what kind of oil is the vehicle of Boysen oil tinting colors.
http://www.boysen.com.ph/oncolors.shtml
They are not oil, they are alkyd. That means that, in addition to oil, there is a resin of some kind in there. I’m guessing it will be a petroleum-based vehicle, not the linseed oil in artists’ oils. If you want to know the exact composition, you’ll have to read the side of the can, or contact Boysen.
You’ve asked about this product before. Again—they are designed to tint HOUSE PAINT. It is probably a fine product when used for its intended purpose, which is to mix evenly into a gallon of house paint. If you want to use them for painting canvases, go ahead. But the Boysen people are not creating art supplies, and were probably not concerned with things like how these colors will mix on a palette, or how well they will adhere to a canvas (the house paint is supposed to do the adhering), or how lightfast or colorfast they are (housepaint isn’t meant to last forever).
If you’re determined to prove these tinting colors will perform as well as oil paint for a lot less money, no one can stop you. But it would be ethical to disclose to anyone who wants to buy your work that you used housepaint tints, not oil paint.
Personally, as a professional, I would prefer to work in a less expensive REAL medium rather than waste precious money and time experimenting with a product of such dubious quality and permanence.
How do you discard the oil that you used for deepfrying?
This might be an absurd question. But in Japan, there is this powder that can harden oil. I just need to mix the powder into oil and the oil gets solid so I can just scoop it out and toss it into a garbage can. But in the states, how do you discard the oil that you used for deepfrying?
My friend actually gives his to someone that runs his car on it. The guy runs around to restraunts too and they give oil to him. This might be an idea, there might be a drop off place, otherwise at your local home improvement store you’ll find a product called Exorbant. It soak up the oil, into the powder, and you can toss out.
What will happen if you put new oil into a car without draining the old oil or changing the filter?
it is a Chrysler Town and country,
and my friends mom thinks it is alright to just add new oil where it says engine oil, without draining the oil, or changing the oil filter.
and she did it even though i tol her not to, causing the "engine oil" tube to overflow
thoughts?
I know, she is stupid.
Ohh Very bad !!! you should never fill the crankcase with more oil than the full mark on the dipstick…The pistons will slap on the oil causing it to froth then massive air gets in the pump bad bad bad then It blows the crank seals and pushes to much oil up on top of the head causing major valve cover leaking and maybe sucking oil in the vacum ports more bad bad… she should not drive it like this.. have someone remove the oil where it sits install a new filter and 4.5 quarts of oil. then check the dipstick after it runs about 3-4 minutes then top it off to the max fill line on the dipstick ….Thats it
Can i use olive oil instead of vegetable oil in my cake recipe?
I have olive oil which is mixed with canola oil but no veggie oil. And what can i use to substitute eggs in a cake?
I’ve tried using olive oil in my baked products. It came out pretty good. It is more expensive this way though but what can you do if it’s the only thing in your pantry. No need to get a vegetable oil. You can even melt butter for the equivalent amount needed for your cake. In most cakes/cookies etc., I just use melted butter. It’ll come out more delicious.
But, I’ve never substituted for eggs if they are listed in the recipe. I try to look for a recipe that don’t use eggs if I’m out. There are recipes of cakes (you can find them online) that don’t use eggs.
From looking online, though, I’ve found this:
What is a good substitute for eggs?
For: 1 egg in baking
Use: 1 tsp cornstarch plus 1/4 cup water
or
Ener-G Egg Replacer – follow directions on box.
2 tbsp corn starch = 1 egg
2 tbsp arrowroot flour = 1 egg
2 tbsp potato starch = 1 egg
1 heaping tbsp soy powder + 2 tbsp water = 1 egg
1 tbsp soy milk powder + 1 tbsp cornstarch + 2 tbsp water = 1 egg.
1 banana = 1 egg in cakes.
What is the best oil for your hair, and skin between coconut, jojoba and almond oil?
I’ve been researching, but still can’t get a simple answer. I’ve read a lot of good things about jojoba. Also for grapeseed oil, not so much about anything else. Almond oil works reallly good for my hair, jojoba works good for my skin as well as coconut, but the only problem is that i want one oil that can do it all.
While all the oils you mentioned are suitable for both hair and skin, I believe jojoba would be your best bet. Jojoba oil has been shown to be chemically similar to the oils found on your scalp and skin (called sebum), so it makes sense that jojoba oil would be the best choice. Having very long, fine, straight hair I find that I achieve the best results by using jojoba oil. It’s fairly light in comparison to coconut, but appears to leave my hair with a better texture than grapeseed or almond oil.
So, in the end, while all the oils you listed are good for your hair/skin, jojoba would probably be your best bet given it’s chemical makeup.
How do I change the oil pressure switch on a 1996 Chrysler Concorde?
I have the 3.3ltr V-6 and it has 119000 miles. The oil light comes on when I idle after the engine is warm. It is not low on oil although it does use a quart between oil changes. My best guess is the oil pressure switch. How do I change it? A link to a diagram would be nice too.
How much of a problem is worn engine bearings? The car seems to be running fine.
A special socket that’s available at any parts store is all that’s needed. Just locate the sending unit and unscrew it from the engine block. I’m presuming you have located the sending unit on the engine block. If it isn’t on top of the engine block, it’s usually located near the oil filter.
I don’t think your low oil pressure is a fault of the switch. My experience is that when these go bad, they fail completely (light on all the time). Worn engine bearings is probably the main reason for low oil pressure.
Is oil the most important issue that presidential candidates must address?
The future of oil does not look very bright. Within the next 7years, experts think there will be a global oil shortage. Industrialized countries will demand more gas and the supply will not be able to meet the demand. The consequences of a global oil shortage could be a nightmare.
President Obama said he will stand up to big oil, but shouldn’t the USA be focused on reducing its demand for oil. Obviously the higher the price of gas is, the more people will cut back on their driving.
What are the presidential candidates’ plans to reduce the USA’s demand for oil?
It needs to be addressed from multiple angles. First, the economy in general needs a jolt. If the value of the dollar would increase it would help to slow the quickly rising costs of oil. Second, we need to start seriously looking into other energy sources such as hydrogen, nuclear, solar, wind, to help get ourselves away from oil. Even if billions of dollars were poured into this it would still take 15 years to make a significant reduction in our dependence on fossil fuels. Third, we need to do something to address OPEC. We’ve poured TRILLIONS of dollars into protecting Saudi Arabia for the last 20 years and it’s time for them to pay up. We need to stop providing tax breaks to non-renewable energies in order to force them to look into alternate sources.
Neither candidate has released specific details of a plan, only a few key points of areas they would focus. I would expect it will be a major point of discussion at the upcoming conventions as the national avg. for gas at the time will likely be well above $4 per gallon.
What is the proper oil level on a motorcycle?
I have an 06 Suzuki SV650s and I just did an oil change, well the manuel to my understanding says to fill to the top line on your oil window. I did this but when the engine is running and you look into the window, you don’t see any oil. So should you be able to see the oil in the window when the bike is on and running?
Turn the bike off first.
Lean it totally upright, then fill it to the line in the window. It should say how many oz.’s it takes in your manual too.
The problem with filling it when the bike is on is that your oil is being spun up into your head and crankcase, so it’s not a valid reading-therefore you’ll overfill your engine with oil!
OIL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!?
Is there proof of non organic unlimted abiotc oil/ fuel?! If there is send me a link from your OFFICIAL SORCE. If not then what can we do before oil crashes?
Oil isn’t going to be running out any time soon. There are at least 1.3 trillion barrels remaining and much much more in oil sands and oil shale.
