Let’s take a quick second to talk about our sponsor for this post, Mazola Corn Oil.

Is Corn Oil Healthy?

Mazola Corn Oil is an all-purpose, cholesterol free cooking oil that is a smart heart-healthy* choice for your family.

*See Mazola.com for more information on the relationship between corn oil and heart health. It has a variety of uses include baking, grilling, sautéing, stir frying, or mixing up a marinade or dressing.

I like using Mazola Corn Oil when I’m cooking because, as you know, I grill a lot! Every night from spring to fall, our grill is fired up and cooking.

Is Corn Oil Good For Frying?

One thing you may not realize is that cooking oils have different smoke points. Because Mazola has a high smoke point of 450°F, it performs well in a variety of cooking applications, including grilling and stir-frying.

Once the smoke point is exceeded, the oil can affect the flavor of your food in a negative way.

Another reason I like using corn oil is the reduced saturated fats and cholesterol when substituting it in place of butter in some recipes. So, simple swaps can make things a whole lot better for you.
