Kitchen TipsOil is the most important ingredient for cooking, no vegetable, paratha or any kind of dish can be made without cooking oil. But these days fake oil is coming in the market in large quantities and due to low prices, people are using this fake oil.
This fake oil can be very harmful for your health and can also cause heart and brain damage, so today we tell you how you can identify real and fake oil (how to check purity of cooking oil).
In this way, identify real and fake oil
1. If you use olive oil in cooking and want to check for adulteration in it, then pour oil in a glass, cover it with your hand and rub the glass from outside with the other hand. When it becomes slightly warm, remove your hand from the glass and smell it, if there is a smell coming from it, it means it is fake olive oil.
– If you use mustard oil for cooking, then to check its purity, put mustard oil in a pan and heat it until strong smoke comes out of it. If even after the smoke comes out, it is smelling and it is turning black, then it means that it is fake mustard oil.
– You can also identify real and fake oil by looking at the colour. Peanut oil is a little thick and is dark brown in colour. On the other hand, sunflower oil is light and is light in colour, so always buy oil by looking at the colour.
– To check the purity of the oil, take a small amount of oil in a clean container and freeze it in the freezer, if the oil is pure then it will solidify and if the oil is adulterated then it will float like a liquid.
To check adulterated oil, take a little oil on your finger and rub it, if it loses its greasiness and starts feeling rough, then understand that the oil has gone bad.
