Question: Would it be ok to mix olive oil in with vegetable oil while frying doughnuts!?
I ran out of vegetable oil and I was wondering if I could use just a bit of olive oil with the vegetable oil without ruining everything!? Www@FoodAQ@Com


Answers:
No!. Olive oil is bad for deep frying because it has a lower burning temperature than vegetable oil!. It will smoke up & give your doughnuts a nasty flavor!. Never use olive oil when making something sweet!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

Okay, just gonna add something else here!.

Besides the flavor of olive oil being terrible with donuts, olive oil (especially extra virgin) has a very low smoke point, far below that of frying temperatures, which will just make it taste burnt and nasty!.

If you have solid shortening (like crisco), that works great for deep frying!. It will have a stronger smell than the straight oil, but you wont get nasty olive taste or nasty burnt taste!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

definitely not!. Mixing oils for deep frying in not recommended especially in the food service (restaurant) business!. Olive oil smokes at a temperature not hot enough to fry donuts!. extra virgin olive oil burns and catches fire at just over 300 degrees!. just go to the store or to the neighbors and ask for a little!. then return to the neighbor with a couple of donuts!Www@FoodAQ@Com

Oh, I would not do that!? Olive Oil is great for Italian cooking, stews, etc!. but not for frying a donut!. You are going to get an olive oil taste and that plus dough-nuts just does not sound good!. Www@FoodAQ@Com

no, it will ruin everything!. olive oil has olive flavor, and vegetable oil or canola oil has little or no flavor!.!.!.!.!.!.!.!.!.mmmmmmmmmmmm!.!.!.!.olive donuts>!.!.!.I don't think so!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

I would only do it as a last resort and ONLY if it isn't EXTRA VIRGIN olive oil!. The flavor of the extra virgin olive oil could be overpowering!.!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

It isn't recommended mixing oils if you are deep frying!.
You wouldn't ruin the dish but the oils would need to be dumped!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

I wouldn't simply because the olive oil has a flavour to it that may change the taste of your donuts!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

It migght taste funky!.
