Yes, Groundnut, Coconut, Safflower can be used for deep frying. In-fact, Safflower oil has the highest smoking point and is best for deep frying. We do not recommend deep frying in Sesame and Flax-seed Oil. Mustard oil has its peculiar pungent taste and is used for deep frying by few.
Why is refined oil bad?
Rejected oil seeds can be used in production of refined oil as the extraction heavily depends on chemical processes of distillation, deodorizing, de-colouring and bleaching. Refined oil also consists of palm oil and mineral oil which is harmful for the body in longer run. These oils have induced health issues in the current society and reduced the average life span.
