Most of us have a staple cooking grease--whether olive oil, canola oil or just plain butter--that we use on a regular basis, but it's always good to know what the best (and healthiest) cooking options are. Most research shows that, if used in moderation, oil, butter and margarine aren't completely unfriendly towards most diets. However, there are slight differences in intended use and good vs. bad fat content. Below, get the basics for your next pan-handling adventure in the kitchen.

Canola Oil: Recognized by the American Dietetics Association and American Heart Association for its good-to-bad fat ratio and beneficial omega-3 fatty acids, canola oil is derived from a specially cultivated version of rapeseed. Its name is a shortened version of the phrase "Canadian oil, low acid"; the first canola plants were bred in Canada and lead to lower levels of erucic acid (which, at the time, was believed to have an adverse affect on the heart). Recommended Use: Stir-frying and baking

Palm Oil: Palm kernel oil (subtracted from the pit of the fruit) is unfavorably compared to palm oil (extracted from the fruit)--though research suggests that neither of the two versions is terribly healthy. Palm kernel oil is often preferred by manufacturers due its low cost, availability and melting characteristics, though palm oil is considered the healthier of the due to its lesser saturated fat content and higher antioxidant levels. Recommended Use: Frying.
