Guest guest Posted April 15, 2008 Report Share Posted April 15, 2008 Does anyone know what a top temperature for flax oil would be? I put it in with my short grain brown rice last night and it made the rice really nice, but if it loses all of it's omegas, I don't want to do that anymore. I looked online and found that you shouldn't cook with it, and that it should be added to cooked food instead, but I was wondering if they meant frying with it. I suppose rice still gets pretty hot in a rice cooker, but I'm thinking the temperature is lower than frying.

Guest guest Posted April 15, 2008 Report Share Posted April 15, 2008 References I can find say 300 degrees F. An additional note is that internal temperature when baking is seldom above 212 degrees F (boiling point of water). Your rice cooker should switch from " cook " to " warm " as soon as 212 degrees F is reached, as that is the point at which all water has boiled off. So it looks like you should be safe. You should also be able to tell when you have reached too high a temp with your flax oil, as it will smell rancid or fishy.

Guest guest Posted April 16, 2008 Report Share Posted April 16, 2008 Great information, Pam. Thank you so much. I guess I'm safe. It smelled and tasted fine. Thanks again! ) Nichole Dallas-ish pdw <pdworkman wrote: References I can find say 300 degrees F.
