EDIBLE OILS ( COOKING OIL)

COOKING OIL  IS PLANT ANIMAL OR SYENTIC FAT USED IN FRIYING BAKING AND OTHER TYPES OF COOKING .IT IS ALSO USED IN FOOD PREPARATION AND FLAVORING THAT DOESN'T INVOLVE HEAT.SUCH AS SALAD DRESSING AND BREAD DIPS AND IN THIS SENSE MIGHT BE MORE ACCURATELY TERMED EDIBKE OIL.THEY ARE ALSO IMPORTANT FIR INDUSTRIAL PURPOSES. ALTHOUGH THE VEGETABLES OILS HAVE BEEN USED FOR AGES BUT THE COMMERCIAL VALUE OF THE OILS CONTAINED IN THE VAST NUMBERS OF PLANT HAS RECENTLY BEEN APPRECIATED. THE INCREASED DEMAND HAS CAUSED ENORMOUS INCREASE IN THE PRODUCTION OF VEGETABLES OILS.MOST OF THE ARE EXTRACTED FROM THE FRUITS OR SEEDS OF PLANT OF AL SIZE WHICH GROWIN MANY PARTS OF THE WORLD UNDER VARIED CONDITION OF CLIMATE AND SOIL.MOST OF THE CROPS FROM WHICH OIL IS EXTRACTED HAVE BEEN GROWN FOR CENTURIES BUT FEW OF THEM ARE REGARDED SOLELY AS PRODUCERS OF OIL,SUCH AS COCONUT, PLAM NUT,MUSTRADS(RAPE SEED),SOYA BEAN AND OLIVE ETC.THOUGH THEY ARE USED FOR DIFFERENT PURPOSES BUT OIL IN HAS BEEN REGARDED AS THEIR MAIN PRODUCTS.PALM OIL IN WET TROPICAL AREAS RAPESEED IN SUB TROPICAL AREAS ARE GROWN BASICALLY FOR OIL.SOME VEGETABLES OILS ARE THE BY PRODUCTS OF OTHER CROPS E.G.. COTTON SEEDS.COTTON IS GROWN FOR FIBER NOT FOR THE SAKE IF SEED BUT OIL IS EXTRACTED  FROM COTTON SEEDS....
OILS FORM VEGETABLES SOURCES ARE NOW OBTAINED MORE EASIKY BY TECHNICAL IMPROVEMENT ABND QUALITY OF OIL HAS ALSO BEEN IMPROVED WITH THE INCREASE IN DEMAND  AND OIL PRODUCERS OF TROPICAL AND TEMPERATURE COUNTRIES HAVE INTENSIFIED PRODUCTION AND. INCREASE EFFICIENCY AND IMPROVE THE QUALITY OF THE OIL PRODUCED.FOR EXAMPLE SOUTH EAST ASIAN COUNTRIES HAVE IMPROVED THEIR PLAM OILS WHILE USA OUTPUT OF SOYA BEANS HAVE EXPANDED BY MORE THAN THREE TO FOUR TIMES AND RUSSIA HAS GIVEN MORE ATTENTION TO INCREASE THE PRODUCTION OF SUN FLOWER..
THE CONSUMPTION OF EDIBLE OIL HAS ENORMOUSLY BEEN INCREASED AFTER 1960.
  TWO IMPORTANT REASON BEHIND ARE!
(A) THE ANIMAL FATS ARE NOT ENOUGH TO MEET THE INCREASING DEMAND BOTH FOR FOOD STUFF AND INDUSTRIAL PURPOSE FOR WHICH VEGETABLES OIL SUCH AS A SUBSTITUTE HAS BEEN INTRODUCED E.G. MARGARINE GOR BUTTER COOKING OIL FOR BUTTER OR GHEE AND FOR MAKING OF SOAPS OIL IS USED INSTEAD OF FAT...
(B) MANY NEW USES  ARE FOUND FOR OILS SUCH AS PAINTS AND VARNISH..

  THE PRINCIPAL VEGETABLES OILS OF THE WORLD ARE PALM OIL COCONUT OIL GROUNDNUT OIL SOYA BEAN OIL OLIVE OIL COTTON SEED OIL LINSEED OIL RAPESEED OIL SESAME OIL SUN FLOWER OIL AND CASTER OIL..
