About Oil, soybean, salad or cooking
Soybean oil is the most-produced cooking oil in much of the world and is what fills most bottles simply labeled "vegetable oil". Light, neutral and inexpensive, it turns up everywhere from home frying pans to processed and packaged foods.
It is high in polyunsaturated fat — mainly the omega-6 fat linoleic acid, with a smaller amount of plant omega-3 — and low in saturated fat. Like every pure oil it is calorie-dense, at about 884 calories per 100 grams, with no carbohydrate or protein. Its mild flavor and good heat tolerance are what make it such a versatile all-rounder.
Because it is so widely used and so neutral, soybean oil is less a flavor ingredient than a cooking medium. If a recipe just says "vegetable oil", this is almost certainly what it means.
