THANK YOU for this post! I am trying to cut out as many processed foods as I can from our house and this is some helpful information.

Paula,
Added the lard to the frying list, thank you! Safflower oil is just high in omega-6s, see this post and some of the comments for more: http://www.kitchenstewardship.com/2009/10/19/food-for-thought-are-polyunsaturated-oils-healthy/. Expeller pressed would at least be better than high-heat pressed. But. For baking I’ve like the coconut oil and melted butter, although it is nice to have a liquid oil on hand, I understand! Katie

Paula, I would recommend not using safflower oil. Weston A. Price foundation recommends not using safflower oil. The reason is that safflower oil is high in omega 6’s.

I used non-hydro shortening for biscuits this weekend—-we could not tell the difference. (there wasn’t a side by side comparison ’cause I’m not making two versions of breakfast) I’ll let you know how my Christmas cut-out cookies turn out.

Don’t forget lard for high smoke point. It takes a lot to burn this, ask me how I know LOL.

What do you think about safflower oil that says “expeller pressed”? I’ve been using that in place of vegetable oil when baking. I don’t use it often, but I have been using it.
