What type of cooking fat can I use on Carbon Nonstick?Updated 2 months ago

You can cook with any type of fat you’d like: olive oil, neutral oils, butter, tallow. We generally recommend high-smoke-point oils if you’re cooking on high heat to avoid smoking, burning, and sticking. We generally do not recommend spray oils because they contain lecithin, which bonds to the surface of the pan and makes it less nonstick.

Tip: Contrary to popular belief, olive oil can be used at high heat if it’s high-enough quality. A lot of lower quality olive oils are refined, processed, or mixed with poor quality oil. Look for oils that aren't in clear or plastic bottles. High-smoke point oil typically comes with harvest dates and expiration dates on the labels.
