How to Choose Frying Oil for your Restaurant

Most commercial kitchens cannot operate without a consistent supply of fresh cooking oil to prepare food in the fryers.  When commercial kitchens keep fresh cooking oil on hand, they can operate more efficiently and ensure they get through the lunch and dinner rushes.  The best way to keep your commercial kitchen stocked with fresh cooking oil is by working with a professional that provides cooking oil like Mahoney Environmental.  Foodservice establishments who work with us can schedule regular cooking oil deliveries through our Preferred Oil Program.

At Mahoney Environmental, we offer several different types of cooking oil to foodservice businesses that are part of our Preferred Oil Program.  Each type of cooking oil we offer is made from different ingredients and used for different purposes.  If you are not sure what type of cooking oil is best for your commercial kitchen, our professionals can work with you to determine the best oil based on the type of food you prepare, nutritional concerns, and the volume of customers you serve at your establishment.

The following are the types of cooking oil we offer:

Preferred^TM Zero Trans Fat Clear

Preferred^TM Zero Trans Fat Clear is a soybean oil that is bleached and deodorized.  This frying oil has additives for use in shortening applications and it also includes TBHQ for added stability and silicones for reduced foaming.

This oil needs to be stored at 65-75°F in a dry, odor-free space.  It should also be used within 12 months of its manufacture date.

Preferred^TM Creamy Soy

Preferred^TM Creamy Soy oil is made up of fully and partially hydrogenated ZT soybean oils and it is highly suitable for frying.  This oil is stable, and its creamy texture at room temperature makes it easy to handle.  It is also considered non-allergenic and GMO-free because it does not contain proteinaceous materials and it is refined, bleached, and deodorized.

Preferred^TM Corn Oil

Preferred^TM Corn Oil is considered the finest cooking oil available because it has been refined, bleached, de-waxed (winterized), and deodorized (RBWD).  Corn oil can be used in many food systems and applications because it has excellent stability and flavor characteristics.  Many prefer corn oil for its nutritional value because it is high in polyunsaturated fatty acids as opposed to saturated fats like many other oils.  Corn oil is also considered non-allergenic and it is free of GMOs and proteinaceous compounds.

Canola oil is also considered non-allergenic.

Preferred^TM Zero Trans Clear Canola should be stored in a dry and odor-free area.  It should be used within 12 months of the manufacture date.
