Q: What is the best kind of oil for frying a whole turkey. I am looking for something somewhat healthy. Don't say just bake it...cause the whole family wants fried.
A: Only oils that have high smoke points should be used. Such oils include peanut, refined canola, corn oil and sunflower. Canola oil is low in saturated fats and would be appropriate to combine with peanut oil if fat and cholesterol are a concern.
