How to store cooking oil so it doesn't spoil quickly.

Storing oil so it doesn't spoil quickly requires attention to several important factors such as temperature, light, air and humidity. Here are some effective ways to store oil so that it stays fresh and doesn't spoil quickly.

1. Store in a dark place.

Oil should be stored in a dark place because exposure to light, especially sunlight, can speed up the oxidation process which causes the oil to go rancid. Use a dark colored bottle or store it in a closed cupboard.

2. Stable and cool temperature.

Store the oil at a stable room temperature, ideally between 15-20 degrees Celsius. Do not store oil near heat sources such as a stove or oven because heat can damage the quality of the oil.

3. Close tightly.

Air can cause oxidation of the oil, so make sure to always close the oil bottle tightly after use. Use containers with airtight lids to reduce contact with oxygen.

4. Use a small bottle.

If possible, transfer the oil to a smaller bottle to reduce the amount of air that enters each time the bottle is opened. This also helps in consuming the oil faster before the quality degrades.

5. Keep away from strong-smelling chemicals.

Oil can absorb odors from chemicals or strong-smelling foods around it. Store the oil in a separate place from these ingredients to avoid odor contamination.

6. Do not store in the refrigerator (except certain oils).

Some types of oil, such as olive oil, can become cloudy and thicken when stored in the refrigerator. While this does not compromise its quality, it does need to be returned to room temperature before use. However, some special oils, such as flaxseed oil, should be stored in the refrigerator.

7. Pay attention to expiration dates.

Always check the expiration date on the oil packaging. Although the oil can last a long time, it is better to use the oil before the expiration date to ensure the best quality.

8. Avoid contamination.

Don't dip a dirty spoon or other utensil into the oil bottle because this can introduce dirt and bacteria that can speed up the oil's deterioration.

By following these tips, you can ensure that the oil you use stays fresh and high quality for longer.
