If there is one ingredient that a commercial kitchen cannot function effectively without—it is cooking oil. No matter what you aim to cook or prepare, cooking oil takes the primary focus in all your kitchen activities.   

Choosing the right type of cooking oil for your commercial kitchen is an imperative decision as it directly affects your finished product. But how do you choose the right one for your business and ensure that you get a steady supply of it?  

Cookers is the first name which comes to mind when talking about bulk cooking oil. With cooking oils no longer than 2 weeks old, freshness is guaranteed when you choose Cookers. Their oils are consistently high in quality, have a longer frying life and do not leave an oily after-taste.  

Cookers Bulk Cooking Oils 

With a wide array of varieties, Cookers provides you with an option to choose from Canola Oil, Extra Virgin Olive Oil, Sunflower Oil, Cottonseed Oil or opt for one of their premium oil blends like XLFRY and ULTAFRY based on your culinary needs.  

Being a Certified National Supplier of fresh cooking oil, Cookers have a number of accreditations including ISSC, SQF, BSI HACCP & GMP, ARA, Kosher, Halal & Organic certification under their wing. Renowned for being food safety and specific dietary requirements certified, Cookers specialises in providing tailored cooking oil solutions to suit your business needs.    

Different oils serve different purposes, and it is essential to keep in mind the texture, flavour and smoke point while choosing the right one for your business. In case your kitchen is more inclined towards deep frying, you would want to use an oil with a high smoke point like the Cookers XLFRY, Cottonseed or High Oleic Sunflower Oil which are ideal for tolerating longer durations of high temperatures. 

On the other hand, if you need cooking oil for curries, stir fry, dips, marinades and gravies you should be using a neutral flavoured oil with low smoking point like the Cookers Canola Oil. Alternatively, if your cooking aligns with organic foods, you are better off using specialised organic oils like the Cookers Organic Canola or Organic High Oleic Sunflower Oil. 

However, along with being essential, cooking oil can also be a menace for kitchens if not handled with care. From the hazards of manually handling oil (hot or cold) to the safe disposal of used cooking oil, managing the life cycle of this vital product is something every venue serving food needs to think about. 

With over 22 years of foodservice experience, Cookers is known not just for their wide selection of locally manufactured oils but also their innovative cooking oil management solutions.
