Questoin about oven-roasting in olive oil
I read recently that it's important not to get an oil past its smoke point, and well, my mother has a LOT of extra virgin olive oil so that's about all I can cook with. But it appears to have a smoke point of 375 F, and I typically oven roast at 450. I'm thinking of trying oven roasting at 350 instead, but would this possibly adversely affect the vegetables (as in, make them less crispy and mushy instead)? I'm just trying to be as healthy as possible here! =D
