      BTW do you know what type of olive oil for what use? I read it somewhere but can't find it now. For example cold pressed is for salad, etc


      I kaypo answer. The NTUC housebrand range of oil hv a tag to indicate whether the oil is for cooking or not.

      I am using its Extra Light Olive Oil now. Tried its Grapeseed oil, dun really like it - cant explain exactly the reason, just the flavour of the cooked food seems not matching with grapeseed oil.

      If I need to deep fry (which I seldom do), I will buy a small bottle of Knife peanut cooking oil.

      Due to lack of space, I do not buy the big bottle. Even sesame oil and cooking wine, I buy only the smallest bottle.

      My MIL is using a 米糠油 (rice bran oil, dunno which brand). I do not like the flavour. Her vegs always hv a weird taste.

      If space is not a constraint, one can always buy the big bottle, then pour out a small portion for daily use into a oil dispenser and keep the big bottle in a cool area, away from the sun/stove.

      I do this for the light soya sauce, a small amount in a sauce dispenser, the original bottle in the fridge.

      I thought i am the only one....everything i bot,including canned or dried food,oso small bottle or packet.My kitchen is very small,fridge oso very small.At times,i feel very frustrated coz hv to remember what's running out(since these r most small bottles) n keep arranging the food in the cabinet.

      i use Rice Bran oil,i like it.I don't like soy bean oil,too liquid...

              okok, before it closes down right?

              There is already a Ubber in that area, wonder how this new ice cream parlour is going to fare.

              Btw, the Bt Timah Food Centre also has a ice cream stall, think open late afternoon. Night time more customers, can see many youngsters sitting outside the stall.
