[Sca-cooks] To oil or not to oil?

[otsisto]

>From a site on walnut oil.

"Once opened, all nut oils should be kept in a cool place out of the light
or refrigerated to prevent them from becoming rancid. Also, resist the urge
to stock up on large quantities of nut oils as they become rancid more
quickly than other vegetable oils."

Side note: "Walnut oil is not a cooking oil; high heat destroys its delicate
flavor."

Then came across this site;

I then found this which states contrary to the statement above.

I believe it doesn't...I have had the same bottle for a couple years and I
keep checking it..so far so good.  After each feast/event I wash my wooden
gear and then oil it to help protect it, etc.  I purchased mine at Central
Market here in Washington State.   It was recommended to me by a
professional chef awhile ago.
