you can't reuse the oil for anything after this though. such a huge waste of oil

Watched the whole thing even though I hate fish just because the science was so interesting. What else can I poach with this method?

I’m not getting paid enough to use this amount of olive oil

Actually oil feels cooler not because it has less total energy than water at the same temperature but because it has a lower thermal conductivity than water causing it to raise the temperature of your finger slower than water

That’s so cool to teach everyone to check hot oil with their finger.

140° F = 60° C / 180° F = 82° C / 250° F = 121° C. There, fixed.

user5502197663573 :
That’s not why it didn’t feel as hot though. Thst has all to do with the oils heat transfer coefficient which is separate from how much heat energy it can hold

what if I want the best of both worlds and just mix half water and half oil?

first step, go to the bank to get a loan for the olive oil

Yeah let me just use like $5 of olive oil with every meal I cook that’s cost effective

I never really thought about the thermal mass of oil being less than water, but it makes obvious sense because it's less dense.

So poached vs confit

So would a hot tub of oil feel better than a hot tub of water

Olive oil is a valuable source of healthy fats that must be consumed rather than just throw away after cooking your fish. Try corn oil then you can make your sauce with the olive oil.

If you're posting this on TikTok you really need to state that all your temperatures are in Fahrenheit. I know that America's Test Kitchen is an American show and that they use Fahrenheit in America, but on tiktok you have an international audience and you don't want people putting their finger into 140° Celsius oil! And yes I did notice that the thermometers said Fahrenheit, but not everyone may be as attentive.

Do people know you don't have to use olive oil?? There are so many cheap oils you can buy by the gallon
