What it is

Refined soybean oil is a vegetable oil extracted from soybeans. It is processed to remove impurities, resulting in a neutral-tasting oil. This refining process also removes most of the soy protein, which is the source of soy allergens.

Why it's used

Manufacturers use refined soybean oil as a cooking oil and as an ingredient in many processed foods. Its neutral flavor and liquid state at room temperature make it versatile for frying, baking, and as a base for dressings and sauces.

Health notes

Refined soybean oil is generally recognized as safe (GRAS) by the FDA for use in food. It is a source of polyunsaturated and monounsaturated fats, which are considered healthier fats. The Joint FAO/WHO Expert Committee on Food Additives (JECFA) has evaluated soybean oil, and the European Food Safety Authority (EFSA) has also assessed its safety.

Allergen info

Soybean oil is derived from soybeans, which are one of the nine major allergens identified by the FDA. However, the refining process typically removes enough soy protein to be non-allergenic.
