EVOO has a smoke point of 350 to 410 degrees Fahrenheit (121 to 210 C), depending on the quality of the oil. The higher the quality, the higher the smoke point.  Plus, studies have shown that EVVO is incredibly stable even at high heat, likely due to its high amounts of saturated and monounsaturated fatty acids. That’s why it’s perfectly fine to bake or fry with extra virgin olive oil (despite what you might have heard in the news).
