| has gloss | eng: Cooking spray is a spray form of various types of oils, combined with lecithin, an emulsifier, and a propellent such as food-grade alcohol, nitrous oxide, carbon dioxide or propane. Cooking spray is applied to frying pans and other cookware to prevent food from sticking. Traditionally, cooks used butter, shortening, or oils poured or rubbed on cookware. Most cooking sprays have fewer calories per serving than an application of vegetable oil, because they are applied in a much thinner layer. Popular brands include Pam and Crisco. |
