I don’t know if there was much interpretation. It broke down the science well enough or at least offered theories.
Having some good success and failure I am willing to try a few ideas in the article.
One variation a YouTuber offered was to heat the oil in the pan on the stove and then wipe the excess.
So far I have duplicated a lot of points in the article with different success ratios. I do agree a long smoke rate, upside down and long cooling period is ideal.
I use the grill so I don’t worry about the smoke generation.
More or less I’ve used this on the last successful project, but with corn oil. I went with a hybrid seasoning oil recently and I’m not impressed. I’ll try flax next.
