a thick liquid substance that does not mix with water, used for cooking, fuel, or lubrication
a chef pours golden cooking oil from a bottle into a large stainless steel frying pan. The thick liquid flows smoothly in a steady stream, glistening as it hits the pan's surface. The oil spreads across the bottom of the pan, creating a shiny coating that doesn't mix with the water droplets from freshly washed vegetables nearby. Steam begins to rise as the oil heats up on the stovetop burner. A family member watches eagerly from behind, holding chopped vegetables ready to be cooked. The kitchen counter shows other oil bottles and cooking ingredients arranged around the cooking area. oil as a thick liquid substance used for cooking that does not mix with water
