Default Re: What's the best oil?

I picked up a Plantain from the store and made Tostones today. I used the vegetable oil (soybean) that I had on hand and they came out ok, but rather tasteless. I can see where butter would give them a lot of flavor, but high heat would tend to burn the butter...and I don't like that. would you cook at lower heat for longer?

I'm going to pick up different oils and try each one to test the differences.
