I've had different outcomes in terms of smell. Often I can't detect any, but maybe that's when it's potatoes or other neutral foods. I have a hypothesis that if my oil is the right temperature the food will not be oily and the oil will not be food-y. That's based on no science at all, just my uneducated brain that's been helping me cook meals since I was 8 years old. It may be that I believe it because I want to .
