what is the best oil to use?olive maybe?

Answer 1

Fruity extra virgin every time, just dip crusty bread into it.

Deep fry with peanut oil.

Pan fry with ghee or vegetable oil.

Put sesame oil on your salad.

Make dressings with walnut oil.

Slide around nekkid on big tarps with tubs of crisco.

Answer 2

Yes, olive

You can't convert all recipes from solid shortening (butter/margarine) to liquid shortening (olive oil/vegetable oil). For instance, a cake frosting must stay solid at room temperature so a quick frosting made with butter and powdered sugar would work, olive oil and powdered sugar wouldn't.

Then there is the taste. A mild tasting late harvest olive oil would probably work OK in most cake and pastry recipes because cooking will get rid of the aromatic olive oil flavors. Uncooked confections such as the cake frosting would taste more than a bit unusual if made with olive oil.

For most main course dishes where margarine or butter is being used for frying or sautéing, olive oil could be readily substituted. In olive oil producing countries the flavors of olive oil and butter/margarine are used to enhance each other in some recipes.

Answer 3

Extra Virgin Olive Oil but it depends what you are using it for. Olive Oil is generally not recommended for Deep Oil frying etc. It's very good for salads, etc...

Answer 4

depends what you are using it for, dressings etc extra virgin olive oil is a must, the 1st pressing, cooking i generally use virgin olive oil, the 2nd pressing, on the rare occasion i deep fry, ie scampi etc, i use sunflower oil, but only use it once, never keep oil for a second use, its flavour drastically changes,for flavouring a stir fry for example a nut oil would be ideal, nut oil is VERY strong in flavour and should be used sparingly, in short, your question is use dependant, give a specific and it will be easier to answer

Answer 5

depends what your using it for.
olive is for flavor but it has a very low smoke point, so it burns fast.
canola is the best for frying, but if you wanna spend the bucks get some peanut, sunflower, or grape seed oil. most of these oils have no effect on the flavor of the food your cooking.
