Can you use Canola Oil instead of Olive Oil?

sure, it will just give it a different flavor and fragranceCan you use Canola Oil instead of Olive Oil?
Yeah, but it won't have the same flavor.Can you use Canola Oil instead of Olive Oil?
For what? If you are cooking with it then yes. If you are not cooking it you will not get that olive oil flavor.
Of course you can.I do it all the time
For frying, yes, for general cooking, yes. For salad dressing etc., yes. It just depends on why you want to use the canola versus the olive oil. Olive oil is great for health reasons and for taste and flavor. Canola is great for frying because it has a higher burning level, and if you don't want the olive flavor in foods, canola would be a good healthy choice.
thats like asking if you could substitute salt for pepper.





all sarcasm aside, both oils have different uses. if its taste you're going for then i recommend olive oil. if you're trying to save money then use canola oil. if you're trying to fry something try using grapeseed oil or peanut oil. they not only make your fried food taste great, but they last long as well. just make sure that after frying you strain out all the gritty stuff. reasearch different kinds of oils you can use for cooking. you'll find out alot of great things such as smoking points, flavors etc.
yes and its actually healthier
yeah of course you can its much better and healthier. I always use that if I don't have olive old please do use it. it would be great........
Yep ! They are both monosaturated fat. Olive has more flavor,


but Canola oil is better for deep frying and it is cheaper.
It depends for what but on the whole, yes. They don't taste the same.





Canola oil can be used at a higher temperature than olive oil in frying.
Sure, but I always use olive oil when something I cook requires the use of oil.
Yes, you can. You can substitute equal for equal although it won't have quite the same flavor.
Sure. Keep an eye on the temp so the oil doesn't smoke. Unless you are using it as a dressing, then no, nothing beats extra virgin olive oil.
Sure you can, the only difference will be flavor and burning point of the oil and some difference in the nutritional aspect. I prefer for everything olive oil because the quality and nutritional aspects are higher.
If you want the authentic flavor in most Italian dishes you should use extra virgin olive oil. If you don't like that, and are more into the american style, the canola oil is fine.
I gasped when I seen your question. Heaven's no dear, the ONLY acceptable substitute for olive oil is Quaker States 10W-30. This will bring out the natural flavors of anything cooked in it Remember, though, to change your cooking oil every 3-5 thousand miles.
