I experienced that all the cooking oils tastes almost the same except olive oil. Olive oil has its own unique smell and taste. If you want to fry the chicken in oil I think you can use any of your choice it should not make a big difference. I don't like olive oil deep fried food mostly. I like canola or sunflower oil. Now its your choice if you like olive oil or not but any other oil will perform the same job.


good luck with your recipes.Can canola/vegtable oil substitute olive oil?
it may lose the fragrance of the olive -- so if you don't care for that- it should be OK
Yes, it won't make difference browning. Olive oil is just better for you. It won't take high temperatures anyway, but canola or vegetable will be fine for anything like that. They keep saying melt butter, thats good but real butter, cause margarine has water and will pop!
I would use half canola and some butter.
it could, but you would get a better taste if you melted some butter then added a bit of oil to the pan and heated that, as a substitute.
yes you can use as a substitute veg/canola oil. however, the tatse of the food will change because the oils taste different.
Absolutely. The only difference will be in the flavor and some nutrients.
Yes, vegetable oil can be substituted for olive oil as long as the recipe calls for regular olive oil. If it calls for extra virgin olive oil then you have to us extra virgin because the taste would be different.





In fact, many cooks substitute regular olive oil in place of vegetable oil on a regular basis when saut茅ing, pan frying, or browning.
Of course. Canola and refined olive oil have very similar compositions (high in monounsaturated fat and low in both saturated fat and polyunsaturated fat).
